[[Image:Alphaomega.jpg|thumb|200px|''"I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end."'' —Jesus (Rev. 22:13)]]
'''Jesus Christ''' is the only Son of [[God]] and prophesied [[Messiah]] who, at the appointed time, was sent by His [[God the Father|Father]] and became a man to be the payment for the penalty of sin that separated us from [[God]] and to reveal to us the loving nature of God through his human person (1 John 4:10; 2 Corinthians 5:19). Although He was sinless, he bore the penalty for sin upon Himself for us.

By the power of the [[Holy Spirit]], Jesus was conceived in the [[womb]] of the virgin [[Virgin Mary|Mary]], and became man in an event known as the [[Incarnation]], as referred to in Isaiah 7:14. Indeed, the calendar itself reflects this truth, with the traditional calculation of Jesus’ birth marking the first century A.D., that is, "''in the year of Our Lord…''." The [[John the Apostle|apostle John]] wrote in his gospel the following regarding Jesus Christ: "''For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life''" (John 3:16).

When he was about thirty, Jesus was baptized by [[John the Baptist]], inaugurating his ministry. Jesus of [[Nazareth]] is the Christ or Messiah, prophesied in the [[Old Testament]] (Greek: Χριστός; [[Aramaic]]: 'משיחא'). Jesus proclaimed that “[t]he time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent, and believe in the Gospel.”<ref>Mark 1:14-15.</ref> As signs of these truths, Jesus performed various miracles.


== Leave me a note... ==
However, not all who heard the Lord believed in him, and, because he “was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God”, some sought to put him to death.<ref>John 5:18.</ref> Jesus was handed over to the Roman governor [[Pontius Pilate]] and crucified. But it was through his redemptive death, as the [[Holy Scripture|scriptures]] had foretold, that Jesus reconciled mankind with God.<ref>Romans 5:10.</ref> And so, on the third day, in a truly historical event, Jesus physically rose from the dead, making possible salvation and eternal life for those who believe in him. Indeed, his very name, ''Yeshua'' (Hebrew 'יהושע') means "[[Salvation]]" and is the concatenated form of ''Yahoshua'', ‘[[YHWH]] is salvation’. After appearing to his disciples on various occasions, Jesus ascended to Heaven, where he acts as our mediator, assuring, by his constant intercession, the permanent outpouring of the Holy Spirit.

== Jesus' Life ==
=== (From joe) ===
Hi,
===The Pre-existance of Jesus before His incarnation===
Though it is commonly thought that Jesus had his beginning with His birth or with His conception in the womb of Mary, and that personality begins with birth and develops with age, the Person of Jesus on earth was one and the same Person as was the Son of God in the presence of the Father before the incarnation. That is why the transition of His becoming a man on earth is considered such a great act of humility and self forgetfulness - to have left it all, for us, for which He will always be honored and extolled.


Thanks for the info. The format that Charlie, et al are creating would supersede the format shown on the "Testing" page. This is still a "work in progress".
Though he was in the form of God , He did not cling to this equality with God, but empried himself to assume the condition of a slave, and became as men are, and being found as a man, he was even humbler yet, even to accepting death, even on a cross. But God raised him high, and gave him the name which is above all other names, so that all beings, in the heavens, and on the earth, and in the underworld, should bend the knee at the name of Jesus, and that every tongue should acclaim, Jesus Christ as Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Philippians 2:5-11


Regards,
===Incarnation of the Son of God===


Joe
The Son of God, who was always with the Father before all creation, took upon himself flesh, that is, become a human being, taking the flesh of manhood from his mother Mary but without her being impregnated by any man. He was born of Mary through the power of the Holy Spirit. The Gospel of John begins,<blockquote>"In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God... and the Word become flesh and dwelt among us"</blockquote>. There are two understandings of this. Though both hold that the Son of God, Divinity Himself, became a man, they understand differently the beginning of the Gospel of John.


=== From Tomhannen on emulation ===
The first understanding sees in the Son of God being the Word ("logos" in Greek) that He is the communication of the Father and thus in some sense the purpose of His coming was to mediate the knowledge of God to man among whom He would dwell and be one with them. But as mediator He is in no way inferior to the God He communicates because He Himself is God. The Trinity is emphasized though by implication (the word "Trinity" is of later usage to describe the phenomenon as presented by the New Testament). This understanding rests upon the use of "logos" in Philo and elsewhere meaning "reason", "word", "rationale"
Hi -

--[[User:Tomhannen|Tomhannen]] 09:22, 7 December 2006 (EST)
The second interpretation, while in no way negating His coming to be the communication of the Father to man necessitating the incarnation and explicating the Trinity, rather says that we need to look not to Philo and the "logos" philosophy but to the Aramaic Jewish thought of the time. Doing so, we can see that the Gospel of John intends to rip away a veil, and in doing so, will show us that it was God Himself and no mediator, that leaped down to take the form of a human being, and that this is to be spoken of boldly.


Here is how this second understanding is developed:


=== From Kiko on GStreamer ===
The Hebrew text is very clear in visualizing the God of Israel in physical terms, even if meant to be understood metaphorically. But the Aramaic Jewish translations of the Hebrew Scriptures will not allow it to be so presented, but will rather speak around it (paraphrase) or use an intermediary word between the physical description and God. In [[Genesis]] 32, [[Jacob]] is wrestling with "a man" but after the bout, Jacob says, in the original Hebrew text, "I have seen God face to face and my life has been saved". In the Aramaic translation, however, Jacob is made to say, " I have seen the ''angel of God'' face to face and my life has been saved". At times, the intermediary word is the word "Word" - in Aramaic, Memra (the root is Aleph, Mem, Resh as in the Hebrew word 'Omer). Whereas the Hebrew text (Gen. 3:8) has it, "They ([[Adam]] and [[Eve]]) heard the sound of the LORD God walking about in the garden", the Aramaic has it, "they heard the sound of ''the Memra'' of the LORD God walking about in the garden" Apparently, walking about in the garden conjured up too much of rustling of leaves and bushes to take figuratively, and so it was the "Memra" that was heard and not the LORD God. This is the pattern in other places in Genesis. Prof. David Flusser of the Hebrew University notes that it is to this mindset that we owe our understanding of John 1:1 and not to Philo and the Alexandrian "logos" philosophy. "In the beginning was the Word (Memra) and the Word (Memra) was with God.. and the Word (Memra) was God. John 1:1 is meant to rip away the distinction between God and the Memra, so assiduously held to by contemporary Judaism, and so declare that they, the Memra and God, are in reality one, ...and this One has, indeed, come down and has become flesh of our flesh and bone of our bone. John, in his epistle would later say in wonderment, " Whom we have handled, we have touched and held Him."

The [[Gospels]] tell us that Jesus was born in [[Bethlehem]] of [[Judea]] to a young virgin named [[Virgin Mary|Mary]], by the [[Holy Spirit]].<ref>http://objectiveministries.org/babyj/</ref> [[Gospel of Luke|Luke's account]] of the gospel relates that the angel [[Gabriel]] visited Mary in order to announce that she had been chosen to bear the Son of God (Luke 1:26–38). A survey of the [[Roman Empire]] was ordered by [[Augustus|Caesar Augustus]], which caused Mary and [[Joseph (father of Jesus)|Joseph]] to leave Nazareth and go to the home of Joseph's forebears - to the house of [[David|King David]]. After Jesus' birth, they were forced to use a [[manger]] for a crib because the town's inn was full. According to Luke 2:8–20, an [[angel]] spread word of Jesus' birth to several shepherds who came to visit the newborn. Matthew also tells of the "Magi" ([[Zoroastrianism|Zoroastrian]] priests) who brought many gifts to the infant Jesus (among which were [[gold]], [[frankincense]], and [[myrrh]])<ref>Note: This has led to the incorrect assumption that there were only three Magi, whereas the actual number is not given.</ref> after following a star which they believed was an indication that the [[Messiah]], or King of the Jews, had been born.

Jesus' early home was the town of [[Nazareth]] in [[Galilee]], and except for an escape to [[Egypt]] in early childhood to avoid [[Herod the Great|Herod's]] massacre of the other male infants, all other events in the Gospels take place in ancient Israel.

====The Infancy and the Massacre of the Innocents====
kiko att gmail dott com


--[[User:Kiko|Kiko from Perú]] 11 July 2009
Within sight of the southern suburbs of Modern Jerusalem,towards the eastern desert, is a conical hill, Herodium, made conical by the work of Herod the King. Herodium served as his fortress in the time of war and as royal residence for himself and visiting dignitaries in the time of peace. Mazada by the dead sea served him in the same way. From this bastion were sent by him his soldiers to slay all the children under the age of two of Bethlehem, in full view of Herodium looking south. This was in hopes that in the slaughter of all, he would also slay the child, indicated by the star and the Magi, as his rival to the throne and power. And so, escaping, Joseph and Mary took the child Jesus to Egypt until it was time, at the death of Herod, for him to make exodus back into the Holy Land and Nazareth. "Out of Egypt have I called My Son" The fury and the hatred for one child, thus saw the slaying of so many of the innocents of Bethlehem whose only guilt was that they were under 2. And so, we know now the Massacre of the Innocents


== Documentation notes ==
Beyond this slaughter of so many and hatred for the One who had come, the Book of the Revelation, Chapter 12 would see another and ancient hatred, whether understood or not, one that works behind all other slaying, behind the slaying of all infants, within and without the womb - hatred for the very Son of God, and hatred for all his seed that bear His image, hatred for the Image of God borne by the Son of God, and hatred for God Himself.

But His parents were unaware of it, but supposed Him to be in the caravan, and went a day’s journey; and they began looking for Him among their relatives and acquaintances. When they did not find Him, they returned to Jerusalem looking for Him. Then, after three days they found Him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them and asking them questions. And all who heard Him were amazed at His understanding and His answers. When they saw Him, they were astonished; and His mother said to Him, “Son, why have You treated us this way? Behold, Your father and I have been anxiously looking for You.” And He said to them, “Why is it that you were looking for Me? Did you not know that I had to be in My Father’s house?” But they did not understand the statement which He had made to them. And He went down with them and came to Nazareth, and He continued in subjection to them; and His mother treasured all these things in her heart.}}

At this early age of twelve years old, there is clearly shown an inner positional or relational commitment of Jesus. Nor is there any indication that this had not been present prior to His twelfth year. His deepest belonging, that against which all other belongings were to be judged, confirmed, rejected, etc. was to the Father, the Father's House, the Father's concerns. This commitment would reverberate at later times, severing ultimate claims on Him of his closest - mother, brothers, sisters, etc. In the presence of these and to their hearing, He would ask, "Who are my mother, and brothers, and sisters? He that does the will of my Father in Heaven is ..." This, in His own life, was the moral authority to demand the same of all others, "You cannot serve two masters..." The memory of what had happened in the Temple when He was twelve, pondering it in her heart, would stand Mary in good stead, when she would see her son hanging on the cross. She also would be found with the disciples in the upper room, praying, and waiting for the coming of the Spirit which He had promised.

