Excerpts from Julien Viard de Galbert's message of Thu Aug 19 20:30:14 +0200 2010: > I have working hardware and some time to give to debian. Great! What hardware do you have exactly? The XO-1.5 [1] uses the VX855. While I got it up & running with the bare minimums, everything a bit more advanced like RANDR and XV is broken (often hanging the entire machine). It would be awesome to see Debian work better on the XO-1.5 (it ships with a Fedora derivative); see also [2]. If you don't have VX855 based hardware already, you can apply to the OLPC Contributors Program [4] (please drop me a note if you do this so I can join in on the meeting to support your application). > I've setup a git working place including debian's git and upstream svn. > It looks like the experimental branches have not been updated for long. [...] Please update this bug report once you decided where to publish your packages so I can give them a try. > Finally I'm not DD (nor DM) so I will need help, review and sponsoring, > I hope some of you will have time for that. If you don't find a sponsor, you might try asking on the Debian-OLPC list [3].
