[olpc-help] Should I get a dev key?

[Michael Stone]

X restarting is rather annoying when you're doing work that may crash
Sugar. A good idea here is to edit /etc/inittab so that X is spawned
'once' instead of on a 'respawn' schedule.  (See the last line in
/etc/inittab)

Then, when X crashes, you can restart it manually by running the command
'olpc-dm' as root.

And while I can log in as root, that lasts for about 2 seconds and then it tries to start Sugar again and it don't work. And I tried to revert to a previous build with the "O" key and it don't work. O my. May have to resort to the activated upgrade approach.
