This is a late announcement of the final release of the XO-1 images based on Fedora 11 and Sugar 0.84:  http://people.sugarlabs.org/bernie/olpc/f11-xo1-py/os180py.img  http://people.sugarlabs.org/bernie/olpc/f11-xo1-py/os180py.crc  http://people.sugarlabs.org/bernie/olpc/f11-xo1-py/os180py.img.fs.zip This build is being deployed to 10 schools in Caacupé [1]. Feedback from teachers and teacher trainers has been very positive so far. == Changes relative to the previous release (os140py) ==  * GSM broadband support: add usb_modeswitch and usb_modeswitch-data,   enabling more modem models to work with Fedora 11. (me)  * Credit Sugar Labs in boot animation (me)  * Add custom Browse home page with links to Paraguay Educa resources (rgs)  * Update Turtle Art to pick Spanish translation (walter)  * Re-enable olpc-update and the versioned fs (me)  * Point software update control panel at http://wiki.paraguayeduca.org  * Pull latest OS updates from upstream (fedora) == Bugs fixed ==  * Race condition with name widget in the activity toolbar   http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/1948  * Some activities crashing when resuming from the Journal   http://patchwork.sugarlabs.org/patch/15/ == Known bugs ==  * Unable to read FAT filesystems containing invalid file dates   http://patchwork.sugarlabs.org/patch/43/ == How to help testing == Feedback from the entire community is very appreciated, although we're not planning any further releases of the Sugar 0.84 series. Bugs affecting upstream components are better filed in their respective trackers:  * Sugar and activities: http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/  * Fedora 11: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/  * Drivers and OLPC customizations: http://dev.laptop.org/  * Paraguay-specific bugs: http://trac.paraguayeduca.org/ If you're unsure where a bug belongs to, use the Paragauy Educa tracker. Please, always assign these bugs to "Carlos", who will keep our status summary updated. == Using this build outside Paraguay == A few customizations make this image somewhat Paraguay-specific:  * Limited language support: to save space, we've included only   English and Spanish translations.  * Image signed with the Paraguay deployment keys. Laptops from other   regions need to be be unlocked in order to accept this image.  * The software update control panel icon checks for new activities   on our wiki rather than on laptop.org.  * The Browse home page contains the Paraguay Educa logo and a few   links to our website. We may find the time to release slightly modified images to meet the needs of other OLPC deployments interested in upgrading to Sugar 0.84. More importantly, we're happy to help other deployments produce their own OS images independently of us, thus exploiting Free Software's most important advantage [2]. == How to join development == This development cycle is closed as a new development cycle based on Sugar 0.88 has started already. Public builds will be available soon. Build system source:  http://git.paraguayeduca.org/gitweb/users/bernie/olpc-os-builder.git Yum Repository containing our custom RPMs (along with sources):  http://repo.paraguayeduca.org/f11-xo1-py/i386/os/  http://people.sugarlabs.org/bernie/olpc/pyeduca-repo/f11-xo1-py/ IRC:  #olpc-paraguay irc.feenode.net (English spoken) [1] The actual production build is os179py. The only difference between    os179py and os180py is improved compatibility with GSM modems.

This triggers a secure update through fs.zip.

On unlocked laptops, all you need to do is drop into the Open Firmware "ok" prompt and type:   copy-nand u:\os180py.img
