Hi, I bought five XO-4s a few years back from ebay and managed to get TeX working on one. I wrote about it here: https://www.brandt.id.au/post/cute-lil-green-alien-olpc-xo-4-laptops/ Just recently I went to install the updated OS, thinking I could follow those instructions again, but yum doesn't seem to pick up the old repositories at all. Looking at the repos, some of the packages are still there, but not the xml index files which yum looks for. I can't email from the xo-4, so I have to type out the message
I tried "sudo yum install vim" http://rpmdropbox.laptop.org/f18/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] curl#22 - "The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found" Trying other mirror. Error: failure: repodata/repomd.xml from olpc-f18: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try. http://rpmdropbox.laptop.org/f18/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] curl#22 - "The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found" I tried looking for other repos, but it looks like they've all closed down. Any hope for these machinces? Veronica Brandt _______________________________________________ Olpc-open mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/olpc-open
