G'day Adam, http://laptop.org/7.1.0/gettingstarted/sharing.shtml is correct as far as it goes, and is the method I've used to test sharing between two XO-1.5 running os116. I didn't experience any difficulty, but the sharing does depend on the environment. I've had it working via ad-hoc "Create new wireless network" and via access point. I've no cable available.
There are several ways it can fail, but the sample problem report suggests that a slow or lossy network (Abiword in two minutes) was the main problem. The usual causes of a slow or lossy network are radiofrequency interference or other wireless traffic nearby. I'd like to know if the XO-1 was tested in the same location and at the same time, and if so whether the XO-1's were configured or had settled on mesh channel 1. Further diagnosis of the problem is certainly possible using shell tools in the Terminal window, but I'm not sure if you want that level of detail. -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ _______________________________________________ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
