<div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">2a) GEORGE, In response to Tim's earlier mail, I myself don't yet see Same-Named <a href="http://dev.laptop.org/pub/firmware/q2f19/bootfw.zip" target="_blank">http://dev.laptop.org/pub/firmware/q2f19/bootfw.zip</a> within <a href="http://xsce.activitycentral.com/downloads/HaitiOS-0.6/boot/" target="_blank">http://xsce.activitycentral.com/downloads/HaitiOS-0.6/boot/</a> . It's vital that it be Same-Named (no 0,1,2 or 4 suffx) in the USB stick /boot to allow manual upgrade of firmware, no matter what legacy firmware exists on each random XO-1, as described here: <a href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Upgrading_firmware#Recipe" target="_blank">http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Upgrading_firmware#Recipe</a><br>
<br></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>given the potential for error, I re-downloaded the q2f199, and without changing name, copied it up to our boot directory.</div><div><br></div><div>Then when I tar-ed it all up, downloaded, the tar, expanded, I discovered that the presence of the bootfw.zip in the boot directory prevented the 4button load (finding the signed OS img using fs.zip or fs0.zip) from working.</div>
<div><br></div><div>The observation was that It didn't find the image after 4 button startup. Then moved /boot/bootfw.zip to /boot/<a href="http://bootfw.zip.gh">bootfw.zip.gh</a>, and the img was loaded.</div><div> </div>

Additionally, forced upgrade to <a href="http://dev.laptop.org/pub/firmware/q2f19/bootfw.zip" target="_blank">http://dev.laptop.org/pub/firmware/q2f19/bootfw.zip</a> would be truly lovely if we can force the copy of this file to the XO-1's /versions/boot/current/boot/ by hook or by crook during the 1st/2nd bootup after reflashing, if for whatever reason Jerry's TC tricks do not permit this as he'd hoped.<br>
<br></div><div class="gmail_extra">3) GEORGE/<b>SORA</b> should tell us which Activities to relegate to List View in addition to Portfolio, Log, Terminal. By default let's have all Activities on the ring/spiral available for exploration, even if the ~50 activities gets a bit crowded, let's give it a shot. Thanks Sora for manually Starring most all activities on your XO-1 business hours today (during your Dulles-MIA flight?) so George has marching orders by Dinnertime Latest Please.<br>
</div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I'm disappointed, but not surprised, that my first attempt to star all the activities using the /usr/share/sugar/data/activities.default apparently did not work. I'll check it out later today.</div>

<br>4) TIM/GEORGE. Artistic kids adore TuxPaint we need, as soon as we find a working rpm better than <a href="http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=tuxpaint" target="_blank">http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=tuxpaint</a> and then layer on <a href="http://people.sugarlabs.org/walter/TuxPaint-6.2.xo" target="_blank">http://people.sugarlabs.org/walter/TuxPaint-6.2.xo</a> or perhaps more likely <a href="http://dev.laptop.org/%7Edsd/activities/TuxPaint-6.2.xo" target="_blank">http://dev.laptop.org/~dsd/activities/TuxPaint-6.2.xo</a> ? If George/Tim/Curt can any traction at all from Jerry's suggestions here (I have not!) it'd be beautiful:<br>
