New F13-arm build os15

The "olpc-utils and usable" build. http://build.laptop.org/F13-arm/os15/ Changelog: This build is very close to os14. Unless you are debugging boot issues, skip os14. What's new? * Will trigger runin scripts if TS is set to 'runin' in the mfg data (thanks Richard!) * Normal non-debugging kern

xo-1.75 support in olpc-utils

I've pushed out a patch with initial support for xo-1.75 -- it's on an 'xo-1.75' branch, if you think it passes review, perhaps worthy of a merge. Unless there's concerns with this, I'm planning to use this branch as a bit of a scratch branch for xo-1.75 support patches, so it's visible to you and

The "sound of reboot" build. http://build.laptop.org/F13-arm/os13/ Changelog: * Audio playback works with current OFW (Q4A16). Update OFW, perform a full poweroff (a soft-reboot does not clear audio registers), then test with aplay /usr/share/sound/alsa/* In earlier builds, audio playback would

The "better boot-time debugging" build. http://build.laptop.org/F13-arm/os12/ Changelog: * Early boot kernel debugging is now actually enabled - just like os11 promised (but didn't do). We still hope to understand #10991 * Updated olpc-runin-tests to v0.11-2 * Audio works... only when paired w

Re: Mangle support

Gerardo, one thing we've done in some deployments is to add a NetworkManager hook to overwrite /etc/resolv.conf -- then you can point all your XO clients to a DNS server of your choice. That DNS server of yours, you whitelist/blacklist manually, but it's easier to configure it as a forwarder agai

New F13-arm build os11

http://build.laptop.org/F13-arm/os11/ Changelog: * Audio and video should both work, thanks to a fix from Jonathan Corbet. Emphasis on 'should'... in my initial testing, I get buffer underrun messages from aplay. runin-camera does work. * Camera driver improvements -- now /runin/runin-camera run

Hi Daniel, Chris, looking at current olpc-os-builder, is there any gotchas you're aware of to build F-13 based images? The F-14 rebuild is taking a bit longer than expected, and I am fairly advanced in cleaning up the hacks we needed earlier to get builds for F-13/ARM. cheers, m --  martin.la