What is the XO-1 font?
and around that the time, there was to evolve the extra biblical ceremony and practice of Judaism, which woud try to make sense of the need to be anchored into the ancient tradition of God, with the need to make new for every generation the relevance of it for each Jewish youth. And so developed the Bar Mitzvah, the "Son of the Law" ceremony and concept. At the age of 13, a Jewish boy, so it developed, would read or sing out in the synagogue, the Shabbat of his birthday, the prophetic portion (the Haftorah) for that Sabbath assigned to the Torah portion (from the 5 books of Moses, read consecutively), raining down upon him from the Women's Section (Ezrat Nashim) - the Help of Women) above or to the side, hard sweet candy signifying the hope of sweetness set before him. For at that time, the Jewish boy becomes a Jewish man, taking upon himself, the obligations for fulfilling the Law of Moses, and is no longer absolved from this responsibility by the mediation of his father's fullfilment of the Law of Moses for him.

So Jesus reasoned with the rabbis, never being encompassed by them, in the house of His Father. Was it told to us showing what He was and what we could be, or at least, learn to follow in His steps, or was it shown to us to allow us to view another step in His being made perfect, growing in favor with God and Man, totally consumed with the doing of His Father's will, and thus, "being made perfect", to take our place upon the Cross, for our sakes and for our salvation?

=== Ministry ===
==== Baptism ====
[[Image:Jesus' Baptism.jpg|thumb|right|150px|Jesus' Baptism]]
The [[gospel of Mark]] begins with the [[baptism]] of Jesus by [[John the Baptist]], which appears to be the beginning of Jesus' public ministry. Jesus came to the [[Jordan River|River Jordan]], where John was preaching and baptizing people in the crowd. After Jesus had been baptized, and had risen up out of the water, Mark states Jesus 'saw the heavens torn apart and the Holy Spirit descending like a dove on him. And a voice came from [[heaven]], 'You are my Son, the Beloved; with you I am well pleased' (Mark 1:10–11). Luke adds the chronological anchor that John the Baptist had begun preaching in the fifteenth year of [[Tiberius]] Caesar, approximately in 28 AD (Luke 3:1) and that Jesus was thirty years old when he was baptized (Luke 3:23).

'''The meaning of Baptism for Jesus:'''


=== Placeholder images ===
Jesus insisted over the protests of John that He be baptized at the hands of John. John's protests are natural enough as John's baptism was for those who were sinners, and implied in baptism was the understanding that the baptizer was somehow greater than the one baptized. John believed that he needed to be baptized by Jesus and not the other way around. But Jesus' understanding of His being baptized was two-fold:"Baptism" meant suffering unto death, and it implied that His impending mission was to be in behalf and in place of the real sinners, the humanity for whom He would die. Jesus would later use "baptism" in the first sense when he said to disciples, "Can you be baptized with the baptism which I will undergo?" The Spirit coming down on the Son in the form of a Dove (Yonah = "Jonah" in Hebrew), and the voice of the Father, "This is My Beloved Son" was the Divine empowerment, and authorization for Jesus' mission to come entailing His sacrificial death, three days, not in the belly of the fish, but in the bowels of the earth, and after that, resurrection. As Baptism for Jesus meant, looking forward, His joining sinful humanity to the point of bearing their sins to the death of the cross, so the later New Testament understands, looking backward, that sinners believing in Jesus are also to join Him in His death through the waters of baptism "in the Name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit" - according to the command of the Risen Christ. See [[Christianity]] for Jesus' self consciousness.

==== Temptation ====
or
After this baptism, according to Matthew, Jesus was brought into the desert by God where he fasted for forty days nights. During this period, the [[Satan]] appeared before him and tried three times to tempted Jesus into demonstrating his supernatural powers as a proof of his divine status; each temptation was refused by Jesus, with a scriptural quote from the Book of [[Deuteronomy]].

Jesus then began to preach. [[Gospel of John|John]] describes three different [[passover]] feasts that Jesus attended, thus implying that his ministry lasted three years.

'''The reason behind the Temptation:'''


== XO experiments ==
The Temptation occurred just as told in the Gospels. But behind the happening, another message lies revealing the identity of Jesus to a people who would understand it. At the foothill of Mt. Hermon, in between the servile Roman infatuated people of Tiberius to the south west of the Sea of Galilee, and the rabidly nationalistic, anti- Roman Zealots of Gamla to the north east, Jesus asked His disciples who He was. The Messiah, the Son of the Living God, was the answer. And Jesus explained who He was and why he had come in terms that fit their experience - not to rule and throw out the Romans, nor to uphold their ways and laws but rather something on a different plane all together - to give His life settling it on the cross.


=== Detecting if the user has Help installed ===
To a later believing people, those who were not Jewish, who He was would be understood in terms fitting to who they were - He had come the Second Adam, to give His life and to provide new life to those who were not Jewish, but also including the Jews, to all the lost and wandering children of Adam.

In the Temptation, it is the those who knew the Old Testament, the physical children of Abraham primarily, who could see in the long range, and not primarily dictated to by the political passions of the moment, and who could wonder who they were and where they had gone wrong, and wonder also who would be the One to take them out. It is they, Israel, who had been in the wilderness for 40 years, and they that had succumbed to the temptations of selling out for food and drink, though they were a "Son" whom God with a strong arm and outstretched hand had taken out of the bondage of Egypt, they had turned traitor, driven by their own lust and pride. And here now, in Jesus, was One who resisted the devil in the wilderness, also "for forty", preferring the will of God as His food rather than all the world could offer, Who was He? He was Israel! The only true one left, the faithful remnant spoken of by the prophet Isaiah, the servant true to the end. As the letter to the Hebrews saw, "Though He were a Son yet learned He obedience by the things He suffered, and being made perfect, He become the author of Eternal life...". This is the understanding of the Gospel of Matthew, in interpreting a passage from Hosea which was manifestly speaking of Israel the people and applying it to Jesus who also came out of Egypt with His parents at the death of Herod, " Out of Egypt have I called my Son". Who was Jesus? He was Israel who had ''not'' failed come to redeem Israel who had, and also out of all the peoples of the world.

==== Disciples and Apostles ====
[[Image:Jesus5.jpg‎|thumb|left|100px|Jesus Christ <small>(Artist's impression)</small>]]
The larger part of this was directed towards his closest followers, the [[apostles]], although all of his followers were considered [[disciples of Jesus|disciples]]. At the highest point of his ministry, Jesus attracted disciples and audiences numbering in the thousands; in particular in the area of Galilee. Many of Jesus' most well-known teachings were given during the [[Sermon on the Mount]], such as the [[Beatitudes]] and the [[Lord's Prayer]]. Jesus often used parables in his rhetorical technique, such as the [[Parable of the Good Samaritan]] and [[the parable of the sheep and the goats|the Parable of the Sheep and the Goats]]; these teachings encouraged unconditional self-sacrificing [[Shema|love for God]] and [[Agape|for all people]]. During these sermons, he also discussed service and humility, forgiveness of sins, how faith should be applied, the [[Golden Rule]], and the necessity of following the spirit of the law as well as its wording.


noHelp = true;
'''Their choosing and their purpose:''' Among the many who came to Jesus, from afar and from the surrounding villages of the north shore of the Sea of Galilee, were those moved by his insight into the nature of life, or touched deeply by His seemingly knowing them from the inside, by His intimacy with the God and Father they had only known "about", or impressed by the miracles done before their very eyes, and many, by His deep compassion for the people, so evident in all that He did. Jesus would sprinkle His words upon them as seed in a path, some to take root, and some to be blown away by the wind. But to those who heard and wanted more, they would get that more, receiving explanation, and move closer to His association. Those that would not, would receive only that which was commensurate to not wanting - more parables, silence. Never the revealing of the "Secrets of the Kingdom". Yet, there was no prohibition and no limit for getting closer to Jesus. Those that did, became His "learners" - the disciples, understanding the meanings of His word by the demonstration of His life and putting them into practice. Among these were another group, some that had been with Him from early on, possibly some from the time of His baptism at the hands of John. These He would hold in His mind for an additional and different reason.

The mission of the Apostles (see "Example 5." of [[New Testament understanding through the Jewish perspective]]) was to do all that they saw Jesus was doing, healing the sick, raising the dead, and with all this, to tell about the fast coming Kingdom of Heaven, the rule of His Father, and urge people to repent and get ready for it. He gave them His power and authority to do all this. But it was to be 12 in number, not more and not less, that number surviving even the suicide of one of them, Judas from the village of Kyriot, requiring an "election" to bring back the number from 11 to 12. And that was because the special additional reason for their appointment was to sit on the 12 thrones of the 12 tribes of Israel (the sons of Jacob) and lead them by whatever it takes - that is the meaning of the biblical term "Judge" (Shofet)*. For the community of the "little ones"., was to be, in some sense, an Israel within Israel, or a new Israel, a sort of beachhead for the onslaught of the Kingdom of God in its invasion (or sometimes, infiltration into) into and onto the Kingdom of the unjust occupier and enemy of all Goodness, the Devil, to overthrow him and all his works. This truer and newer Israel, He called His "Called Out ones" (Eklessia=Church) against whose onslaught the Fortified city of Hell with its defensive bars to its massive gates, would not prevail. Many captives would be released. The Church, then, was the community counterpart to what was known as the "Synagogue" (Greek), meaning "gathered together ones" (Beit Knesset - house of the gathering, Hebrew). It was the Synagogue of Jesus the King and Messiah, and aligned with and the focal point of the Prophetically promised and hoped-for Kingdom of God and the rule of Heaven on Earth. And the disciples and apostles of Jesus all had their place in the unfolding of it all.

I tried <tt>yum install mozplugger</tt>, it installed sox and gsm WHY??!, still no luck and maybe it messed up PDF download, I now get a Mozilla "rainbow-daemon" dialog not a nice Sugar dialog.
Jesus also often conversed with social outcasts, such as the publican ([[Rome|Roman]] tax collectors who were unpopular for their practice of extorting money).


