Problems with activities on OLPC

I have recently received an OLPC from the G1G1 campaign. I am trying to set it up for my son and I have found that many of the GCompris activities do not work. Also I have not found any game where there is any sound. I will list the problems I found. Please let me know if there are any fixes. Thanks.

I get "Couldn't find or load the file skins/gartoon/bar_bg.jpg This activity is incomplete. Exit it and report the problem to the authors" for: magic_hat_plus wordsgame readingv erase_clic memory_sound_tux

I get "Couldn't find the board menu, or plugin execution error" for: sudoku drawnumber watercycle anim mosaic

I get "Couldn't find or load the file skins/gartoons/timers/clock10.png This activiy is incomplete. Exit it and report the problem to the authors" for: read_colors

On Exit, do we really need the Are you sure you want to Quit? with Yes/No prompt? I just think thats annoying, especially since its so slow to paint.

This is fixed. You can download the fix at the usual place.

New to XO (OLPC) - Getting an error on using software (followline.activity) "Couldn't find the board menu, or plugin execution error" with "OK" button. Then screen shows red pointer (cursor) and bottom icons (airplane, tools, dice, lips, thumb and home) but no menu.

What am I missing to use the software? I've tried downloading directly to XO, downloading to SD card. I've tried running from SD card and also copying from SD card to Journal and Resume. All approaches have same error message.


Clicking Dice, Lips, Tools icon quits screen. Clicking Airplane shows a brief GCompris beta message then quits. Clicking Thumb has no response. Clicking Home clears icons from lower area but does not quit application, red cursor is still working.

Any suggestions to help me (others) get this software working would be appreciated. In my other computer life I use both Macintosh and Windows computers. -- MG
