Well It took me a few days to get the packages straight etc and I'm currently working XO OLPC project and this could be the base for it, We'll see how the testing of this base goes. If all works nicely then I'll start to compile a kernel for XO. I really wanted something solid for it.
What I'm figuring is that I could make 2 versions one with a XO kernel and One for mainstream, This release is a traditional one, good for desktop/laptops etc.

Hi ttuuxxx

Well karmic upup booted ok on my Athlon 2100+ but no xorg Crying or Very sad

.. I think it was the same with BK's snapshot... there is a fix, guess I'll need to dig iaround for it... xvesa no good on widescreen,

Something weird... I went to log in here and since I've been using dpup just instinctively started banging the number keypad and it worked .. but no numlock LED...555555555.. in fact just testing now the LED is acting real weird...555 (LED on) 555555 (LED off)555555555555 um, numlock can't be switced off... so K Upup is not compatible with a Micro$oft keyboard Laughing

Ok, more later

Cheers

I did a save back to CDRW, which worked incidentally Smile

. So yes, I'll keep it handy.

I did all my beta testing of 4.2 and 4.3 on CD savebacks.

Cheers

It's a Microsoft Wired Keyboard Model No- RT2300

Can't get xorg to work, raedon 9200 pro, 128MB, looks like I need drivers, although xorg reports everything as true and correct.

Hi ttuuxxx,

Just thought i'd visit the dark side... Smile

Tested here on 3 machines

1) Old P4 2.4 with i810 intel onboard video....xorg works... Smile

2) Dual Core 2.8 with nVidia 8800GT 512Mb....no xorg or Xvesa
3) Compaq 1.7 Core Duo i965 intel ....no xorg but Xvesa works but no good on widescreen...

Sorry to darken your day....gee it's fun building distro's isn't it.

BTW....same results with Barry's Upup

Cheers
Guy