Maybe I need to install evince as well, since <tt>/etc/mozpluggerrc</tt> wants to start this? XO has evince library, but <tt>yum install evince</tt> pulls in literally dozens of other libraries so I cancelled.
Jesus showed no partiality toward outcasts, and neither did He do so to those who were in society. But being an outcast was a category beyond the reach of all others which were in society. Jesus was not for the male over against the female, the Jew over against the non Jew, townsman over against the man of the field. He was impartial and penetrating in His love for all. But all of these had a certain standing in Society, they were part of it, though all being in it, could vie for more of it as their share. But all were united, and could work in concert against what they were not - the outcast. The love of Jesus and the love of His Father through Him, could not rest lightly on any one of them, until it would reach and rest on the one beyond the fringes, the outer edges, and down below - the outcast. This demonstrated in the life of Jesus what the Cross would later show and the Apostles preach - all were outcast to the Holiness of God, and all could be loved by Him and, indeed, were.


== Wiki experiments and such ==
==== Miracles ====
Throughout his ministry, Jesus performed many miracles including healing the sick and possessed, feeding 5000, and even raising from the dead.


=== Sugar: interwiki prefix broken ===
Miracles were an intrusion of the ordinary, but the ordinary of a different and far-superior Kingdom, into the sordid and sin sick kingdoms of this world. They showed what life was really like there in that Kingdom which was coming and how weak, unstable, subject and cringing were the powers of this corrupted world, "bent" under the heel of God. That a widow should have her dead son restored to her alive, that outcasts such as lepers should be restored to the community, and as a result of their being healed, that darkness should give way to light and sight, that a woman deserving stoning find solace and forgiveness, all of these are the way things are and ought to be in the Kingdom of God because of the way He is. They were, at one and the same time, signs of the Kingdom which was coming and great works of compassion done here below which will never by surpassed or forgotten. And Jesus the Messiah was bringing them in!
There's a sugar: interwiki prefix to make linking to pages on sugarlabs.org easier.
E.g. on the [[Setting up a sugar development environment]] page,
<tt><nowiki>[[sugar:Supported systems]]</nowiki></tt> turns into
[[sugar:Supported systems]]
which has the wrong prefix.


This should be fixable in an interwiki table somewhere on ??pedal.laptop.org.
Note: See Example 5 of [[New Testament understanding through the Jewish perspective]] for the assault and infiltration of God's Kingdom on and into the Kingdom of Satan.
[[Special:Version]] indicates that wiki.laptop.org runs [[mw:Extension:InterWiki]] , so this could be as simple as editing an ''InterWiki.txt'' file somewhere. I e-mailed wiki-gang and sysadmin "sugarlabs links breaking, need to update sugar: interwiki prefix" on 2008-11-13.


=== Activity versions for a particular release ===
==== His Preaching was Offensive to the Established Authority ====
Starting with [[8.2.0]], people have manually created then updated fragments and pages recording which version of an activity works with a release, such as [[Activities/G1G1/8.2]]. The [[Software updater]] [[Sugar Control Panel]] feature requires this.
As He preached, Jesus ran afoul of the [[Sanhedrin]], the recognized Jewish religious authorities, who were allowed to have considerable religious, political and monetary influence under Roman rule. Jesus chastised them, accusing them of making laws for the people to follow that were the laws of men, not God. The Sanhedrin tried to set traps for Jesus by asking Him questions to either discredit Him with the people or get Him in trouble with the Roman authorities, but all of their efforts failed and they gave up. They lacked the means to stop Jesus until [[Judas Iscariot]] came to them and offered to betray Jesus for 30 pieces of silver. He would tell them where Jesus would be that night so they could seize Him.


But there is no such page for earlier releases.
You can go look at the bottom of an activity's page (e.g. [[Chat]]) and it lists versions of the activity and what release they work on:
{|class=wikitable
| Activity version number:
|40
|-
| The releases with which this version of the activity has been tested.
| 8.1.1 (708)
|}


Unfortunately, the way User:Femslade designed Template:Activity_page/bundle , you can't run a query to "show the version and URL of all activities that were flagged as working on 8.1.0."
Notable among Jewish established authorities were the Pharasees, the Saduccees, and the Herodians.


Here's a query that just lists activities with ''some'' version flagged as working on 8.1.1. If there's more than one, then go read its page!
The Pharisees, believing that at the time God had given to Moses the "written Torah" (Torah shebikhtav), He had also given to Moses an "Oral Torah" (Torah shebe'al peh) which would apply the written Torah to all situations and times, and that that Oral Torah had been handed down from generation to generation, finally, it itself written down, making, in the days of Jesus, the beginning of the Talmud. Thus it was necessary to be able to "fill in the rabbis" from whom the teaching came (see [[Judaism]]) - "Rabbi Tarfon says in the name of Rabbi..." But this man Jesus, goes straight to Moses, and straight to Heaven! ''"You have heard it said...but I say unto you..."'' and himself speaks as the ''Mouth of God!''
{{#ask: [[Category:Activities]] [[Software release::8.1.1 (708)]]

Here's a similar query that just lists activities with ''some'' version flagged as working on 8.1.0. If there's more than one, then go read its page!
The Saduccees, not believing in an Oral Torah, and believing much of the written Torah to be irrelevant and impractical in the modern times that they lived, believed that the "blanks" and how the Torah was to be applied in these days, must be decided by the Kingdoms of the World, namely, Roman law and requirement. But this man Jesus speaks of another Kingdom and another King, and not of Rome!

=== Activity list ===
The Herodians saw clearly who their enemy was and who their Savior was and wherein their safety lie - Herod the King of the Jews and all the aura and the might that he possessed. And their enemy was anyone who would claim, or live in the claim of others, that it was he that was the King of the Jews and not Herod (and the royalty after Herod) - such as was doing the man Jesus of Nazareth
Here's a way to extract info from an Activity group HTML file, assuming it's ruthlessly consistent:
curl http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities/G1G1/8.2 > Activities_G1G1_8.2.html
perl -ne 'chomp; next if m/Image:/; print if s:^.*?Download.*?href="(.*?)/([^/].*?)".*activity-version.*?(\d+).*$:[$1/$2 download $2]\t$3\n:; print if s:^.*/go/(.*?)".*:$1\t:' < Activities_G1G1_8.2.html > Activities_G1G1_8.2.lst3
clean up...


Gives [[/G1G1 8.2 HTML contents]]
Note: Judaism does not have a "unified" theory of Inspiration or practical authority of Scripture. That is, The most authoritative, and capable of being regulatory to life as "law" is the five books of Moses. After that, the Prophets. And after that, the "Writings." The Scripture of the Saduccees was just the Five books of Moses, and since there is little if anything about the resurrection from the dead and the after life in the the Five Books of Moses, they believed in neither. The Pharisees, believing in the on-going of revelation extending, though with lesser authority, to the Prophets (such as Daniel) and the Writings, believed in both.

Eating before the Lord or with the Lord, would be used as the highest form of friendship - Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If any one hears My voice and opens the door I will come in to him and share my meal with him, side by side.". Rev. 3:20.
[[User:Sj]]'s form to create a page that uses preload and such to prefill a page. Seems to work. The time is tricky, I'm not sure timezones are supported.

At the [[Passover Seder]], the last meal the Lord would eat with His followers, His presence so permeated the atmosphere, and what He said and did at that special time, and especially they having received His command to do just what He was doing before them at this time, whenever they would meet together, the Apostles of the Lord and the Gospels after them could not speak of bountiful and miraculous times of the Lord's gracious giving of food feeding the multitudes, without mentioning that which otherwise would not have been mentioned - ''He took the bread, looked up to heaven blessing the bread, He broke the bread, and He gave it to them.'' That is what the Lord did before them, and that is what Hie commanded them to do after Him, and thus provided for them, and for the Church after them, the one of two universal services - the [[Lord's Supper]], or [[Eucharist]], or [[Holy Communion]].

=== XO Korea mystery ===
But in addition, He gave His own particular understanding to the unleavened bread of the Passover and ceremonial cup of wine, the 3rd and "Thanksgiving cup" of wine drunk immediately after the Passover meal was eaten. In slightly varying words, the Gospels and the Church after would perpetuate that understanding by repeating what the Lord Himself said at that Last Supper - "This is My Body which is given for you... This is My blood, the blood of the New Covenant which is shed for you, and for the many, for the forgiveness of sins. Do this as my own Remembrance". And so He signified to His followers that His life would be given in sacrifice for them and for their benefit. How this benefit would be effected, would be explained by Jesus by other sayings, "Do not think that I have come in order to be served. I have not come to be served but rather to serve, and to give my life as a ransom for many."
The gargantuan over-complex XO Korea structure from [[User:Php5]] means searching ''in English'' finds Korean pages, such as:
* [[XO_Korea/hobby_and_profession/business_area]]
* [[XO_Korea/business_content/45120000_Photographic_or_filming_or_video_equipment]]


But His presence remained with them at the continual celebration of this new Christian [[Passover]] of the Communion. Though He had vanished from their eyes as He would return to the Father, yet through the Spirit which He had promised to be in His stead, He was there with them to remain- "Where two or three are gathered together in My name, there am I!"..." Even so, Come Lord Jesus!"


How many pages in [[:Category:XO Korea]]?
Note 1: The word Maranatha, comes from the Greek word which is translating the Aramaic which comes in two forms according to the accent given. Marana tha - "O our Lord, come!", and Maran atha - "Our Lord has come". This appears in the earliest liturgies of the Eucharist, and was used either as an invocation for the Lord to come, a sort of invite, or as an exclamation that the Lord has indeed come, just as He said He would. In either case, it was a witness to the belief that the Lord was indeed with them when they participated in the Remembrance which He had commanded.


{{#ask:
Note 2; What the Lord said, "This is my body... This is my blood...Do this!" (the "Words of Institution", His instituting the Holy Communion until His coming again), is absent in the Gospel of John when recounting the last time of the Lord with His disciples. This is not an oversight, as the Gospel of John, from all contextual indications, has already spoken of the matter in the 6th chapter.

==== Garden of Gethsemane ====
[[Image:Jesus in Gethsemane.jpg|thumb|right|150px|Jesus in Gethsamane]]
Jesus knew that His time was short and that He was about to be betrayed into the hands of sinners. He had His last supper with his disciples and went with them to the [[Garden of Gethsemane]] and prayed vehemently knowing what was about to come.


=== Damn transclusion woes ===
Decision, certainty, from a distance is clearer and easier than when the time approaches for decision's implementation. That is because the here and now, leaves no room for imagining a rescue from all that is around us and in us. Leaving us confused or uncertain, needing assurance, or a once again revelation, of what it was that brought us to decision in the first place. John knowing from the beginning that his cousin Jesus was the promised Messiah, when years later, found himself in prison, and things not going the way he had expected, understood or hoped, required assurance that Jesus was really the One he had thought Him to be. Jesus responded forcefully and completely to that so human request - Tell John what you see, the dead are raised, the sick healed, and the poor are being told of the good news of the Kingdom of God. And it was enough.
A bunch of pages were transcluding [[Friends in testing/current image number]], like
[[Template:Joyride-jffs2-link]]. Francesca (?) put a semantic annotation in there, which added it to hundreds of pages.

