That's not the build number. `cat /boot/olpc_build ` will give you the
build number. This stuff is under heavy development, so if you are
using an old build your bug reports are not very useful -- see here to
get a recent build: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/F11_for_1.5

On the XO-1 with build 8.2.0 it is called "olpc-netlog". On the XO-1.5
with a recent build, it is has been renamed to "olpc-log".

Cool -- please file it as a bug in dev.laptop.org

Please get an account on dev.laptop.org and file it as a bug there
(probably 2 separate bugs).

There are very few XO-1.5s around, so your help is needed. Very
important that you get an account on dev.laptop.org, download a
current version of the 1.5 OS and retest based on that.

And that's probably a 3rd bug :-)
