Hi, We're pleased to announce our second release candidate of our new 11.3.0 software release.
Information and installation instructions can be found here: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Release_notes/11.3.0 Quick links for those who know which files need to be grabbed and save to USB disks: http://download.laptop.org/xo-1/os/candidate/881/ http://download.laptop.org/xo-1.5/os/candidate/881/ http://download.laptop.org/xo-1.75/os/candidate/881/ This is a signed release candidate that can be installed on all XOs, even those with security enabled. We're looking for testing and feedback on all aspects of the system. Thanks for any help you can offer, and for all the feedback that was received throughout development. Our scheduled release date is November 1st. Please review the "Known problems" section of the release notes. Some documented issues are carried over from previous releases, but others are new and are things that we will aim to fix in the few weeks before release, including: XO-1.75 Sound does not work in many activities (ticket #11296). There is no suspend/resume support yet. There is slight mouse cursor visual corruption in Sugar, and the mouse cursor in GNOME appears odd, but is otherwise functional. Sometimes, part of the screen may not redraw correctly, such as Sugar's neighborhood view after dismissing the wireless security dialog (ticket #11273) Kernel messages are not sent over the serial console when booting in secure mode (ticket #11315). Changes since build 880: XO-1.75 audio is more functional. Some activities now work well (e.g. Memorize), some now work somewhat (e.g. Browse/totem), and some now encounter different errors from before (e.g. Etoys). Some sounds that get played still sound bad (depending on their format and sample rate) - we're still working on it. XO-1 audio now works again in secure mode. Minor activity updates to Abacus, FotoToon, TamTam, both Wikipedias and Words, mostly for translations. Keyboard autorepeat is disabled again in Sugar, and a bug related to filtering/coloring of icons on the neighborhood view was fixed. A few misbehaving keys on the mechanical "high school" keyboard model no longer misbehave.