I hid that in a noinclude, but for some reason that messed up pages.

Let's try it here with a local copy in [[User:Skierpage/current image number]], transcluded into this link:

== Testing my XO ==
Responding to the [[Friends in testing]] call and olpc-devel announcements... (My most recent tests come ''first'').

=== release 11.2.0 ([[Release notes/11.2.0|release notes]]) ===
I tried sudo olpc-update candicate-870 anyway, from 10.1.3.

(See message in response to "olpc-update works on XO-1!" thread for olpc-devel mailing list.)

<tt>sudo olpc-update -v candidate-872</tt> never succeeded, and now
<tt>sudo olpc-update -v candidate-872</tt> fails as well:

Before I start I ping updates.laptop.org and it works. Sometimes afterwards the ping fails. It finally succeeded, consensus from e-mail to Testing is it's network woes.

Tried again and it got lots of rsync timeouts and errors, but finally succeeded (?) with "Performing full rsync". I don't trust it.

==== Freeing up space ====
Update ran out of space.
That's not surprising, [http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/devel/2011-June/032352.html olpc-update works on XO-1!] says "it needs ~470MB of free space to work and os860 pristine [10.1.3] leaves only ~380MB free."

I erased Firefox and Help activities from the Home ring, but they left MB of data in ~/.sugar/default/org.laptop.FirefoxActivity and ~/.sugar/default/org.laptop.HelpActivity. (This is SL bug {{SugarLabs Ticket|2074}}, fixed in more recent Sugar.)

I had some content (aka [[Collections]]) in Library that didn't show up in the Journal (or Home view), like WorldDigitalLibrary and WikisliceChemistry. This seems mostly content shipped with the release, see [[Collections#Removing a collection]]. ''TODO BUG:'' Verify in 11.2.0 then file a bug that there's no UI to remove this.

==== Success, 11.2.0! ====
Third `sudo olpc-update -v -v candidate-os870` completed OK, I shutdown ('''BUG??''' no more Restart menu item in Home view?).

Held down check key.
Same q2e45 ROM as before.
Long pause on (roughly) "purging old ''something'', this may take a while".
X11 cursor, then Sugar spiral!

Old '''BUG:''' OLPC "Hello, children of the world!" message doesn't fit, longest line has " wereld!" running over.

A whopping 437MB free, presumably because the whole /versions/contents holding a previous version is gone, also hadn't run Software update yet.

How come Activities has Helpxoyuy1CT and writexofwuzad? (I noticed a file named similar to the former in 10.1.3.)

Where is Library content? My Libraries has only some .xols I installed, none of http://download.laptop.org/xo-1/os/candidate/870/os870.libraries.txt

The spiral home view got the Software update prompt, I let it run.

While Software update was up, I could tab to the Journal but couldn't type anything in its search box or do anything.

That said You can install 31 updates. ??!? That seems crazy, why is a recent build so out of date? I guess all the activities and library stuff doesn't come with the build but is triggered by Software update.

What happened to Alt-Ctrl-Neighborhood ([[Console]]), I couldn't bring this up, maybe also because Software Update on screen.

In Terminal, can't click both buttons to paste primary selection. As others noticed, Shift-Ctrl-C doesn't work, but in fact nothing works!

=== Soas2 20090312 ===

On a 2GB USB flash drive I let Live USB Creator create a 700MB area. But booting into Sugar Journal immediately popped up out of space.

I removed /usr/lib/perl5

I went to [[Collections]], downloaded the story book, and Sugar crashed with some kind of exception taking me back to the "liveuser" blue login.

But the book was in my Journal and I could start it.

==== Browse ====
No home page, would be nice if there was one by default showing the media.

On login fields like {{SERVERNAME}}, font size in text and passwords way too small.

Curved edges on Textarea unpleasant.

=== rawhide-xo ===

Retried 20090312 , worked. Glitches in e-mail to fedora on XO and in new [[Rawhide-XO]] page

Tried http://dev.laptop.org/~cjb/rawhide-xo/ 20090307

Used `cat /proc/partitions` to figure out my USB in cygwin is /dev/sdb

$ zcat 20090307.bootable.gz > /dev/sdb
gave
gzip: stdout: Input/Output error

Probably because stupid SanDisk "2 GB" USB is actually "2,043,633,664 bytes ('''1.90''' GB)". But since chkdsk reported no errors, tried it anyway.

Tried booting anyway, just stuck it in and restart.

=== candidate-800 ===

From build 767, sudo olpc-update candidate-800 worked fine

==== Usual set of errors on the console ====

Still got
some USB errors on the console during boot.

==== Wireless access point using WEP working OK? ====
Shortly after boot the Frame showed mesh icon only. Went to Neighborhood view and as I was hovering over my preferred AP, it started connecting to it.

On next boot, by the time I looked at the frame, I was connected to my preferred AP.

==== Screen stayed on, shutdown hang. ====
With Home View and Browse running, I closed the lid. I noticed it was warm. The screen had been on all the time! Weird.

I chose Home View XO > Shutdown, console screen showed
xinit: unexpected signal 15.

and I couldn't get it to actually power down by pressing keys. I held down the power button and it powered off.

=== clean-install of 650 back to the future ===
To see how olpc-update works from candidate-765, I ran [[Clean-install procedure]] to get os650.zip and fs.zip on a USB flash drive.

First Erasing, bunch of black squares,
then Writing, bunch of green then yellow dots.
A few red ones.

then a restart, then Ship.1 build 650 Christmas 2007 baby!

No sudo, had to [[su -l]]
but then
olpc-update candidate-765
more or less worked. irsync_pristine and irsync_dirty failed, but No out-of-memory.


During first boot,

Jesus, knowing why He had come, and that He was to mount the cross, to bear the sins of the world, knowing also what that must mean, He who had never "known" sin, now to know it in a way, that man could never know, man who all the time was in it, inured to it, accustomed to it, Jesus prayed. There was a movement in His prayer, taking on anew, the certainty and decision of old, feeling the enormity of it at close hand, and in the garden, he prayed three times, each time agonizing* dripping great drops of sweat, each time making movement in the direction from ''If there be another way, The Father knows and will show, but He would do whatever the Father wills'', towards ''being the Father's will, He would do it. There really is no other way''. And then it was done, He had settled it within Him anew, having prayed, and having received the deep silent Amen of the Father within His soul. It was enough. He was ready.

Software updates "Checking for updates" "Loading groups... took forever, part of progress bar blanked out. <trac>8681</trac> ?

I looked in journal, and there were two entries, "pi Seconds ago" and "oi 24 minutes ago", with a _-_- document logo. (I had just changed my timezone, maybe the time was off.)

=== Problems updating to 765 ===
Mail "Signed candidate-765 and gg-765-2 builds available for testing" went out. I renamed my developer.sig key and tried
sudo olpc-update 8.2-765
but that build isn't signed so update complained so I killed it.

So I tried
sudo olpc-update candidate-765
that completed, suspiciously quickly.

But now my XO won't boot
Q2E1`8 Q2E
Trying nand:\boot\runos.zip
OS found - No signature for our key
Boot failed :-(

If I press the [o] key to boot the alternate image (which is presumably my previous unsigned build), I get the same error.

==== Solved by putting developer key on USB flash drive ====
I solved this problem by copying my backup of <tt>develop.sig</tt> to <tt>/security/develop.sig</tt> on a USB flash drive. With the USB flash drive inserted, booting from unsigned nand code worked.

Then I re-ran
sudo olpc-update candidate-765
and it worked fine.

=== Damn U3 technology f***s up USB drives ===
If you buy a USB flash drive, it probably has crappy invasive U3 technology. Even if you have autorun turned off, Windows' "helpful" USB driver auto-install will automatically install some stupid driver that presents the flash drive as both a removable drive and a CD-ROM. '''WTF!??!'''

So download and run http://www.sandisk.com/Assets/u3/launchpadremoval.exe , then open Device Manager and make sure you don't have a second CD-ROM.

If from Journal I double-click on a Paint activity icon, I get two icons in the Frame, one of which has a doubled menu ("Paint Activity - Resume - Stop - Resume - Stop") that I can't resume or stop. When I tried to reproduce I got two icons, the first had the doubled menu, but this time the second icon pulsed forever.


You can't name a paint session in Paint (6220, I added this to release notes).

I can copy Paint's marquee selection and it appears in the frame, but the selection seems inactive -- it's gray, has no hover menu, I can't drag it.

I couldn't get paste of a selection to work.

The Paint fill is so slow that I assumed the app had died.

The Tools menu looks like a tools palette but you it doesn't show the selected tool. Actually, there is one item that looks like a selected tool, but it's the rounded-rect around the current color.

The color selection swatches would be a lot more obvious if they started out as the kid's XO colors instead of black and black.

Meanwhile the T in the text menu does have a gray background as if it's selected, but it isn't until you click it. And the two effects icons have a white background as if they're active.

If you type a pencil or brush size in their drop-down menus you can't dismiss the menu from the keyboard.

The Pencil size seems unchanged after changing its size.

Polygon tool cursor doesn't look like the polygon tool icon.

The Shapes menu doesn't fit the available space, "Triangle" is in a more items drop-down. I would get rid of the "Line" shape so the Shapes menu can fit on the regular screen.

The menu is "Text", its menu item is "Type". What's the difference?

The image resize spinboxes are so slow if I paste a previous Paint image in, I assumed the app had died. If I type in the image resize text boxes nothing happens but I don't know if it's really slow or they're dead to text input. Ideally they'd immediately show the value you type in or spin to but then you'd get a busy cursor.

I can choose anything from the Journal for Image insert, e.g. a terminal session, but nothing happens if it isn't a previous Paint session. Is Paint meant to insert the preview image of non-Paint sessions?

After unsuccessfully changing the size of an inserted image, the pencil tool works but the paint tool gets stuck as a selection marquee tool (makes no sense, but it's happened three times to me).

The two Effects operations are next to each other and have similar icons but do completely different things. It would be better to separate them, and change the hover text for the first to "Make picture gray"

=== Notes on Software update of activities ===
Running 8.2-759, Software update offers me
* Distance 12 to 13,
* Firefox 4 to 6
* Measure 17 to 19
* Paint 20 to 22
* Pippy 25 to 26
Modify activity groups is empty. Is it still going to [[Activities/Joyride]] ?
That page has CC Licensing Activity and Scratch, yet Software update doesn't offer them.

I ran update and screen went blank and machine restarted. After restart, got new list of offered activities.

