Hi,
some people in France (from La main à la pâte) designed a telescope for
the XO. It's a cheap ad hoc device they stick close to the camera, and
it can zoom by 10x -- useful for observing, say, the moon.
At this stage of the project, they have two problems:

Yes. I'm not sure how massive deployments are relevant, but we currently

Hi Ed,
note that the l10n packs for OO are *massive*. I think it is because
they include large dictionaries thesaurii, template files, localised
iconsets... etc.
There is probably room for trimming them down, and perhaps even
hardlinking identical images after installation. Hard to know what'll

Moon photos are a problem for just about any kind of astrophotography. In
addition to anything else you might try in software, the best bet is to add
some kind of neutral-density filter over the scope. You might try some scrap

I'll be repeating this test, but the first pass was encouraging.
The battery life when the laptop is suspended (but running
the backlight and the WLAN) of an XO-1 and an XO-1.5 were
compared.
The XO-1 lasted 10h 20m.
The XO-1.5 lasted 12h 15m.
WLAN wakeups were disabled on the XO-1 to even the

I am hoping a kind soul can rebuild an SRPM of my slighly patched
kernel, which is headed for 8.2.2, using the magic FC6 kernel
builder... if anyone remembers where that thing is! :-)
The SRPM builds very nice RPMs that test well on my XO-1s -- but there
are probably subtle dangers lurking there.

I think that you also need a driver for the specific device you want to use.
In this case that is CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_OPTION.
