An Android 4.3.1 (Jelly Bean) build for the XO-4 laptop.
OLPC is preparing an Android, Sugar and Gnome dual-boot system for the
XO-4.
Our next development build is available, with the following changes:
- fix several graphics drawing failures on 1 GB RAM laptops, #12781
- only show onscreen key
Thanks. My guess is that either the apps need a GPS present,
regardless of whether it is on or off, or they are using display
features that aren't present.

Hi
Installed c:geo (geocaching app) gps essentials and osmand (open
street map). In all cases some or all of the screens display blank,
all black. One thing they have in common is that they display maps.
Another is that they use gps data when available, they should still
work with no gps,

Nice work.
I think the touchscreen driver is busted.
Open Firmware tracks two or three fingers nicely (if one avoids
occlusions in X and Y), but multitouch test apps in Android
confirm what I saw when trying to use Google Maps -- multitouch
is currently broken in Android.
Are bugs being tracked
This is a disturbingly nice build!
When video recording will also work will be great.
Tested bluetooth connection to an iMac with no issues (file transfers)
It would be nice if the screen rotation button could be used to block screen
rotation.

I don't have a hardware to debug 8686, so I just assume the driver in

It seems not in this case.
I will work with James try to find why. Thanks.

- incompatible with 4GB eMMC, only with 8 GB, my mistake in the

- incompatible with the Marvell 8686 Wireless LAN card, perhaps

Thanks. I'll ask. It appears we have the libertas driver built into
