Re: Cerebro performance

RPMS and better developer documentation will probably appear tomorrow, as soon as Polychronis and I manage to cut a release. As for the 'sugar/telepathy' help: the plan is to fill in the stub 'telepathy-cerebro' Telepathy ConnectionManager, then to implement a cerebro_plugin in the Sugar Presence

Installing RPMS via Customization Key

Friends, It's completely unsafe to use the new USB customization keys to execute software located on-key or on-NAND because any opportunity for arbitrary code execution as uid 0 represents a serious threat to our first-boot activation security. Since we appear to want to be able to customize imag

How can I prevent 'suspend' ?

No wireless; instead an USB-ethernet adapter. Whenever the XO suspends, it drops power on the USB. Then, when it resumes, it connects eth0 to the radio instead of to the ethernet. To avoid the XO disconnecting, I've done 'touch /etc/ohm/inhibit-suspend' Was looking at the "local library"

Why is Terminal 'extra' ?

Was not aware of the implications of "the official builds from now on will contain only _base_ Activities" (discussed in Ticket #6598), until I saw a recent post to the Sugar list. I happen to be a heavy CLI user. It appears the target countries for OLPC deployment have not insisted on CLI - h
