Goals
The goal of a A-phase board bring-up is get a small number of boards to an acceptable state of functionality. At this point, a larger number of boards are modified to match and distributed for both extended testing of basic functionality (esp. memory stability) and development of software to access futher functionality.
The following are the goals of this bringup:
- Embedded Controller and power distribution working
- Memory controller working and memory stable (memtest86)
- OLPC display working
- Keyboard/mouse working
- USB working
- SD memory cards working
- Audio input and output
- Boots Linux kernel from USB or SD card
- C2/C3/Suspend/resume from OFW
Non-goals
- Camera input (driver won't be ready in time)
- Power management from Linux
- Windows boot
- SDIO WLAN
- X

Documentation
Early documentation may be obtained from a secure FTP site on dev.laptop.org:
sftp://dev.laptop.org/home/docs/1.5/
If you already have a login on dev, let wad know and he will get you access priviledges.
Much of the documentation is now available on the XO 1.5 A1 board page.
Lodging
We will be staying at:
- The Riviera - Mitch's suggestion (TripAdvisor ranked #4 of 192 hotels in Taipei - supposedly has free Internet) Orbitz shows availability late May - early June, $119.56/night, including free internet and breakfast.
Our recommended medical provider is:
- The Taipei Adventist Hospital - English speaking, decent care, just make sure to bring your own soap, towel, and arrange for outside food delivery.
