are you talking about the arrow keys on the keypad?  or the round set
on the lower-left of the bezel (the d-pad)?  the d-pad has always
rotated with the screen.  but we've never rotated the action of the
keyboard arrows -- there aren't very many programs one would want to
use from the keyboard while rotated.  we can revisit this, but it's
never come up before.  (and for completeness, this isn't just a 180
degree issue, right, but also an issue at 90 and 270?)

  Filed http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/3713 for the offscreen issue.
  Not really sure what to do about the arrow keys issue - its an issue
  we'll have in all activities. Will give it some thought.
  
  Thanks for the great testing - looking forward to the next report :)

Hello,

I'm new on this list and I have a question related with the new firmware.

Should I do something on my XO 1.75 to get this firmware installed?
This is because I thought the firmware is updated after a fs-update,
but I'm not completely sure. I have installed os14 on my XO 1.75

Thanks and sorry for this noob question :)

firmware is bundled with releases, and when it is, it will be
installed automatically when you install the release.  that's fine for
many, many people.  in this case, it will always upgrade, and never
downgrade.  automatic installation will never take you backwards.

you can also install firmware manually:  put the .rom file on a
USB stick, and type flash u:\file.rom at the 'ok' prompt.  you
might do this to help with testing, or because you know that the
firmware fixes a known problem you're experiencing.  when installing
manually, you can do a downgrade.

Just be sure you have your XO connected to a power source. The firmware is
not installed if you are not connected or you don't have battery.
