testing os871 on G1G1 XO-1

07/01/2011 reflashed with USB

About my Computer

Build 871
sugar 0.92.2
firmware q2e45
wireless firmware 5.110.22.p23

• note very slow response
• Activities only start on second try (get "failed to start" on first try)

(This is related to a by a dbus timeout in Soasv4 and v5)

it takes about 15 seconds for a response.Including exiting an activity.

Testing

• Connect to Apple Network Airport Extreme AP WEP ASCII
• >Download IRC-10.xo from Browse Home (OLPC Activity Library/Activities -ASLO?)

connects fine(on second try) to #sugar and #sugar-es(Default)

• >Connected to Jabber.sugarlabs.org

only see shared activities NO Avitars

This may be a known bug in sugar 0.92.2 where the jabber gets overloaded with present and past Avitars from users. (I have seen >200 on screen) eventually only shared activities are displayed

http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/2897

This does not occur in sugar 0.88.1
