Tom,

Maybe this should be added to the collection (with icons) in the

Would you care  to do the honors?

Random notes on WebOS's Enyo

Martin Langhoff — 2012-05-25T17:47:48

There's been recent discussions about running HTML5 "apps" in Sugar
and/or the OLPC OS, just like WebOS does. A bit earlier today on
irc...

(slightly edited for clarity)

[12:21:29] <cscott> cjb: hp's webos team has apparently been hired en
bloc by google
[12:21:45] <cscott> http://www.theverge.com/2012/5/24/3042441/hp-enyo-google
[12:22:11] <cscott> "what this means for the future of webos is unclear"
[12:30:53] <cscott> hp clarified -- it's not the *entire* webos team,
just the engineers "responsible for 99% of the code"
[12:45:04] <martin_xsa> ah, it's not any random part of webos, it's
the part I like :-)
[12:45:13] <martin_xsa> now I know the name - Enyo
[12:52:50] <cscott> yeah, enyo looks like it was actually getting
somewhere with its version 2.0
[12:53:08] <cscott> there are iphone and android apps in the app
stores using enyo already

If anyone is playing around looking for a runtime / sandbox
environment, Enyo and ChromeOS's shell are probably top of the list...

cheers,

[Announce] [IAEP] Mageia-2 has task-sugar 0.95.1 and sugar-emulator

Thomas C Gilliard — 2012-05-25T14:10:41

Great News;

Mageia-2  has task-sugar 0.95.1 and sugar-emulator. [1]
This is another Community Distribution for sugar [2]
Ranked 6 in Distrowatch [3]

(Mageia is the independent fork of Mandriva built by a majority  of the 
Mandriva developers.)

-there are some missing headers in applications, but sugar works well.

Runs Gnome3  in fallback mode in VirtualBox
This is just released
Gnome 3.2.1

Re: First impressions of a new XO user

James Cameron — 2012-05-25T03:46:27

That reminds me.

Got sick of having to tell people on IRC not to read the rest of the
page, and made a different page with only the XO-1 installation
section on it:

http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Release_notes/11.3.0/Installation/XO-1

Re: First impressions of a new XO user

Bernie Innocenti — 2012-05-25T03:35:40

I sent Diego a link [1] to the latest OLPC release for the XO-1, In case
he gets tired of dogfooding development images for us.

Though I hope he doesn't give up so easily: parents who are also Linux
engineers make very valuable testers.

Sugar Digest 2012-05-24

Walter Bender — 2012-05-24T21:42:44

== Sugar Digest ==

1. Sugar 0.96 has been officially released. You can read all about it at [1].

2. Guzmán Trinidad has posted some great videos of various physics
investigations on the XO (See [2]).

3. EduJAM! presented awards for the best Sugar activities [3].
Although they were not singled out in any special way, the youth of
Uruguay managed to walk away with six of the prizes. Congratulations
to Christofer, Agustin, Daniel, et al. for your contributions. A tip
of the hat to the adult contributors too: Flavio, Gabriel, Alan,
Andres, and Alejandro.

By my rough estimate, approximately 10% of all Sugar activities have
been written by kids who grew up on Sugar. It would interesting to
understand the phenomenon. But we must be doing something right.

I did learn that Christofer has been in an on-going dialog with
Rosamel Ramirez, a teacher in Duranzo about his activity development.
Their latest collaboration is JAMuliples [4]. Good stuff.

4. Some of you may be following the discussion about "New Co." on

Hi Alan,

2012/5/22 Alan Jhonn Aguiar Schwyn <alanjas< at >hotmail.com>:

As the new co-maintainer of sugargame, I just updated the test
activity inside the repository, and extended it so you can change the
direction of the bouncing ball with left and right keys.  If you pull
the changes you can test if works for you.  No change in sugargame was
needed.

Maybe your activities are missing the call to grab_focus() in the
canvas?  That was the only change needed in TestActivity.py, look at
it here:

That is a problem. But generally, in Sugar, activities would not be
accessing the removable file system directly, so we should have few
issues with activities.

Alan Jhonn Aguiar Schwyn — 2012-05-24T19:47:22


Hi,
I'm testing in my XO 1.0 the build 12.1 (Sugar 0.96.1)
I connect a pendrive and it is mounted on: /run/media/olpc
Why?
It's a new mechanism for Fedora 17?
