This battery is really strange...
After an O/N with the battery out of the XO tried to run it down and suddenly
none of the info in /sys/devices/0.baterry/power_supply/olpc-battery/ was
changing after an hour of CPU burn and the battery was showing as Full
Shutdown and removing the battery
I'm very suspect of this measurement. The 1.5 has
a hardware floating
point unit and the 1.75 is still using
soft-float. Its extremely unlikely
that the floating point performance on 1.75 is better
than the 1.5.
Hard FP status depends on if Yioryos is running 11.3.1 or
12.1.0.
Looking at those numbers I am quite certain that he is using F17 and
hardfp on the 1.75. Floating Point performance of the VIA vx855
chipset is a known limitation. It is something that they fixed in the
next generation vx900 chipset.
Got a reference for this known limitation ?
