Que chaqu'un mette le Country Box
4. Que chaqu'un mette ce "Country_Box" dans le wikipage du pays de vacance de ses rêves, que chaque membre du diaspora mette cette "Country_box" dans le wiki page du pays de ces ancètres. Celui qui fait aura aidé OlpCO2e qui a besoin du status de chaque pays pour les negotiations avec les financiers ! Vous recevrez une surprise quand vous aurez montrez que c'est fait.--SvenAERTS 21:56, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
Smoketest
Yep, my wife and the kids asked me where I had been hanging out again ... all that smoke in my clothes ... :) Who are we kidding ... here's the real story:
Our OLPCeu-Giulia asked "don't forget to:
- Bring your laptop if you have one! - Bring a 4GB USB stick (or at least >1GB) - Bring a printout of the smoketest http://wiki.laptop.org/go/1_hour_smoke_test - The mission this Thursday: setup the latest Sugar-on-a-Stick (rawhide) image and run through a smoketest with it.

Yesterday we had the 2nd meeting in Brussels -- this time at a Swedish trade representation office, thanks to our kind hosts for the place and connectivity.
The first meeting was mainly social, a bit of getting to know people and going through the 1hr smoketest on XOs running 8.2.1 -- a good first encounter with software that has already been QAd. "This is how it looks when it works" :-)
On this second meeting we had a chance to play with SoaS on 2 OTS laptops, as well as one XO, alongside 8.2.1 on about 10 XOs. It took a while to get started -- the booting issues that Caroline mentions are real, and many laptops are picky on what they boot.
Version: Soas2-200904161412.iso
Highlights:
- Sound works well! TamTamJam worked pretty well on the Dell Vostro
1500 tested.
- Pippy (behaved identically on both laptops tested) - Sound playing was mixed -- Sequence and and Playsine work.
Playwave and Getsoundslist are broken.
- Pong is broken, apparently due to sound. - 'Thanks' is broken -- I suspect that the code is building a
2-dimensional table that is smaller than what size() returns.
- XOs running 8.2.1 (alongside the SoaS test machines) were happily
running Salut (over a local AP) -- and the question of the day was: how can we get SoaS to switch to Salut?
- XOs running 8.2.1 and Chat.xo had a lot of situations where a given
machine would be in a chatroom but fail to see everyone else's messages. We developed a suspicion that it might be related to different language settings on the various machines, but we could not repro the problem. Is this known? There are no references to this on http://dev.laptop.org/query?status=assigned&status=new&status=reopened&component=chat-activity&order=priority&col=id&col=summary&col=status&col=type&col=priority&col=milestone&col=component
- SoaS on the XO booted, but I don't have any further notes on this
-- it was running off a USB stick with a compressed Squashfs partition -- not the best setup, and it was conversely slow. My plan is to get one or two XOs with a properly installed Soas image _and_ an XO kernel.
- There is no Record.xo ?
- Alex and Daniel were playing also with httpd-crcsync --
