In what build(s) is this occurring? And are you using a schoolserver or
not?
OLPC release 10.1.3 fixed some issues with XO 1.5's waking up in response to
multicast traffic on the network. This is necessary for Salut/"under the

What is the current status of this effort? While it looks like the work is
completed for most XO keyboard styles, the patch for the mechanical/HS
keyboards ( https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34738 ) currently
is in a NEEDINFO state, and work on the Fulah keyboard (Freedesktop bug

Is there any expected impact to battery health or life from using a MPPT
(maximum power point tracking) charging technique?
How does this behave when it encounters an external charger which may be
inflexible in terms of voltage or current generated?

How did you do that?
I haven't implemented DEC ReGIS or Tektronix 4010/405x graphics support yet.

Hello all:
As many of you are aware, work is being done to improve the graphics
performance of various XO laptop platforms.
So in an attempt to improve things further, I looked into optimizing the
data Sugar sends to the video subsystem itself.
I think I have made some improvements, and put up s
The XO image OLPC supplies defaults to UTC. Users can select a time
zone offset in Sugar if they want, but it is purely a numerical control
at last check and does not allow you to choose a setting that is
regional (like "America/New York" or "EST5EDT", which include Daylight
Savings support).
The XO-1 will only see Ad-hoc XO-1.5 networks which currently have XOs
connected to them. It will not show all three Mayan icons unless there
is an XO-1.5 or other computers creating three Ad-hoc networks, one with
each of the desired names.
You will have to manually connect the XO-1 to an Ad
This may not always be guaranteed to be true, but I've noticed that the
"older Flash plugin" removed by Adobe's Flash RPM is Gnash, with the
uninstall done via a rather crude method (move the Netscape-style plugin
library & repackage).
The yum/rpm uninstall probably cleans a bit more, and perha
I am starting work on a set of test cases to use for the Fedora 14 x86
(XO-1.0 & 1.5) 11.2.0 build.
Currently I am drafting a list of generic test scenarios we may wish to
consider testing. That list is at

suggestions for additional th
I remember Slackware jumping from version 4 to 7 because the lower
number led people to believe it was behind what then just "Red Hat Linux".
My one concern though is if Fedora ever decided to do a point release
like Slackware does this would lead to confusion.
