In a later email, same day, about 6h later, I understood it as a problem
with the sleep mode, which happened after 15 s of idle.
I postponed sleep to way after blank and now it's usable.
good. the latest version of powerd contains code to monitor
network usage, and to make a guess as to whether it's okay to
suspend. on XO-1.5 it seems to make yum work without extra
effort. i've not been able to test this on XO-1, so if someone
could do that, i'd appreciate it. (a yum update of olpc-powerd
may work, or, fetch olpc-powerd-18 from
http://dev.laptop.org/~pgf/rpms.)
the feature depends on the presence of iptables, so if that's not
there it won't work.
