Thank you Mikus. I may adapt that to my XO. I had only moved the largest 3 activities so it could be that they were not showing up and I had not noticed. I moved all of the activities (made /home/olpc/Activities a symlink) and nothing shows up on boot. Hard to miss that =]

I updated my XO-1 to 11.2.0 today.  I ran into a few minor issues
that I thought I would mention.

/etc/ssh/ssh_host_*key* were not saved during the update.  I did not
have a copy of them anywhere so I had to make new keys.  That is a
bit of an annoyance since I have to remove the old key from each
machine that I have sshed into the laptop from.

Interesting.  What method did you use to update?


sudo olpc-update --usb

Any warning on sshd changes would have been nice.

Good point.  It wasn't in the release notes.  I've added a tiny section.

I did check http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Ssh_into_the_XO to make sure
this was not already documented there.

That page had not been maintained since 2008.  I've adjusted it.  Please
review the page and adjust further based on what you find.  In
particular, the section for Microsoft Windows systems may be out of
date.


Thank you. If I am the only person that lost their ssh host keys then what is there looks great.


I suspect that the order of things has changed.  It appears that
Sugar is starting up before /media/* is being mounted.  I had moved
the larger activities to an SD card and now they no longer show up
when the laptop boots.  After the GUI is completely drawn I can
ctrl-alt-backspace to kill X.  When it comes back up all of the
activities are available.  I think this means that moving /home/olpc
to the SD card is out of the question.

Interesting.  That sounds like Sugar taking longer than before to start
up, but you're right, it could be an order of things change.  You might
work around it by mounting the SD card in /etc/rc.local.

These were not huge issues for me but they were different from every
other upgrade I have done in the past on my XO.

Thanks for your feedback!


And I thank you both for yours!

Jack
