Comment(by Quozl):

 |testcase|

  * boot two OLPC XOs to Sugar in OLPC OS 10.1.2 and disconnect wireless,

  * connect an ethernet cable between two USB ethernet adapters, (Some USB
 ethernet adapters may require a crossover cable.  The indicators should
 indicate that, or test it yourself in some other way first).

  * connect the USB ethernet adapters to the OLPC XOs,

  * watch for any adapter indicators, (these are relevant if you know from
 experience what they mean, since they vary across adapter models),

  * allow at least five to ten second to elapse,

  * check Sugar frame for an IP address assignment, in the palette of the
 USB network device icon, and record the result,

  * check Terminal using ''ifconfig'' for an IP address assignment, and
 note the bytes sent and received if there is no IP address (non zero
 values of received bytes indicate there is no need for a crossover cable,
 but zero value of received bytes does not prove there is a need for a
 crossover cable, since that might also happen if the other XO does not run
 ''avahi-autoipd'').

  * check Sugar neighbourhood view of each XO for the other XO icon,

  * check collaboration through activity sharing is operational, and record
 the result,

  * use the ''avahi-autoipd'' workaround if there was no IP address
 assignment,

  * repeat the Sugar frame, Terminal ifconfig, Sugar neighbourhood view,
 and collaboration tests above.

 Success: that an IP was automatically assigned and collaboration was
 possible.
