Seems a little strange, I do not remember seeing this before (but it can
be that I just did not watch other upgrades).
1. Inserted the USB stick, did a 4 button update with the power plugged
in (and then left the stick inserted into the XO).
2. The machine rebooted without pretty boot (the little man with the
dots). I could see the linux boot messages with the 1L->X logo on top
and that is the strange thing. Then it asked for my name (as in first boot).
3. Then I shut down, and started to see if there was pretty boot. It
restarted immediately after talking about the firmware and then updated
the firmware. (I have no idea how could it work if the kernel would
depend on a feature in the new firware.)
4. Then it started with pretty boot and works not (except the wireless
needs the same canceling and then manual connection as I reported
hundreds of times....).
Now wireless does not work with my PRE-N Belkin router (WPA) as usual.
When it connects automatically then it throws up the password dialog and
no matter what I do it will not connect and shows me the password dialog
repeatedly. What I have to do is to cancel the dialog and click the AP
icon when it does not blink. Then it accepts (and remembers) the given
password. What I did is to look at the suspend/resume process by
pressing the power button and what I noticed that after a suspend the XO
looses the connection to the AP and it does the exact same thing as
after a power up. So after every resume I have to cancel the dialog and
connect manually.
Another thing is that after extended use the shutdown process halts
halfway and I have to press Alt+2 to continue. It then shows the
shutdown graphics and then the XO switches off. (It is also a long
standing bug.)
