The "We are the Knights who say... NI." release.
THIS IS A DEVELOPMENT RELEASE
The release is our first combined 12.1.0 / Fedora 17 release, such a small release but represents so much time by so many people in both OLPC and Fedora in the ARM side of things to get a "hardfp" ARM release.
This is post alpha F-17 so the major churn for Fedora development is now closed. Also note this release has the "usr move" too. The major features destined for Fedora 17 can be found here [1]. This is the first release using the new file naming scheme, details can be found here [2], it will allow an easier means of identifying builds, in particular makes it easy to differ a x86/arm build :)
Some of the notable details of this release are: - First 12.1.0 combined release for all devices :-) - Fedora 17 devel release [1] - ARM hardfp release for the XO 1.75 (note old F-14 armv5tel binaries won't run) - Latest Sugar 0.95.x devel releases - gnome 3.4 RC - gtk3 3.3.20 with multitouch! - xorg-x11-server 1.12 with XInput 2.2 (Mutlitouch). - plymouth pretty and fast boot - 3.3 based kernel for x86 XOs - 3.0 based kernel for ARM XOs - The latest firmwares - only 4Gb images, for 8Gb expand the FS, we need to review dependencies for 2Gb - a lot of various improvements

Great stuff!
I have filed the Browse related tickets 11716, 11718 testing on the XO-1.5. My 1.75 does boot until the naming screen but I can not use the trackpad or the keyboard. This is a 1.75 1B1 with 4GB.

Keyboard/trackpad both work here on 1.75 1C2 8GB. Constant libertas timeouts, though.

Yeah, flashed now another 1.75 machine (1C2 4GB) and the first boot when I did not sit next to the machine it came up the same as my 1B1 with a non usable keyboard and trackpad. I rebooted and directly entered a name and could use than the machine.
Things I came across from a first quick look: - the trackpad was not as good responsible - the neighborhood view had no APs listed - Paint did not start due to missing binaries (does start on the 1.5)

It might have crashed on its way into idle suspend (probably due to the libertas bugs) leading to an apparant symptom of no keyboard/trackpad. I stopped powerd straight away to avoid that.

Yeah, that is what I did, now I don't get hangs anymore at least. The trackpad is still not as responsible, though.
I filed a few more activity bugs on the sugarlabs tracker verifying the bugs we already found in os4 [1], marked them with the keyword '12.1.0'.

I would recommend disabling render acceleration in the xorg.conf of the 1.75 it seems to be very crashy.

On os5 "RenderAccel" is set to false already to workaround #11256 and #11237.

These crashes/hangs happen very reliable for me too. Stopping powerd was a nice hint :-) I did the following, in case someone has the same issues: 1. boot 2. switch to a console (CTRL+ALT+F2), as soon as the GUI starts 3. press enter to activate the shell 4. (optional) ignore the timeout errors related to the libertas driver, just keep typing 5. execute 'systemctl stop powerd.service' to stop the currently running daemon 6. execute 'systemctl disable powerd.service' to prevent the daemon from starting on the next boot
Now, I'd like to have the wireless working somehow. Any hints, or is there a ticket open for this already?
Thanks, Niels

We're not sure why the crashes are happening. If you (or anyone else) would be willing to help debug, it'd be appreciated. Either of these two tests would be helpful:
(1) Try installing the kernel from 11.3.1 build os31 on os5:
http://dev.laptop.org/~kernels/public_rpms/f14-xo1.75/kernel-3.0.19_xo1.75-2...
and see if the problem persists.
(2) Try installing the kernel from os5 onto 11.3.1 build os31:
http://dev.laptop.org/~kernels/public_rpms/f17-xo1.75/kernel-3.0.19_xo1.75-2...
That'll help work out whether the problem follows the kernel RPM or the build image. (Make sure that you've checked that you are actually running the newly-installed kernel, with uname -r.)
Thanks!

In both cases above you'll need to force the arch, the kernels themselves will work just fine but rpm won't allow you to install without using --ignorearch.

I tried (1) and the problem is not gone with that kernel. What I did was this:
1. boot the kernel 2. switch to console (CTRL+ALT+F2) to prevent locking up in plymouth 3. try to unload the libertas_sdio module (fails with kernel stack dump, but prevents timeout spamming) 4. # systemctl start powerd.service 5. show the systemd-journal to check that powerd has been started 6. wait until powerd kicks in 7. take a picture of the screen: - https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/mM9iK5dMUyz4BC54Wahn5PPU9FZYZ9jHSbJOyk...
This does not tell me a lot. Let me know if you want me to try booting (which kernel?) with 'no_console_suspend' and do some more tests. Unfortunately I do not have a working serial console setup atm (missing the USB-cable).
(2) Try installing the kernel from os5 onto 11.3.1 build os31:

Tried this build with an XO-1 and it boots OK.
It can connect to my wireless router.
Frame key does not invoke the Sugar Frame.
It try to use Browse to open a page, for example www.google.com, opens but then crashes straight away. Note that I ran software update form the Control Panel and it claim to update Browse from 133 to 134 but still showed 133 in the list view
Running ping in the Terminal activity returns: "ping: icmp open socket: Operation not permitted"
SDHC card in the XO-1's slot is not auto-mounted. USB drive is not auto-mounted.
I have not tried any other activities or gnome.

Thanks everyone for all the feedback so far!
We've put tickets in trac for the biggest issues reported here and will now be working to resolve all the problems. Stay tuned for new builds!

Customization maybe needed. On XO-1/os5 usb sticks are not automouted. /run/media is generated but nothing further. The stick does not show in the frame or the gnome desktop. Does show under Places>Computer but mount fails with operation not supported. SDcards do not generate a /run/media (or any other I could find) entry and do not show anywhere on sugar or gnome. Both sticks and cards mount fine with `sudo mount <device> <path>' These are with ext2/3 formated sticks and cards

No, I wasn't talking about the bug that leads to them not being mounted, that is well in hand already ... I was talking only about the change from /media to /run/media/$USER and the impact on documentation.

If things are not auto mounted or don't appear in sugar or gnome they are bugs that need to be investigated and not necessarily things that need to be customised. There's a lot more that has changed from Fedora 14 -> Fedora 17 than just the usrmove changes so it's extremely likely there are regressions that need investigating, it's a massive jump and there are a lot of underlying system level changes from systemd, usrmove, removal of consolekit, gnome-3 just to name but a few.

As per Peter's response in this same thread, there are *many* changes between F14 and F17. Which to bring to the attention of OLPC deployments is an interest question. (Not many of the changes will directly impact Sugar users once we get the bugs out, but deployment maintainers may have to change scripts, etc.)
