Hi Chris and Tomeu, I've tried a few things but no joy yet other than my hardware XO seeing the image on my development machine over the network for a moment..
Thanks Chris for your quick reply! I already had installed the packages from months ago on this machine. It might have been customized 8.04 package instructions, it's been awhile. apt-get tells me the packages are the latest revision but I'll double check my sources.list.. I stopped tinkering with it because I didn't know the hardware and/or shortcut bindings I needed to be effective in a Sugar environment. Now that I have a hardware device and have seen some pointers on shortcuts I'm looking forward to getting this working again. I think it used to work. I do have functional mouse and keyboard when running the packages but the icons are not found in the theme making most navigation bordering on impossible with invisible icons. Also running the Terminal failed to launch. I tried as both my own user and as root user with identical results. Here are the error messages of my running the Ubuntu 8.10 packages on my machine. http://pastebin.be/16354 Again I've attached same error messages below that I think are relevant from this second pastebin. Tomeu, that link seems like it describes my problem exactlty! It seems like an xserver conflict of some kind but with the mouse and keyboard running OK in the packages it confuses me, indicating I'm about to learn something. :-) I'll read up and let you know if I get it sorted out. I am sure there would be tremendous value in having the git tree run out of the box on Ubuntu 8.10 systems and it seems so close for me. Maybe I'll try a full xsession instead of running in a window. Thank you both for your replies. I hope to have one of the two environments working pretty soon as I start to explore the code. My goal is to learn enough about NetworkManager, d-bus and wpa_supplicant to fix some bugs I've encountered in my own local AP environment - hidden AP ssid (non broadcasting) and using WEP40 ascii keys. On first look it seems some code is missing to handle this particular case but I'm still trying to sort out if that's true or not as I wander through and learn more about the code. I have a list of other 1st-time user bugs I've encountered as I've gotten more familiar with my XO-1 that I will try to get to filing when I can work them up into proper bug reports and verify they aren't duplicates in trac. My list currently has a crash bug on zooming that deleted the first write document I ever made (ouch), network view refreshing to white sometimes in different circumstances (I reloaded the 767image since and see no problems now), develop activity crashed the machine, NetworkManager throws an error when stopped twice, some spurious xkbdcomp errors, occasional scrollbars missing in the Browse activity (need to identify a repeatable case), time settings not written to /etc/localtime like I read it should, book style navigator OK button (check button on the screen) didnt' work as expected, rotating orientation of touchpad would be nice to syn with rotated screen orientation, etc. Thanks again for your help. I will report back when I make some progress.
