Nope, it's a saved Project Gutenberg PDF Coradella_Collegiate_Bookshelf_Collection_austen-persuasion.pdf, looks like it has one small image. Of course when I reproduce everything works fine. Is there *anything* testers can run before or after their XO goes funny? My fantasy would be a section in http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Friends_in_testing : "Run log_mem.py from a console as you start Sugar. This snapshots memory every 10 seconds to a rotating set of files in tmpfs until it detects that the machine has serious memory problems, then it runs a detailed /sys/procmem dump. It also runs strace on the OOMKiller thread. If your XO locks up, zip this directory and attach it to bug 4321." Without something like that, it'll be hard to get anything more from testers than anecdotes.
