XO bluetooth support

2011-11-01 Thread Paul Fox
it seems that there's more interest in bluetooth support on the XO laptops than there has been in the past -- unsurprising, i guess, given the number of bt devices now available. i don't know how quickly we can get the support into an OLPC release, but regardless, i'd like to solicit input on

Hi Tony, interesting. Can you give us a summary of what the special sauce is for the Nepal XS? Are there things that could be rolled into the mainline XS? cheers, m On Sun, Oct 23, 2011 at 3:04 PM, Samuel Greenfeld greenf...@laptop.org wrote: Forwarding to the school server list.

Hi, Possibly the most important thing in this context is Daniel Drake's usbmount script system. This allows the content to be installed by these scripts after the original XS is installed. The principle packages in Nepal's XS are documented in detail in these links: NEXS Scripts,

XO-1.75 relative performance

2011-11-01 Thread Sridhar Dhanapalan
I am trying to get some idea of the performance of the XO-1.75 relative to other devices on the market. For instance, how would it compare against an iPad 1/2 and iPhone 4/4S? My guess is that the Armada 610 SoC that we use would come out somewhere in between the A4 chip used in the original iPad
