Hi, Here's a patch that seems to make quitting the Colors! (version 4) activity work on candidate-765. I don't know how this change would affect operation on older XO builds. ---8<-- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Colors.activity]$ diff -u colors.py ../colors.py --- colors.py

2008-01-09 Thread Dan Krejsa
Hi, I just tried olpc update from joyride-1500 to joyride-1525, on a G1G1 XO. I ran sudo olpc-update joyride-1500 from the terminal activity, and sometime during (or after) the irsync-dirty part of the update, X restarted. I thought the laptop was rebooting, but examining /var/log/messages l

Hi, I (perhaps foolishly) updated to joyride-1496, and after rebooting my G1G1 XO cannot connect to my wireless router. After a while, the neigborhood view becomes completely blank. I didn't notice a Build announcement for 1496, but it is http://xs-dev.laptop.org/~cscott/olpc/streams/joyride/la
