Hi Andrés,

Thanks for the feedback.

Clock is an Activity I recently adopted. Hmm, no useful errors/fails/ 
tracebacks there unfortunately (just warnings, FWIW SoaS seems to have  
pretty low threshold for debug output). Can you describe what you mean  
by "some times your can not see the clock". Does the screen go blank  
or grey, does it redraw strangely, or perhaps stop for a while? Can  
you see the Sugar toolbar, or is it just the clock 'canvas' area  
that's incorrect?

Hmm, not one of mine (nut I like it). I know this is PyGame based (as  
is Physics). Again, nothing fatal logged above. When you say 'wont  
start' do you see anything on screen after the pulsing icon at start- 
up; blank or grey screen? The "pausing activity" messages look like  
it's running (somewhere). I'm beginning to think low level graphics  
card driver issues (just a guess).

Again not mine, but Measure does/did have some custom hardware  
specific code for the XO laptop that allows its audio line-in to be  
set to special input modes allowing you to use it like an  
oscilloscope. I might expect this one to crash currently on some  
hardware It's been a while since I last tested this. It should ideally  
at least fail gracefully, and just disable those special features if  
not supported by the hardware (again I'm just guessing here from the  
log).

OK, Physics is something I do help maintain. Again no critical errors  
shown above, all normal (given the Soas debug level) for a working  
case of Physics. Physics is based on PyGame (as is Maze above). Thanks  
for the screen shots, these very much say to me "likely problems with  
graphics card driver". I do use and test Physics here in a number of  
different resolutions and different hardware.

Can you perhaps name the hardware you are running Soas? Graphics card  
details/type would be particularly useful so we can check if Fedora  
supports it correctly.

Thanks again for taking the time to provide us with feedback!

Regards,
--Gary
