Video is, of course, the most stressful work one can ask of a
system, and the most common YouTube codecs these days (On2 VP6 and
H.264) are very processor-intensive.
Usually,the best workaround is to try to keep the framerate but
downsize to postage-stamp. No idea how that could be done though.
remember the URL should be http://www.sugarlabs.org and not http://sugarlabs.org
thanks

Thanks Simon, I have read the thread but it seems to apply to XOs
only
It applies to Soas.
My Acer Aspire One has a French azerty keyboard and boots up SoaS-1
and SoaS-2, but I can't find a way
I'm very pleased as well, one of our goals was to make Sugar Labs easy
to find and we are excellently referenced in Google, Google News, and
Google Blogs now - I check several times a day every day.
Another goal was to turn the tide of negative press and an article
like this is of course helpful

Success booting an XO-1 with March 23rd SoaS-1!
I allotted 130 Mb persistent storage on 2 Gb stick formatted FAT (not
FAT32) on WinXP then .iso loaded with fedora LiveUSB Creator v3.6.3

I confirm, I was able to boot that SoaS-2 image on an XO-1 and an Acer
Aspire One and despite having set 130 Mb of the 1 Gb stick for
persistent storage, the Journal told me on startup that it was full

By the way does anyone know how to specify a French

I strongly support anything we can do to tell users what it is they
are using, ideally with a version number.
Can we envisage a sugarlabs splash page after the fedora splash page?
As we tackle the support problem, helping a non-computer whiz user
easily identify the running version is vvery

I'm sorry, but I'm a bit confused here, is it possible or not at this
time to boot an XO-1 from a SoaS image (as we claim on the wiki:

if so, how

OK thanks Wade
If you can tell me just which image you have, I can try with that one.
Same behavior with the SD card in or out, and on the other XO with no
SD card at all.
Neither

hmmm... yes, I downloaded and installed v3.2 on March 4th... four days
before the new version came out!
the utility itself keeps as a big fat secret what version it is...
I'll be happy if that fixes