Looking at an activity like [[Cobble]], it has two repeating forms each with:
* URL for the .xo bundle:
* Version number:
* Releases tested on: 7.1.0 (650) 7.1.1 (653) 7.1.2 (656) 8.1.0 (703) 8.1.1 (708) Candidate
* Development status:

That's bad, because this info is tied to the page, it isn't associated with each other. Same issue as multiple test results.

Can we have many-valued property Works_on: "version (build)", thus "26 (Candidate)", "24 (8.1.0)" But need URL in there as well...
So I guess we need subpages with version support for each stream.

=== Notes on Update from 8.2-759 to 8.2-760 ===
sudo olpc-update 8.2-760
in [[Terminal Activity]] worked great! irsync pristine worked, verification worked.

After restart I got messages about writing NAND. It seemed that the reboot didn't tell me it was installing new firmware version Q2E17.

2nd restart displayed Q2E17, then booted into Sugar.

Got prompt to run Software update, but that reported "Could not access the network". I often get this problem.

'''bug?:''' With Software update panel up, I can't get to frame with mouse, but pressing the upper-right Frame key will show the frame, though it seems inactive.


The Frame showed an AP so I retried and it worked fine.
*note: "Agonize" of the text is from the Greek word "to struggle".


==== Tried before Jewish Authorities ====
Jesus was betrayed by Judas into the hands of the Jewish religious authorities who took Him away and secretly put Him on trial during the night, trying to find justification for their desire to have Him killed. Finally, they convicted Him of blasphemy. For the location of the Jewish trial, see Example 6 of [[New Testament understanding through the Jewish perspective]]


=== Display pulses after standby (Out-of-memory?) ===
==== Tried before Roman Authorities ====
Twice with 8.2-759 my XO had trouble displaying screen after being in "standby", the screen flashed on every 30 seconds. See [[User:Skierpage/out-of-memory]] for notes.
As they did not have the authority to put a man to death, they took him to [[Pontius Pilate]], the Roman governor of Palestine, with their charges and demanded his execution. Pilate avoided the issue by sending him to [[Herod Antipas|King Herod]] since Jesus was a Galilean, but Herod sent him back to Pilate. Pilate at first tried to release Jesus with a flogging, and then gave the crowd a choice to either spare Jesus or a criminal called [[Barabbas]] as part of the passover tradition. The crowd chose to free Barabbas [Aramaic: "Son of a (the) Father") and Pilate washed his hands to signify that he bore no responsibility for Jesus' death before ultimately condemning Him to [[crucifixion]].<ref>Matthew 27: 15-44</ref>


I sent e-mail ''XO screen pulses after "standby", OOM afterwards'' to devel@laptop.org and filed <trac>8490</trac>
==== Scourging ====
The penalty of crucifixion was always preceded by scourging (flogging) with the Roman ''flagellum''. a short ox-hide whip knotted with pieces of zinc, lead, and bone which removed swaths of the victims' skin with every stroke. Although the Bible mentions the scourging of Jesus only very briefly, it must have been particularly brutal from the relatively short amount of time Jesus lingered on the cross after the punishment. Victims who suffered less blood loss from the scourging were known to remain alive on the cross for two or three days.


People think its CPU pressure not OOM. Alas, there's no guide of helpful stuff to type in low memory.
==== Death on a Cross ====
[[Image:David Christ on the Cross.jpg|right|thumb|Christ on the Cross by [[Jacques Louis David]].]]
Jesus died after suffering and giving up his spirit.


=== Notes on Update from 8.2-757 to 8.2-759 ===
Behind the Cross was the sum total of all the maladies of mankind, that the Old Testament unveiled : Pesh'a - conscious and "high handed" rebellion, for which , under the Old Covenant, there was no forgiveness provided, Khet - an unintended "missing of the mark", as in the deviation from the bull's eye of the bowman, Shigi'a - the mistakes, some causing great harm to others, which come about by plain ignorance, and 'Avon "iniquity" or distortion - the inner twistedness, that causes failure and suffering, seemingly from the very structure of our persons regardless of our intent. These were the sins Godwards as well as towards man, and these are all, Scripture revealed, repugnant to the nature and standard of a Holy God.
<tt>sudo olpc-update 8.2-759</tt> gave me the same <tt> Contents manifest failure at line 383 Last file examined: localtime</tt> error (<trac>8190</trac>.
and the same (?) out of memory error <trac>5954</trac>).


Supposedly these are fixed in build 8.2-758, so I shouldn't experience them any more.
On the Cross, in a way which is unfathomable to man, but nonetheless believable, the repugnance fell upon Jesus, the Son of God, and again in a way not fully understandable to us, but believable nonetheless, God was in Christ reconciling the world unto Himself, not considering us the sinners but rather His own dear Son who had no taint upon Himself. A great transaction had taken place by the imposition of Himself of Christ in our place, absorbing, as if He were a blotter, all the reaction of a Holy God upon Himself, in our place, that we might go free. Unfair to Him, Mercy to us. Yet Jesus was not forced to do it. He did it both in His great love for us and in His obedience to the way that the Father had decided. "No one takes my life from me. I have power to take it and I have power to lay it down...I lay down my life for the sheep". Peter would say, "The Just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God." Paul would say, "He was made to be sin, He who did not "know" sin, that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him". That was Friday.


Home View > XO Man > Restart left me at
On Saturday, when all were at Sabbath's rest, Jesus was not. His body dead, He passed in spirit to those that had died before, those in the period of Noah, and proclaimed, as Peter taught, what He had done. On Sunday, the first day of the week, He would rise from the dead.

I think this is known. By clicking power off and back on (i.e. not forcing a power off) it advanced to
The Cross of Christ, and the atonement He accomplished on it, is the very grounds that anyone who will be saved can be saved. The shedding of His blood brings salvation, to anyone who will respond, according to the ability that they have, that is given them. That brings forgiveness and acceptance, even welcome, to the murderer such as Paul, the adulteress such as the "woman taken in adultery", the tax-collecting extortionist, a seeker in the night turned believer, as hopefully Nicodemus proved to be, people that just know that they are sinners without any "grave sin" to specify, and also the "fetus" whose life was cut off in the womb as a "thing", and the severely retarded child banging his head in the institution he finds himself. All, according to the light given them, and repentance and turning to God given to them, will one day know just what was the basis for their salvation - the Cross of Christ. Those who reject, will also one day know the basis by which they could have been saved if they had not rejected - the Cross of Christ

=== Notes on Update from joyride-2301 to 8.2-757===
Jesus' resurrection from the dead was no mere reassembling the molecules of His dead and disintegrating body, but it was a new union of His Spirit and body, in a way that could only be called by the Apostle Paul, in reference to ourselves, when we, in turn, following His pattern, a ''spiritual body''. Having risen from the dead, He was physical enough to eat and drink with His disciples, and we can assume to digest, as well as ingest, and to be touched and felt, having Thomas' hand thrust into His spear riven side, and yet, strangely not held by the physical laws of before, passing through the door to the room where the disciples were assembled, "Peace be upon you!", and to physically ascend, in the sight of all, from a location on the Mount of Olives into the presence of the Father In some way, even the disciples on the Road to Emmaeus, could not recognize Him, perhaps an aspect of the changed body, perhaps the power of the will of Jesus himself blinding them to the fact that It was He, until the breaking of the bread.
I got the same <tt> Contents manifest failure at line 383 Last file examined: localtime</tt> error, so filed <trac>8190</trac>.
Jesus had risen, the stone unrolled, not to let Him out, but to let others in - to have the basis for their testimony, that He is risen indeed!
I got the same (?) out of memory error <trac>5954</trac>
By the regaining of His life in the resurrection from the dead (Scripture asserts that it was by the power of the Holy Spirit that this took place) Jesus was "certified" to the Church, and to all that would come after, that He was indeed the Son of God, that the verdict of death to Him given by men, was not so much overturned, but used in a far superior way by the Father to accomplish His will for redemption, and has given Him, at the last, ''vindication''.


Got a few hangs and instabilities.
And for mankind, its individuals in the millions through the centuries who had believed in Him, there came the certainty, that death was also not to be their end, that they too will arise with Jesus, that death, the annihilation of all, or a future only to be dreaded, was not to be their end, that the Presence of Jesus who had gone before them, was a welcoming one, that He had found a way, and now they would be with Him forever and ever, and with good hope for the sight of loved ones again. Death had been conquered and fear could be too.

=== Ascension into Heaven ===
He was lifted up while they looked on, and a cloud took him form their sight. They were still staring into the sky when suddenly two men in white were standing near them and they said, "why are you men from Galilee standing here looking into the sky. Jesus who has been taken up from you into heaven, this same Jesus will come back in the same way as you have seen Him go there." Acts 1:9-11


So I did it in a [[Console]], and joyride-2273 installed fine. Some errorsl
Scripture posits two purposes related to man for the ascension of Jesus: 1. it was to the right hand of the Father (showing favorable disposition of the Father to the Son to hear His requests) from which position Jesus intercedes to the Father on our behalf, and 2. Having ascended to the Father, He received from the Father the Spirit. The Father pours out the Spirit "through the Son" upon the Church. The "first Pentecost"

I gazed into the visions of the night and I saw coming on the clouds of heaven, One like a son of man. He came to the One of Great Age and was led into His presence. On Him was conferred sovereignty, glory and kingship. And men of all peoples, nations, and languages became His servants. His sovereignty is an eternal sovereignty which shall never pass away. Nor will His empire ever be destroyed. Daniel 7:13-14

==Jesus' Self Consciousness==


I did Ctrl+Alt+Erase to restart X and Sugar.
Jesus, conceived of the Holy Spirit, presented a disturbing surprise to his earthly father, Joseph, knowing he had not impregnated his fiancee, Mary. She would ponder the meaning of this miracle all the days Jesus would grow and finally she would behold her son expire on the cross. But Joseph, told by the Lord who his son really was, and how he had come about, and being warned by the Lord to flee the murderous Herod, took his family to Egypt - until the death of Herod made it safe ("Out of Egypt have I called My Son") to return to Israel. The family settled in Nazareth on the elevated rim of the Jezre'el Valley where he grew well and observably no different from the other youth. But when he was about 12 years old, he was taken to the Temple in Jerusalem, and displayed his consciousness that His real Father was God rather than Joseph ("Didn't you know that I must be here about the matters of My Father?".

They returned to Nazereth in Galilee and it wasn't until 28 years later that He began to publicly show His consciousness as to who he was. This was at his baptism at the Jordan River by John, when the voice came, to him, to John, and to the people privileged to be around, "This is my Son, the Beloved, Listen (Shma'a) to Him!" Here and now, against even the desire of John the Baptizer, Jesus, knowing that sin was not in him, chose to identify with sinful mankind in this baptism of John for repentance of sin, knowing that at the end of his time on earth, he would then be giving this sinless life of his on the cross, bearing the sins of the world upon himself.

