note that i've also added detection code in runin-battery -- if
/sys/power/ec doesn't exist, it tries for the new debugfs node.
so that module already knows what platform it's on.

Sounds reasonable. James has been looking after runin so CC'd.

How are you determining in olpc-utils that you are running on a 1.75?
Is this available for runin to pickup?

Right now the battery test seems to skate by.  We have a minimum SOC 
diff of 20 clicks and the battery discharge test is coming in at 24 
clicks.  From the sample set I have so far the runin power draw seems to 
be very consistent and a margin of 4 may be enough but its pretty close. 
  I may need to adjust the test levels if a 1.75 is detected.

Thanks for sharing it. I agree with developing it as a scratch branch,
while temporary hacks are needed and it targets F13 instead of F14.

Looking at what is there already, I'm hopeful that you will soon have
device tree access working (this is not a big job) which would
eliminate the olpc-configure changes, and the X stuff seems to be in
flux so I think a scratch branch is the right place for now.

xo-1.75 support in olpc-utils

2011-06-23 Thread Martin Langhoff
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 others hacking on olpc-utils, and can be merged or reworked
as appropriate.

So far, so trivial http://dev.laptop.org/git/projects/olpc-utils/log/?h=xo-1.75

cheers,
