My experience with the XO-1.5 has been much better:
> 4) Both Browse and Firefox on Gnome don't load certain popular sites > (see below). I don't go to Gnome - I run both Browse and Firefox under Sugar. Neither Browse nor Firefox had any trouble whatsoever with either of those sites (Skype, Major League Baseball). Browse behaved nicely - if I clicked on one of the panels in the Baseball site, it opened a smaller window within the current one. With Firefox, I had to figure out what was happening - it opened another (full screen) Sugar window - so I had to go to the icon in Frame to close that subwindow. My explanation for the difference in behavior is *flash* -- I'm using the latest plugin from Adobe -- and I suspect you are not. [Firefox for me has video size adjustment problems - but that's firefox interfacing with video support, not "browsing" per se. Other browsers on XO-1.5 do not have the video size problem.] > 3) The network still shows three copies of every access point. I'm using os32. Have not used access points much (at home I have wired rather than wireless), but every location I've been in, Neighborhood View has shown me only one icon for every accessible access point. [But these days (os32), Frame is showing me two batteries -- and the percentage of charge is different between the two !!] > 2) Infoslicer always claimed it couldn't reach the network Did not run Infoslicer when away from home - so haven't tried it. > 1) ... someone hovered over the XO on > the desktop to pull up the config menu. The menu would open, not > display text, and the mouse and interface would stop working. I've had similar hurdles with Home View. What I've always been able to do is "brute force" - move the cursor, click, move the cursor, click, etc. So far, Home View responsiveness has always come back. [I've been using an external USB trackball with the XO-1.5.] mikus _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
