<div dir="ltr">Hi Sam,<div><div class="gmail_extra"><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><ul><li>Who actually is using/testing these images?</li></ul></div></blockquote><div>I downloaded it (XO-1 and XO-4 versions). </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><ul><li>Why?</li></ul></div></blockquote><div>To test if all is working in a new Fedora, and to try find a solution </div><div>for the Browse problems in the XO-1. Sadly wifi connectivity </div><div>is not working ok in the F20 images.</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><ul><li>Is there a reason you are not looking into using an official (OLPC or deployment) build?<br></li></ul></div></blockquote><div>For distribution, today is more stable the F18 version. But we need move</div><div>then we need solve the problems we find in newer versions. </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><ul><li>Have you engaged OLPC or another party to work on changes?</li></ul></div></blockquote><div>Yes. </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><ul><li>What direction do you believe the builds should go?<br></li></ul></div></blockquote><div>I think we should try make a build using CentOS. I don't know </div><div>if have all the packages we need, but the rate of change in Fedora</div><div>was difficult to follow when OLPC had a team dedicated and now</div><div>is almost impossible. The true is we didn't finished to solve </div><div>the problems we found in F20, and Fedora is working in F22.</div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><p></p><p></p><p>Building XO builds by repacking existing work is relatively trivial.<br></p><p>But the low-level kernel, driver, and OS work necessary to support XOs with newer operating systems (as well as newer XO batteries) is something I cannot do, and where we really need help.</p></div></blockquote><div>+1</div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><p>Without guidance from OLPC or others, I could build thousands of XO-# laptop images.