Back, now, in Galilee, he would begin to do works of mercy, miracles of compassion, healings of deliverance, and overthrowing the devastations of Satan upon the people of God's compassion - in short, bringing in the Kingdom of Heaven and of God and supplanting the Kingdom of Darkness. He began to gather around him his followers, simple fishing folk and others, spending most of his time in the area around the north shore of the Kinneret (Sea of Galilee). among the Jews of this Jewish area. He was bringing in the Messianic Kingdom to those who would understand it best, the Jews. But all the time, there was burning within him the knowledge that the blessings of Abraham would be extended, according to the promise, to all the peoples of the earth, the Gentiles, and there would be a new Kingdom, a new nation, transcending both Jews and Gentiles, the Kingdom of the people of God the Heavenly Father. He began his forays then into gentile areas, Phoenecia, the Decapolis, and other locales, and finding faith there such as he had not found "even in Israel".


Read of a 4-page DjVu file shows 1/4, lets me advance, but doesn't show anything. When I page backwards it gets slow, then really slow, then cursor won't track and the machine is completely unresponsive. Had to power cycle. Nothing obvious in the error logs.
A crossroads occurred, then, in the choice of Jesus, and consequently in the options of his disciples. It occurred in the Tetrarchy of Philip, at the foothills of Mt. Hermon, at the town of Caesarea Philipi. He knowing who he was, would force the question upon others - "Who do people say Me to be?". From the lips of Shim'on, whom he would call Peter, as leader of the others, He would hear - "You are the Messiah, the Son of the Living God!" It was enough. Jesus would then begin imparting to them what the nature of His mission to be - not to expel the Romans from the Holy Land, but to go to Jerusalem, to be betrayed, to be spurned and rejected by the High Priests and the Elders of the People, to be hung on a Roman cross at the hands of the Gentiles, to die. Casesarea Philipi was in between, on one hand, Gentile pervaded Roman Tiberius to the southwest of the Sea, and on the other hand, anti-Roman nationalistic and zealotic Gamla to the north east of the Sea. (This latter would end their rebellion against Rome by suicide on Matzada in 73 A.D). Those two polarities were present in the minds of the disciples and Jesus began, on one hand, to divest from their minds the one, the warrior role of the Messiah against the Romans, and the other, to renew their thinking and their commitment to Him as the self sacrificing Lamb of God, the Prince of Peace and the true Messiah of Israel, on the other hand.


But then I tried again on another DjVu file from http://djvu.org/docs/, http://djvu.org/docs/1998_zcoder.djvu. All blank, showed 1 of 10. Then I zoomed out and saw the text of page 1!! But when I zoomed in, Read died, and Browse too!. Nothing in error log. I updated <trac>6223</trac>.
This took place on the long 3 or 4 day journey by foot from Galilee to Jerusalem, along the [[Jordan River]] valley, coming to Jericho, ascending to Jerusalem from the east. It was in Jerusalem that he prepared and settled the matter for the perpetuation of the Church at the Lord's last supper of the Passover, to be made palpable later by the descent of the Holy Spirit. It was in Jerusalem, in the Garden of the Oil Press, that what He had been lead to believe about his mission and the meaning and manner of his death was fully embraced and accepted with no reservation or turning back. "Your will be done, Father, if there is no other way", and "There is no other way, Your will be done Father!" It was a perfect decision and commitment, perfecting his life to be a perfect sacrifice. And it was to the west just outside Jerusalem that His teachings came to a concretization and realization on the cross. And just outside of Jerusalem that His Father would vindicate him by raising him from the dead.

==Following Jesus, believing in Him==
OLPC build update.1 708 (stream udpate.1; variant devel_jffs2)
It is sometimes said that there are two faiths in the New Testament. That of Jesus and that of Paul. Paul's religion is that of believing in Christ as Lord and Savior, and as the divine Son of God, and that of Jesus is of following Him in the sense of living and doing as He has taught. But in reality, there is only one faith and the two not in contradiction. For the Jesus of the Gospels, besides setting forth the life that He himself lived, as a pattern for all His followers, also said, "No one knows the Son, except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son choses to reveal Him", and "I and the Father are One", and "If you see Me, you see God". .And Paul, aside, from saying that "if you believe in the Lord Jesus you shall be saved", and "therefore, being justified by Faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ", also said "work out your salvation with fear and trembling", and "Owe no man anything except to love one another, for he who loves another has fulfilled the law."

Bug: last line seems bogus!?
Mark 16:16 "He who believes and is baptized shall be saved. And he who does not believe, shall be condemned", Jesus said. It is belief in Jesus which brings a person to the waters of baptism, and it is through the waters of baptism, that one enters into the fellowship of the Church, the people of God who are being brought, day be day, one with the other, to the life that Jesus taught about. And so his new belief and his being and living and doing are all unified under the direction of Christ and His under-shephards. And if one will not believe, of course, then it goes without saying, he will not be baptized.

Modern historians generally place the actual date of Jesus' birth between 7 and 4 B.C., due to problems reconciling the Roman and Jewish calendars with the [[Gregorian Calendar]] which is in use today throughout the industrialized world.

OK, so much for trying [[8.1.2]]!
=== Historicity of Jesus ===
Occasionally, non-historians deny the [[historicity of Jesus]] (Having to do with the question of whether Jesus was in fact a real person who had a real life on earth), but few scholars take this seriously. [[Tacitus]], a Roman historian, wrote about Jesus in A.D. 115,<ref>http://www.digisys.net/users/ddalton/evidence_of_jesus_outside_the_bible.htm</ref> and [[Josephus]], a Jewish historian who did not believe in Jesus' divinity, wrote about him.<ref>http://www.christian-thinktank.com/jesusref.html</ref> Dr. [[Gary Habermas]] wrote an extensive analysis of the historicity of Jesus in his work ''The Historical Jesus: Ancient Evidence for the Life of Christ'', which discusses many historical sources that mention Jesus.


Per [[Friends in Testing]],
[[Lee Strobel]]'s book ''[[The Case for Christ]]'' contains a number of interviews with experts on the historical Jesus and a defense of Jesus's resurrection, and is a good resource on this subject.

The bible doesn't tell us much about the meaning of the name ''Jesus'', but does tell us who gave the name, when the name was given, and a reason the name was given. Luke 2:21 tells us that his name was given (1) "by the angel," (2) and it was given "before He was conceived in the womb." The reason for naming him Jesus seems to be given in Matthew 1:21, which says, "...you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins."

=== ''Christ'' ===
Athough it appears that "Jesus Christ" is composed of a first and last name, and indeed, the New Testament at times considers the names together as a first and second name, in origin, and through much of the New Testament, "Christ" is used as a title. It is the Greek translation for "Mashiach" (Hebrew), and Meshicha (Aramaic) - meaning "Annointed". Thus He was called, "Jesus, the Annointed One". Kings priests, and prophets were often annointed with oil to consecrate them for their task, and so was Jesus for His task by the descent of the Spirit when He was baptized by John. The Spirit descended on Him and dwelt within Him. This was in fulfillment of Isaiah 61 - "The Spirit of the LORD is upon me for He has annointed (Mashach) Me; He has sent Me to bring good news to the meek, to console the broken hearted, to call out Freedom to the captives, and to prisoners Release." When Jesus ascended into the presence of the Father, the Father sent the Spirit of Jesus, the Holy Spirit, through the Son, upon the believers and they too, as their Master, were "annointed" for their living and their task.


Note: The change from a title to a name is much more authentic and understandable in Aramaic language than in English. There is no inner connection from "Jesus the Christ" to "Jesus Christ" in English but in Aramaic the connecting bridge is the vocative "O Christ" (O, Annointed One)! "O Christ" and "The Christ" is the same in Aramaic - Meshicha.


== Teachings of Jesus ==
==== Reboot ====
Jesus' special method of teaching was very different from what we know as "class room" teaching, and different from "teaching from definition". Though His students sometimes sat around Him and listened, He often taught them through the actual every day events of life, by parable and much more - as they traveled, as they ate, as they met people. All of life was His text book. He took them from what they understood to what they ''were to understand'', and brought them to understanding of what He meant, by how they saw it enacted and displayed in His own life. His life was the commentary to what they heard from His lips. That is why, besides that He was the Savior of the World, the believers in Him need be followers as well - to learn of His ways by intimate association. They would remember the words of the Savior later on and understand even more once His Spirit would be given them. His Spirit would then be their Guide, just as Jesus had done for them when He was on earth.

I'm a fan but just a casual G1G1 user and occasionally run images on Windows.

You can e-mail me as "info" at my web site, skierpage.com.

Leave me a note...

Here or on my "talk" page (click the [discussion] tab, click [+]). Remember, sign your edits with -- ~~~~.

(From joe)

Hi,

Thanks for the info. The format that Charlie, et al are creating would supersede the format shown on the "Testing" page. This is still a "work in progress".

Regards,

Joe

From Tomhannen on emulation

Hi - this should help.

From Kiko on GStreamer

Hi, i see you´ve made plenty things with video streaming... I´d like to port autocast to the xo. <-- the first video you see was our first prototype test,, do you get the idea,, we were switching video from many cameras by recognizing audio from each speaker,, now i would really like to get video streams from the XO cut "on the fly" and streamed to the web (to be recorded by service similar to youtubes quickcapture or re streaming with G.I.S.S. tv...

Is there a way that we can skype for a sec, that you can give me advice on how to find a way???

it would be so great... : ) kiko att gmail dott com

Documentation notes

The OLPC colors (1 Laptop -> XO) are (according to the wiki logo):

  • orange #f78f1e
  • green #6bbe45
  • blue #0093d0
  • reddish pink #e20177

XO-1 screen is 1200 wide x 900 tall.

Two toolbars are 149 (150?) pixels high.

What is the XO-1 font? 

 fc-match 'sans serif'

suggests ? Deja Vu Sans. Hmm, what font to use for callouts?

Annotate screenshot in Inkscape?

click connector, drag onto screenshot, use connector end arrow, use Extensions > Modify ending colorXXX

? how to assign styles that color arrow and text?

Laptop screenshot key is Alt+1

Placeholder images

To put a placeholder image in your wiki markup:

text text ActivityName screenshot blah blah blah

or

text text ActivityName's toolbar Activity name's toolbar contains blah blah blah.

mw:Help:Images describes all the possible image parameters

This approach is mentioned in Help Activity refresh#Images

XO experiments

Detecting if the user has Help installed

Help (activity) is just a shell around webactivity that starts at a local URL. But you can browse to file:///home/olpc/Activities/Help.activity/help/XO_Introduction.html in Browse. Here is HTML code to test if Help has been installed and ifso add a URL to it. I have no idea if this is any good, Google spat it out. Instead, the Library generation code in OLPC could modify the start page.

