Which Firmware Do You Have?
If your machine is not in secure mode, and you obtain the Ok prompt, the firmware version is displayed in the startup banner, thus:
OLPC XO 1.5, 1 GiB memory installed, 4 GB internal storage, S/N SHF7250024D OpenFirmware CL1 Q3A39 Q3A EC Firmware Ver:1.9.30 ^^^^^
If your machine is in secure mode, you can go to the Terminal activity and type
cat /ofw/openprom/model
If your machine is in secure mode but the operating system will not start, just go ahead and try to upgrade the firmware anyway. The procedure is safe and will not do anything if you already have up-to-date firmware.
You can see the firmware version in secure mode by powering up with the "check" game button held down.
You can also go to the main Sugar screen, click on the little man and select "My Settings" then "About my Computer."
