 G1G1, Q2D16.  Just installed Joyride 2087.  (Before that, I was normally
 running f7 builds.)  Booting the XO gets to where the "circle of dots" is
 filled, and stops.  Period.  The XO is completely unresponsive -- the only
 button or key that works is 'power off'.  [I had seen this problem earlier
 when I tried olpc3-16.  This problem did not occur for me with Joyride
 2056 and before.]

 My bypass:  once the "circle of dots" has drawn two dots, I ontervene and
 use ctl-alt-F1 to get to the XO text console.  That shows me various
 system-initialization messages, and eventually switches (automatically)
 over to the graphical console, in which Sugar starts correctly.