This code is at http://www.skierpage.com/olpc/show_help.html , but it won't work until you save it locally and open the local URL. 

<html>
<head>
<title>Try reading help file</title>
</head>
<body>
<h2>OLPC is awesome!</h2>
<script>
// This script only works when run from a local file:/// URL.
var oRequest = new XMLHttpRequest();
var helpStartURL  = "file:///home/olpc/Activities/Help.activity/help/XO_Introduction.html";

document.write("<p>DEBUG: Attempting to read " + helpStartURL + "</p>\n");

noHelp = true;

try {
  oRequest.open("GET",helpStartURL,false);
  oRequest.setRequestHeader("User-Agent",navigator.userAgent);
  oRequest.send(null)
  if (oRequest.status==200 || oRequest.status==0) {
    document.write('<h3>Need help?</h3><p><a href="' + helpStartURL + '>Go read the help text</a></p>');
    noHelp = false;
  } else {
    alert("DEBUG: Error executing XMLHttpRequest call!, status is " + oRequest.status);
  }
} catch (e) {

  alert("DEBUG: An exception occurred in the script. Error name: " + e.name 
    + ". Error message: " + e.message); 
}
if (noHelp) {
  document.write('No local help, but <a href="http://www.laptop.org/manual">Help is available online</a>.');
}
</script>
<p>and the rest of the page...</p>
<body>
</html>

Why the hell doesn't Rawhide-XO know I have an olpc keyboard?

PDFs in Browse

Trying to view PDFs in the browser without the horrible download-journal-start Read dance. evince isn't going to make a plugin [1], they recommend mozplugger. I tried yum install mozplugger, it installed sox and gsm WHY??!, still no luck and maybe it messed up PDF download, I now get a Mozilla "rainbow-daemon" dialog not a nice Sugar dialog.

Maybe I need to install evince as well, since /etc/mozpluggerrc wants to start this? XO has evince library, but yum install evince pulls in literally dozens of other libraries so I cancelled.

Wiki experiments and such

Sugar: interwiki prefix broken

There's a sugar: interwiki prefix to make linking to pages on sugarlabs.org easier. E.g. on the Setting up a sugar development environment page, [[sugar:Supported systems]] turns into sugar:Supported systems which has the wrong prefix.

This should be fixable in an interwiki table somewhere on ??pedal.laptop.org. Special:Version indicates that wiki.laptop.org runs mw:Extension:InterWiki , so this could be as simple as editing an InterWiki.txt file somewhere. I e-mailed wiki-gang and sysadmin "sugarlabs links breaking, need to update sugar: interwiki prefix" on 2008-11-13.

Activity versions for a particular release

Starting with 8.2.0, people have manually created then updated fragments and pages recording which version of an activity works with a release, such as Activities/G1G1/8.2. The Software updater Sugar Control Panel feature requires this.

But there is no such page for earlier releases. You can go look at the bottom of an activity's page (e.g. Chat) and it lists versions of the activity and what release they work on:

Activity version number: 40
The releases with which this version of the activity has been tested. 8.1.1 (708)

Unfortunately, the way User:Femslade designed Template:Activity_page/bundle , you can't run a query to "show the version and URL of all activities that were flagged as working on 8.1.0."

Here's a query that just lists activities with some version flagged as working on 8.1.1. If there's more than one, then go read its page! {{#ask: Software release::8.1.1 (708) 

 |? Activity version=One of these versions works with 8.1.1 (708)
 |default=Nothing in Category:Activities with Property:Software release of "8.1.1 (708)"!?

}}

Here's a similar query that just lists activities with some version flagged as working on 8.1.0. If there's more than one, then go read its page! {{#ask: Software release::8.1.0 (703) 

 |? Activity version=One of these versions works with 8.1.0 (703)
 |default=Nothing in Category:Activities with Property:Software release of "8.1.1 (708)"!?

}}

Activity list

Here's a way to extract info from an Activity group HTML file, assuming it's ruthlessly consistent: 

 curl http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities/G1G1/8.2 > Activities_G1G1_8.2.html
 perl -ne 'chomp; next if m/Image:/; print if s:^.*?Download.*?href="(.*?)/([^/].*?)".*activity-version.*?(\d+).*$:[$1/$2 download $2]\t$3\n:; print if s:^.*/go/(.*?)".*:$1\t:' < Activities_G1G1_8.2.html > Activities_G1G1_8.2.lst3

clean up...

Gives /G1G1 8.2 HTML contents 


for url in $(wget -q -O- http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities/G1G1/8.2%7Csed "s/>/>\n/g"|grep -v "^$"|grep "\.xo"|cut -d\" -f2); do
       prog_ver=$(basename $url|cut -d\. -f1)
       ver=$(echo $prog_ver|rev|cut -d- -f1|rev)
       prog=$(echo $prog_ver|rev|cut -d- -f2-|rev)
       echo $prog $ver $url;
done > Activities.lst3
User:Kevix

Create a meeting

User:Mchua wants want to create new pages containing 

 [[Category:Test group meetings]]

Try User:Sj's form to create a page that uses preload and such to prefill a page. Seems to work. The time is tricky, I'm not sure timezones are supported.

XO Korea mystery

The gargantuan over-complex XO Korea structure from User:Php5 means searching in English finds Korean pages, such as:


How many pages in Category:XO Korea?

{{#ask: 

 |format=count

}}

I sort of love php5's overcomplex microcosm, though :) and these days it's down to 10% of the whole... it reminds me of the bulk import of chinese characters and their meanings into an en-language dictionary, which overwhelmed /that/ random-page feature for a couple of years. --Sj talk

Damn transclusion woes

A bunch of pages were transcluding Friends in testing/current image number, like Template:Joyride-jffs2-link. Francesca (?) put a semantic annotation in there, which added it to hundreds of pages.

I hid that in a noinclude, but for some reason that messed up pages.

Let's try it here with a local copy in User:Skierpage/current image number, transcluded into this link:

joyride-2263

Testing my XO

Responding to the Friends in testing call and olpc-devel announcements... (My most recent tests come first).

release 11.2.0 (release notes)

I tried sudo olpc-update candicate-870 anyway, from 10.1.3.

(See message in response to "olpc-update works on XO-1!" thread for olpc-devel mailing list.)

update failures

sudo olpc-update -v candidate-872 never succeeded, and now sudo olpc-update -v candidate-872 fails as well: 

Trying irsync_pristine update from rsync://updates.laptop.org/build-candidate-873

Before I start I ping updates.laptop.org and it works. Sometimes afterwards the ping fails. It finally succeeded, consensus from e-mail to Testing is it's network woes.

Tried again and it got lots of rsync timeouts and errors, but finally succeeded (?) with "Performing full rsync". I don't trust it.

Freeing up space

Update ran out of space. That's not surprising, olpc-update works on XO-1! says "it needs ~470MB of free space to work and os860 pristine [10.1.3] leaves only ~380MB free."

I erased Firefox and Help activities from the Home ring, but they left MB of data in ~/.sugar/default/org.laptop.FirefoxActivity and ~/.sugar/default/org.laptop.HelpActivity. (This is SL bug #2074, fixed in more recent Sugar.)

I had some content (aka Collections) in Library that didn't show up in the Journal (or Home view), like WorldDigitalLibrary and WikisliceChemistry. This seems mostly content shipped with the release, see Collections#Removing a collection. TODO BUG: Verify in 11.2.0 then file a bug that there's no UI to remove this.

Success, 11.2.0!

Third `sudo olpc-update -v -v candidate-os870` completed OK, I shutdown (BUG?? no more Restart menu item in Home view?).

Held down check key. Same q2e45 ROM as before. Long pause on (roughly) "purging old something, this may take a while". X11 cursor, then Sugar spiral!

Old BUG: OLPC "Hello, children of the world!" message doesn't fit, longest line has " wereld!" running over.

A whopping 437MB free, presumably because the whole /versions/contents holding a previous version is gone, also hadn't run Software update yet.

How come Activities has Helpxoyuy1CT and writexofwuzad? (I noticed a file named similar to the former in 10.1.3.)

Where is Library content? My Libraries has only some .xols I installed, none of http://download.laptop.org/xo-1/os/candidate/870/os870.libraries.txt

The spiral home view got the Software update prompt, I let it run.

While Software update was up, I could tab to the Journal but couldn't type anything in its search box or do anything.

That said You can install 31 updates. ??!? That seems crazy, why is a recent build so out of date? I guess all the activities and library stuff doesn't come with the build but is triggered by Software update.

What happened to Alt-Ctrl-Neighborhood (Console), I couldn't bring this up, maybe also because Software Update on screen.

In Terminal, can't click both buttons to paste primary selection. As others noticed, Shift-Ctrl-C doesn't work, but in fact nothing works!

SoaS 2009-06-03 image

I ran livecd-iso-to-disk.sh on Kubuntu to create an XO USB boot disk.

Screen font tiny during text boot Screen cleared in text boot, then displayed more text boot.

Soas2 20090312

On a 2GB USB flash drive I let Live USB Creator create a 700MB area. But booting into Sugar Journal immediately popped up out of space.

I removed /usr/lib/perl5

I went to Collections, downloaded the story book, and Sugar crashed with some kind of exception taking me back to the "liveuser" blue login.

But the book was in my Journal and I could start it.

Browse

No home page, would be nice if there was one by default showing the media.

On login fields like wiki.laptop.org, font size in text and passwords way too small.

Curved edges on Textarea unpleasant.

rawhide-xo

Retried 20090312 , worked. Glitches in e-mail to fedora on XO and in new Rawhide-XO page

Tried http://dev.laptop.org/~cjb/rawhide-xo/ 20090307

Used `cat /proc/partitions` to figure out my USB in cygwin is /dev/sdb 

$ zcat 20090307.bootable.gz > /dev/sdb

gave 

gzip: stdout: Input/Output error

Probably because stupid SanDisk "2 GB" USB is actually "2,043,633,664 bytes (1.90 GB)". But since chkdsk reported no errors, tried it anyway.

Tried booting anyway, just stuck it in and restart.

candidate-801

upgrade from candidate-800 went fine.

On resume from standby, Sugar would often pick mesh instead of my WEP-password Linksys BEFW11 router AP. hard to tell if it's any better than 8.2.0.

Still got 

 some USB errors on the console during boot.

Shortly after boot the Frame showed mesh icon only. Went to Neighborhood view and as I was hovering over my preferred AP, it started connecting to it.

On next boot, by the time I looked at the frame, I was connected to my preferred AP.

