Hi I agree and many others do also, I think I'll make it a sfs, I've been working 21 days straight including weekends, and working on XO in spare time, Soon I'll be off for 3 weeks straight for the Christmas holidays. I've tried using Dpup but had some compiling issues, so now I'm trying to build Karmic Cola Upup, which is the latest woof series, That start is always slow, but once it takes off it should be great.alejol wrote:ttuuxxx, I live in Uruguay and my daughter Emilia has one XO.
I am very dissapointed with Sugar, and very upset with Journal. It is the worst file manager, and one of worst MIT's ideas. Journal impedes the sharing or saving files in a simple fashion with non-XO machines. The use of .metadata files obscures each file.
And Sugar interface is not standard, and our childrens do not learn how to use a *real* computer.
I appreciate your effort, and the hardware of the XO is not standard which makes your job difficult.
I will be very pleased to try Puppy in the XO .
My best wishes to be able to successfully complete your project!!
As for Sugar, I think I will make it a sfs, that can be loaded at boot or NOT Then everyone will be happy. Also I was thinking as to use IceWm as the window manager, the reason, I made some great themes in 4.2 that weren't all used. Plus I converted a couple. I don't see why if they are worried about kids messing up the system why I couldn't make a hidden or locked folder with .desktop files for configuring/installing etc and just keep the main apps in menu
