Hmmm. I don't have wireless. If I type in 'telnetd', OFW scans for OLPCOFW, then for school-mesh channels, then gives up. I do have ethernet - but my XO-1.5's OFW (q3a39b) does not appear to recognize my ethernet dongle (SMC 2208) - its built-in LED never lights up. [But the built-in LED on an USB stick (plugged in alongside the ethernet dongle) *does* light up.] >> Yes, the 1.5 OFW does have 'bat-debug-log'.

I must have failed to have an USB stick plugged in. [I'll assume my "permanent" SD card does not count as 'disk:'.] Thanks for the ideas, mikus _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
