Hi, I clicked the yellow triangle on the login screen for boot errors, there was one: Starting Avahi daemon... [FAILED] I suspect this is all some kind of filesystem corruption associated with your write to the SD card. I don't think I've seen anything like these errors myself.

Hi Martin, How does this relate to the recent SoaS builds? They're very similar, indeed. The rawhide-xo builds have both GNOME and Sugar for you to choose between, and we can imagine putting an OLPC kernel on to the XO builds to get better support, but otherwise they're pretty identical. -

That is somewhat helpful, but I suppose I was hoping for the XO-specific parts. E.g. power management? Does all the hardware work (leaving aside the stylus area, of course)? Is sugar installed and if so what version? Does wifi definition work in the sugar gui? That stuff. On Fri, Apr 3, 2009

It is as far as I'm aware plain rawhide which means it will be sugar 0.84 with default Fedora power stuff using the new devicekit [1]. All the hardware should work as expected and if it doesn't please report it, either here or in the Fedora Bugzilla. Cheers, Peter [1]
