After fixing my display (thanks Seth!) I'm now finally back in the 
possession of a working XO!

Anyway, I proceeded per cscott's test case description on #4951 and 
started off with build-656. The update to joyride-2153 seemed to work 
smoothly.

Upon the reboot I went to the Sugar-Control-Panel and selected "software 
update" and now it's been >10 minutes that I've been looking at the 
"looking for local activities" message and a progress-bar that's not 
moving. Pressing the "cancel" button doesn't have any effect whatsoever, 
I can only exit the screen by clicking on "X" in the corner of the window.

Might this issue be related to the fact that I simply don't have any 
activities installed at the moment?

Also one thing which I noticed is that the SCP window is an overlay 
which stay on top even when you switch to a different view, e.g. when 
going to the network view to check which network you're connected to.

I know this is very much anecdotal story-telling here, still hope it 
helps though...
