Testing 40002au4.zd image on XO-4

[James Cameron]

Thanks for the feedback.

Build 40002au4 is not public, it is a private build by a deployment,
so I can't really discuss it in detail, but some of the symptoms sound
similar to what I've been handling in the OLPC build 41001o4, which
can be found at: http://build.laptop.org/14.1.0/os1/xo-4/

By Piano perhaps you mean MusicKeyboard activity.  Yes, I think this
will be fixed in a new activity, I heard something about it privately.
I already removed it from the OLPC build until it gets fixed.  It
isn't in 41001o4.

The Write activity did not work for me.  I removed it from the OLPC
build until it gets fixed.  It isn't in 41001o4.  The activity log
(see the Log activity) only shows a segmentation fault (error 11) and
no detail.  I've not yet figured out what the problem is, but if
somebody else figures it out first, great.  I don't really know where
to look.

I haven't seen that.  You can probably help by using the Log activity
to get the Browse log and post it in a reply here.

I've fixed this for the next OLPC build already.  It is caused by the
mDNS server not starting properly.

I haven't seen that.  Can you give an example screenshot?  Does the
same picture look overexposed when accessed using Record instead of
the Journal preview?

Yes, GNOME requires OpenGL, and we don't have OpenGL, so I've removed
it from the OLPC build until it gets fixed.
