Build 163 has finally been smoke tested on a few platforms and released. This should be used for any new installations. This is a bug fix release of build 160, to ensure that ejabberd collaboration works properly when the school server can't be resolved using the DNS root servers (most cases !)
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/XS_Installing_Software#OLPC_XS_161 or download directly from: http://xs-dev.laptop.org/xs/OLPC_XS_163.iso Build 161 had libertas driver problems, and an improper fix to the above problem. I will push these packages (currently in the testing repo) into the stable repo sometime in the next week, probably incorporating a few more of Martin's bug fixes.. We of course eagerly await Martin's first official release! A note about Active Antennas: I was unable to test collaboration using a mesh at 1CC. Laptops could DHCP, and register, but failed to connect with the ejabberd server (eventually dropping to using salut, or link-local XMPP). This was probably due to the large number (over twenty) of other laptops in the area on the same channel, which weren't registered to this new, test server. The same server worked fine when moved to an environment with only three laptops and tested. The moral is to always keep your laptops registered with the server, to avoid problems... Time to automate this ? Cheers, wad _______________________________________________ Server-devel mailing list Server-devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel
