cafe_ccic/ov7670 hang on boot

2008-06-17 Thread Daniel Drake
Hi Jon, We're working on updating the XO software to Fedora 9. One problem we are seeing is that quite regularly during boot, the whole system hangs after the "OV7670 at your service" message. The Fedora 9 stream (olpc3) includes an update from 2.6.22 to 2.6.25. Debugging on the XO is tricky but

Hi, Background for others: olpc3 is a bit broken because HAL doesn't let sugar do anything like mount USB drives, reboot/shutdown, etc. This is because HAL is not able to determine if sugar is the "active" user of the machine. sugar (well, olpc-dm) needs to register itself with ConsoleKit so that
