XO 1.5 Hardware Information and Updating

The XO 1.5 arrived here with build 201.  Right now, the latest build is 206.  I downloaded the files and updated the XO 1.5 per the instructions here:  http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Release_notes/10.1.1

Flashing it took about 10 minutes, versus the old XO's typical 5 minutes.  That's to be expected, however, given the amount of storage is about quadruple.

I powered up, and was prompted to enter my name and choose my color, just like any Sugar install.  Connecting to my network went as usual.  Once I got an IP, I went back to my desktop to scan the XO 1.5.

root@anna-desktop:~# nmap -sS 192.168.1.2

Starting Nmap 5.00 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2010-08-26 16:47 CDT
Interesting ports on 192.168.1.2 (192.168.1.2):
Not shown: 997 closed ports
PORT     STATE SERVICE
22/tcp   open  ssh
5298/tcp open  unknown
6000/tcp open  X11
MAC Address: 00:17:C4:A7:4D:83 (Quanta Microsystems)

Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 9.36 seconds

Oh, good, ssh is there.  I didn't initially see the terminal activity in the "Activity Ring" so I hit ctrl+alt+F1 to get a root console and set the password for the olpc user.  Then from my desktop:

ssh olpc@192.168.1.2

And I was in!

The familiar prompt came up:

 Dup dor a'az Mubster!              _____/    Bonjour, enfants du monde!
 Ciao, bambini di tutto il mondo!   || o ||    ¡Hola, chicos del mundo!
 Hallo, Kinder der Welt!            |._X_.|    Hallo, kinderen van de wereld!
 Hello, children of the world!     //_=_=_\   Olá, crianças do mundo!

[olpc@xo-a7-4d-83 ~]$

As an aside, when I ssh'd into the XO 1.5 running 201, which is what it arrived with, I had issues with the power management kicking in and causing my session to hang.  I haven't noticed that issue with 206.

Let's see what all's in /home/olpc

I see the Terminal Activity in this directory, so I wonder why it doesn't show up in the home view.  Here's a screenshot so you can see I'm not imagining it.

Look at all this space!

You need to be root to look at the hardware info.  Luckily "sudo su -" works like it always has on the XO.

There's tons of space on /var/cache/yum, so "yum update" ran OK, unlike the original XO running os850 where I have to mount a usb drive on /var/cache/yum.  Updates did take awhile, but finally completed.

The next order of business was to go ahead and request a developer key.  I was curious if a collection key would work like it does with the original XO, but it didn't.  So I opened the browse activity and requested it the "traditional" user way.  I could have also gone to https://activation.laptop.org/devkey/post/ and entered the SN and UUID I got from the dmidecode output.
