It seems to be mostly working on a XO-1.

I've blundered into one strange quirk.  If you wait until it blanks the 
screen, then ssh in and reboot via "shutdown -r now", you get stuck in a mode 
where the screen in blank.

It recovers if you "shutdown -h now" and then push the power-on button.

I find things like this in /var/log/messages

I see /sys/class/backlight/, but it is empty.

The power-off button doesn't seem to do anything.

Starting Browse gets a segfault:

Mar 25 14:05:41 xo-0d-57-33 kernel: [   93.272456] Browse <8addf8e[939]: 
segfault at 4 ip b766b28c sp bfdec810 error 4 in libpython2.7.so.1.0[b758b000+
15c000]


It's probably a good idea if somebody who knows what's going on takes a look 
at syslog on a XO-1.  I see things like these:

Mar 25 14:05:05 xo-0d-57-33 NetworkManager[401]: wifi_utils_get_mesh_channel: 
assertion `data->get_mesh_channel != NULL' failed
