If you still want to try getting this to work i suggest you read more on sphinx 3 (the numbers are not versions, so make sure its 3).

Comments on 8.2.759/E17
Left my kudos on this release in the support list. Very nice. Had a couple of issues, questions.. First, seems that external USB mice will not wake up the system. Only the touchpad or keyboard will wake up a sleeping XO. Does 759 REQUIRE Q2E17 firmware? I tried to install 759 while I still had E11 firmware running and the system wouldn't boot. I had to recover with a signed version installation. Once I updated to E17, 759 installed fine. If so, you might want to note that on the Wiki. Stopped for some time as I couldn't install activities using the control panel. Can't remember but I believe I saw a note on the wiki that security had to be enabled to install activities? Most likely it would be off since I was installing an unsigned release. In any case, this needs a better documentation or the sugar control panel should report this error. Seems that the XO now broadcasts an open wireless connection named olpc-mesh. This should be something that can be disabled in the control panel. Oh, nice font on the OpenFirmware display. Much easier to read than the older releases. Is there any way to manually load an older release as the alternate OS? Lastly, can I get the XO dude boot display running on this release? I assumed that I just needed to enable security but of course that locks up the XO (duh!). Thanks.

Grant's notes: Geoquiz-3 - Too easy to mistakenly select the wrong answer when using the left and right controllers (as suggested by the instructions). This problem is caused by Geoquiz not distinguishing between the left and right controllers. - Lesotho, Swaziland and Gambia aren't visible on the Africa map, so when these questions arise, the user can only guess. Swaziland and Gambia are blacked out on the map, while Lesotho appears as part of South Africa. - Completing the quiz (either Africa or South America) causes Geoquiz to crash! - The questions are always in the same order until the laptop is rebooted. - Got a segmentation fault during the normal usage of the activity! Wasn't reproducable. Stopwatch-1 - Worked well Bridge-1 - Seems a little harsh that girders that are deleted are still counted towards the total cost of the bridge, especially since they can't be moved once in place. - Some instructions would be helpful. (e.g. press space to start train) - Pressing the 'b', 'j', or 'p' keys crashes the activity! - Otherwise a great activity.

semantic black ops for Activities? (Re: Greg Smith's Weekly Report)
Summary: What do you want from activity wiki pages? (reply here or add to http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Talk:Semantic_MediaWiki#Activities ) A while ago Gary C Martin wrote: Any information on what the semantic wiki plan is/was all about? I never heard of any master plan, however people should note wiki pages that could or do use semantic annotations at http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Semantic_MediaWiki. The SMW extension is basically annotating information in wiki pages so you can browse, query, and reuse it; a bit like categorizing pages on steroids. Also someone installed the Semantic Forms extension which builds on SMW so you can edit certain page data in a form. Seems to have been some black ops project inside OLPC with no public documentation Dick Cheney denied this secret black ops project run outside of normal channels, so it must exist! I noticed a few weeks back that my activity page had turned into some monster QA template page if I now try and edit it... I haven't worked on the activity templates and forms. I think user:Xavi added the OBX templates to activity pages a while back; recently user:Femslade added Activity_page and Activity_bundle templates that annotate similar info, and you can edit them in a form. I don't know if anything reuses info like http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Property:Activity_version Greg Smith asked me: If we can edit activities page safely do you feel up to making some edits there... Maybe propose something on devel then we can approve and execute. Let me know if what we are looking for there is not clear. Sorry, I have no idea what people are looking for (Cheney keeps us all on a need-to-know basis, damn these freedom-destroying wikis with no congressional oversight!). My proposal would just be guesses, e.g.: * Unify the OBX templates and the semantic properties? * Unify the Creating_an_activity page and the new Form:Activity? * Automatically generate tables of activities? ** Replace (outdated?) Bundled/Core/Extra distinctions with a property? ** Display activity and versions compatible with a particular build? * Generate the Activity_microformat data for the pages that Software update parses (scary...)? Y'all can reply here, or edit http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Talk:Semantic_MediaWiki#Activities, or some other talk page in the wiki.

But, if the size of the dvd.iso is reduced as above, then it should fit on a single standard cdr. Looking for feedback first before I proceed.

The resulting img is about the same size as with Pungi :-/ It's only 411MB of packages, and /images weights 325MB. Why leave the boot.iso in tree before building disc1, that is what is causing the bloat. It was ok when boot.iso was only 15meg, but now... Rough thinning script: http://members.shaw.ca/jvonau/pub/mkslim Turns the current DVD sized install iso into a CD sized one.
