hey guys, here in Nepal we are deciding whether or not to turn off the
mesh on our custom XO build in order to save power. We will leave on
regular wifi.
Any ideas on how much power we will actually save? An extra hour of
battery life would be worth it

Guys,
could someone update the mock 8.2.1 repos git repo?
would make my life a lot easier and seems like a sensible thing to do.
Thanks a lot!

It still is identical:

"Staging" is not "8.2.1" (yet).

I get the same for staging-11, I guess we have to use the full .img

it's the low power part that's very important here. it's the XO's
incredibly low power consumption that really sets it apart from any
other currently in production computer (excluding smartphones and
pdas).
I'm not really familiar with the new processors from Intel
(silverthorne, diamondville) and
