Perhaps it would be worthwhile creating a collection on http://activities.sugarlabs.org for 802 activities. > Interestingly http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Downloads indicate only Sugar on > a Stick for the XO - the link on Do you have an OLPC XO-1 is > http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_on_a_Stick/Installation/OLPC I am not sure what you are saying. We describe four different options for the OLPC XO-1 on http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_on_a_Stick/Installation/OLPC. We'll update the page to reflect the Blueberry release of Sugar on a Stick as soon as it is ready. > Are we abandoning Sugar for the XO, Walter? Not by any means; but to keep Sugar current on the OLPC XO-1, someone has to do the work of keeping the drivers up to date. I had been under the impression that the Fedora 11 work was progressing in parallel with the efforts for the OLPC XO-1.5, but for lack of sufficient resources, it seems to have lagged behind. It would be great if more hands could help with this effort. Meanwhile, we continue to work on Sugar-on-a-Stick options, that while lacking some drivers, will still give a great Sugar experience on the XO-1 hardware. > > and then you have to plod.

As per Wade's call for more reviews from the field, please encourage the teachers on Sur to contribute their opinions.

As I remarked above, perhaps an 802 collection would be worthwhile creating from the data you and Hernan collect. regards. -walter > Walter Bender wrote: > > OLPC is as far as I know, still recommending 8.02 for the OLPC XO 1.0. > Martin Langhoff is working on a revision of this build with a number > of bug fixes.
