Hi James and others...<div><br></div><div>I have seen some bug reports re 10.1.3. Is it ready for "big time?" I want the most stable build I can install to show the XOs to their best advantage at the expo. I have time to install 10.1.3 if it is decidedly better. I would like things to go as smoothly as possible as there will be times volunteers are running the booth while I do a presentation and/or help with Karsten Wade's hands-on workshop with XO-1s.</div><div><br></div><div>Caryl<br><br>> Date: Wed, 2 Feb 2011 10:24:22 +1100<br>> From: quozl@laptop.org<br>> To: support-gang@lists.laptop.org<br>> CC: iaep@lists.sugarlabs.org; support-gang@laptop.org<br>> Subject: Re: [support-gang] Assorted Observations and Comments<br>> <br>> On Tue, Feb 01, 2011 at 03:01:06PM -0800, Caryl Bigenho wrote:<br>> > 3) I do not see the Mayan numerals and access points anywhere.<br>> <br>> Expected, since you are not on the latest stable version. os852 is<br>> 10.1.2, and these Mayan numerals for ad-hoc channels were added for<br>> 10.1.3, which is os860.<br>> <br>> > XO-1.5 to XO-1 collaboration works just fine, although joining is a<br>> > little bit different.
