 Through Joyride 1848, when I booted my G1G1 it connected (as an IPv4
 interface) to my local LAN through an USB-ethernet adapter.  Installed
 latest Joyride (1852+).  Now eth0 comes up as an IPv6 interface, and I
 have no connection to my local LAN.

 If I do 'sugar-control-panel -s radio off' and restart Sugar, that *does*
 switch eth1 to an IPv4 interface connected to my local LAN.  But to try to
 access a jabber-server on the internet, I need to have my local LAN
 connected right at XO boot time.
