Changelog:
* First Fedora 13 ARM build for XO-1.75, based on the F13 beta2 release;
GNOME and Sugar both included.
* Move up to 2.6.39-rc4 kernel. Reboot and shutdown now work; reboot
depends on latest EC code.
* Remove broken F13 packages empathy, abiword/pyabiword, inkscape, csound,
espeak. If someone could work on successfully building these in F13
koji, would be great.
* Defaults to English language because we don't have an F13 olpc-utils yet.
To install:
ok fs-update ext:\os6.zd

inkscape/espeak look relatively easy to fix as the build.log indicates
they just need a patch for DSO linking.
abiword/empathy build issues are due to missing deps and again should
be relatively easy to fix once koji is back online.

There is an olpc-utils package built [1] on arm. So while it might not
be usuable for x86 related things that its used for I would have
thought it should be OK for the language side of things.

Cool - brief testing shows some good aspects and a wide range of instabilities
Good:
- it boots, gnome works
- connected to a WPA2 AP after a few tries
- installing olpc-utils from koji works nicely
- python-only activities start
Slightly less good
- boot messages are not shown on the XO's own screen, even trvial
boot hangs require a serial adapter
- clicking or pressing enter too early confuses gdm
- VT sessions would sometimes hang during "login"
- gnome terminal sessions could hang after a trivial session (mount
ext disk, rpm -ivh olpc-utils) - mouse flickers over window.
This is possibly due to the video driver situation, or IO, but
interaction felt laggy. Same unit feels more responsive and stable
with the F12 img, and with and update to F13 packages.
cheers,
