I am Sarah Elkins, a configuration management specialist (looking for my next job!). I have 2 XO-1 laptops from G1G1, and am a member of the OLPC Learning Club - DC (http://www.olpclearningclub.org/). I co-presented on the XO (I talked about views, Activities, the UI, and the Journal) to the Northern Virginia Linux User Group (http://www.novalug.com/). I have a technical blog (http://configures.sarahelkins.org/), with entries about OLPC, links to my resume, my tags, and more.

Fixed system clock

Mine came with the correct time zone, but the clock was off. I set it to the NIST clock and sync'd the hardware clock. Saved link to how to do this in [2]

Disabled Hot Corners

There's at least one thing about the standard Sugar interface which most users want to change. This is also known as the frame-shrink fix, and other names.

This requires just commenting out two lines in /usr/share/sugar/shell/view/frame/eventarea.py (as root, in Terminal):

   def _create_invisible(self, x, y, width, height):
       invisible = gtk.Invisible()
#        invisible.connect('enter-notify-event', self._enter_notify_cb)
#        invisible.connect('leave-notify-event', self._leave_notify_cb)

Fixed Chat scroll bug

 Saved how to do this somewhere in [http://www.connotea.org/user/selkins/tag/OLPC+how-to/

Installed x11vnc (for projector workaround)

Remote_Display (to display presentation on a projector via another Linux laptop with a data port)