Screen stayed on, shutdown hang.

With Home View and Browse running, I closed the lid. I noticed it was warm. The screen had been on all the time! Weird.

I chose Home View XO > Shutdown, console screen showed 

  xinit: unexpected signal 15.

and I couldn't get it to actually power down by pressing keys. I held down the power button and it powered off.

clean-install of 650 back to the future

To see how olpc-update works from candidate-765, I ran Clean-install procedure to get os650.zip and fs.zip on a USB flash drive.

First Erasing, bunch of black squares, then Writing, bunch of green then yellow dots. A few red ones.

then a restart, then Ship.1 build 650 Christmas 2007 baby!

No sudo, had to su -l but then 

 olpc-update candidate-765

more or less worked. irsync_pristine and irsync_dirty failed, but No out-of-memory.


During first boot, 

error about no /home/olpc/.ssh
error about chmod u+rw something something not valid.

No ~olpc/Activities

Software updates "Checking for updates" "Loading groups... took forever, part of progress bar blanked out. <trac>8681</trac> ?

I looked in journal, and there were two entries, "pi Seconds ago" and "oi 24 minutes ago", with a _-_- document logo. (I had just changed my timezone, maybe the time was off.)

Problems updating to 765

Mail "Signed candidate-765 and gg-765-2 builds available for testing" went out. I renamed my developer.sig key and tried 

 sudo olpc-update 8.2-765

but that build isn't signed so update complained so I killed it.

So I tried 

 sudo olpc-update candidate-765

that completed, suspiciously quickly.

But now my XO won't boot 

 Q2E1`8  Q2E
 Trying nand:\boot\runos.zip
   OS found - No signature for our key
 Boot failed  :-(

If I press the [o] key to boot the alternate image (which is presumably my previous unsigned build), I get the same error.

Solved by putting developer key on USB flash drive

I solved this problem by copying my backup of develop.sig to /security/develop.sig on a USB flash drive. With the USB flash drive inserted, booting from unsigned nand code worked.

Then I re-ran 

 sudo olpc-update candidate-765

and it worked fine.

Damn U3 technology f***s up USB drives

If you buy a USB flash drive, it probably has crappy invasive U3 technology. Even if you have autorun turned off, Windows' "helpful" USB driver auto-install will automatically install some stupid driver that presents the flash drive as both a removable drive and a CD-ROM. WTF!??!

So download and run http://www.sandisk.com/Assets/u3/launchpadremoval.exe , then open Device Manager and make sure you don't have a second CD-ROM.


Paint-23 on 8.2-763

(I sent this to devel list.

Paint-23 on 8.2-763. These are roughly in menu order.

If from Journal I double-click on a Paint activity icon, I get two icons in the Frame, one of which has a doubled menu ("Paint Activity - Resume - Stop - Resume - Stop") that I can't resume or stop. When I tried to reproduce I got two icons, the first had the doubled menu, but this time the second icon pulsed forever.


You can't name a paint session in Paint (6220, I added this to release notes).

I can copy Paint's marquee selection and it appears in the frame, but the selection seems inactive -- it's gray, has no hover menu, I can't drag it.

I couldn't get paste of a selection to work.

The Paint fill is so slow that I assumed the app had died.

The Tools menu looks like a tools palette but you it doesn't show the selected tool. Actually, there is one item that looks like a selected tool, but it's the rounded-rect around the current color.

The color selection swatches would be a lot more obvious if they started out as the kid's XO colors instead of black and black.

Meanwhile the T in the text menu does have a gray background as if it's selected, but it isn't until you click it. And the two effects icons have a white background as if they're active.

If you type a pencil or brush size in their drop-down menus you can't dismiss the menu from the keyboard.

The Pencil size seems unchanged after changing its size.

Polygon tool cursor doesn't look like the polygon tool icon.

The Shapes menu doesn't fit the available space, "Triangle" is in a more items drop-down. I would get rid of the "Line" shape so the Shapes menu can fit on the regular screen.

The menu is "Text", its menu item is "Type". What's the difference?

The image resize spinboxes are so slow if I paste a previous Paint image in, I assumed the app had died. If I type in the image resize text boxes nothing happens but I don't know if it's really slow or they're dead to text input. Ideally they'd immediately show the value you type in or spin to but then you'd get a busy cursor.

I can choose anything from the Journal for Image insert, e.g. a terminal session, but nothing happens if it isn't a previous Paint session. Is Paint meant to insert the preview image of non-Paint sessions?

After unsuccessfully changing the size of an inserted image, the pencil tool works but the paint tool gets stuck as a selection marquee tool (makes no sense, but it's happened three times to me).

The two Effects operations are next to each other and have similar icons but do completely different things. It would be better to separate them, and change the hover text for the first to "Make picture gray"

Notes on Software update of activities

Running 8.2-759, Software update offers me

  • Distance 12 to 13,
  • Firefox 4 to 6
  • Measure 17 to 19
  • Paint 20 to 22
  • Pippy 25 to 26

Modify activity groups is empty. Is it still going to Activities/Joyride ? That page has CC Licensing Activity and Scratch, yet Software update doesn't offer them.

I ran update and screen went blank and machine restarted. After restart, got new list of offered activities.

Looking at an activity like Cobble, it has two repeating forms each with:

  • URL for the .xo bundle:
  • Version number:
  • Releases tested on: 7.1.0 (650) 7.1.1 (653) 7.1.2 (656) 8.1.0 (703) 8.1.1 (708) Candidate
  • Development status:

That's bad, because this info is tied to the page, it isn't associated with each other. Same issue as multiple test results.

Can we have many-valued property Works_on: "version (build)", thus "26 (Candidate)", "24 (8.1.0)" But need URL in there as well... So I guess we need subpages with version support for each stream.

Notes on Update from 8.2-759 to 8.2-760

 sudo olpc-update 8.2-760

in Terminal Activity worked great! irsync pristine worked, verification worked.

After restart I got messages about writing NAND. It seemed that the reboot didn't tell me it was installing new firmware version Q2E17.

2nd restart displayed Q2E17, then booted into Sugar.

Got prompt to run Software update, but that reported "Could not access the network". I often get this problem.

bug?: With Software update panel up, I can't get to frame with mouse, but pressing the upper-right Frame key will show the frame, though it seems inactive.

The Frame showed an AP so I retried and it worked fine.


Display pulses after standby (Out-of-memory?)

Twice with 8.2-759 my XO had trouble displaying screen after being in "standby", the screen flashed on every 30 seconds. See User:Skierpage/out-of-memory for notes.

I sent e-mail XO screen pulses after "standby", OOM afterwards to devel@laptop.org and filed <trac>8490</trac>

People think its CPU pressure not OOM. Alas, there's no guide of helpful stuff to type in low memory.

Notes on Update from 8.2-757 to 8.2-759

sudo olpc-update 8.2-759 gave me the same Contents manifest failure at line 383 Last file examined: localtime error (<trac>8190</trac>. and the same (?) out of memory error <trac>5954</trac>).

Supposedly these are fixed in build 8.2-758, so I shouldn't experience them any more.

Home View > XO Man > Restart left me at

I got the same Contents manifest failure at line 383 Last file examined: localtime error, so filed <trac>8190</trac>. I got the same (?) out of memory error <trac>5954</trac>

Got a few hangs and instabilities.

Notes on Update from joyride-2230 to joyride-22713

Tried this, a later release than 2263 recommended by Friends in testing.

Trac 5954 crashes

Other times I tried this and other joyride updates the Terminal Activity vanished and I was back in Home view.

So I did it in a Console, and joyride-2273 installed fine. Some errorsl

Note the crash in irsync dirty update, that was killing, not just sudo olpc-update, but the Terminal activity.

This sounds like <trac>5954</trac> oom-killer during olpc-update.

Various

Terminal Activity mouse jumped to Activity, but then just the text "Activity" got stuck in the top right corner. if I brought up frame, it was still there, I couldn't choose a menu item of one of my running activities. Clicking other items in the frame, like network or speaker, would just highlight Activity.

I did Ctrl+Alt+Erase to restart X and Sugar.

Read of a PDF works, but Sugar activity handbook shouldn't be a PDF <trac>7898</trac> and I ran into "Keep error on exit" <trac>7843</trac>, I pasted my Read log error for the latter.

Read of a 4-page DjVu file shows 1/4, lets me advance, but doesn't show anything. When I page backwards it gets slow, then really slow, then cursor won't track and the machine is completely unresponsive. Had to power cycle. Nothing obvious in the error logs.

But then I tried again on another DjVu file from http://djvu.org/docs/, http://djvu.org/docs/1998_zcoder.djvu. All blank, showed 1 of 10. Then I zoomed out and saw the text of page 1!! But when I zoomed in, Read died, and Browse too!. Nothing in error log. I updated <trac>6223</trac>.

I couldn't find any help on the wiki in Support FAQ, searching for "freeze", etc. for what to do when the machine goes unresponsive.

Notes on Update from build 708 (8.1.2 candidate) to joyride-2230

Got a developer key, found a few bugs.

In 8.1.1, build 708, more /etc/issue shows 

 OLPC build update.1 708 (stream udpate.1; variant devel_jffs2)
 Kernel \r on an \m

Bug: last line seems bogus!?

Couldn't 

 sudo olpc-update 709

got "unknown moudle 'build-709': could not find build 709: are you sure it exists? Sure enough, rsync rsync://updates.laptop.org | sort doesn't list it.

OK, so much for trying 8.1.2!

Per Friends in Testing, 

 sudo olpc-update joyride-2230

seems to work.

Reboot

Note this update involves new firmware.

I pressed the check key to see information, below I type some of what I saw. I can't keep up with the text.

Trying nand:\security\developer.sig

Bugs, TODO

erased Log activity. No feedback after clicking [Erase] in confirm dialog. Still showed in Home view. If I clicked to start, I got endless pulsing icon.

Browse activity did go away when I erased it, as expected. (?)

Started Log after I'd erased it, it pulsed for a long time, then I had two Log activities on the Home view, one orange.  ?!
shell.log had errors 'No such file or directory' from execute_child from HomeBox.py

cat /etc/issue has a garbled second line: Kernel \r on an \m
Not a bug, /etc/issue is a template that gets filled in on new terminal.

<trac>7828</trac>In Home view , hovering on an activity brings up {name of activity} with an Erase menu item. But in the journal, the default for each "session document" is "Write Activity", "Terminal Activity", etc. and those also have an Erase menu item. One of those removes the activity's code, one just removes a "session document". I get them confused.

<trac>7830</trac> The submit button in the DevKey form file:///home/.devkey.html looks weird, "stripey"

<trac>7831</trac> The Journal menu for Stopwatch activity installed from OLPC library is too wide to fit screen.
