It is available as Release 10.1.2. This release is also available for the XO-1.5 laptop hardware.

None planned for now (August 2010). There is very preliminary, not even pre-alpha, work on builds based on Fedora 14 and Linux kernel 2.35, see mailing list discussion.

OLPC is not the only one making XO-1 operating system builds. You can also obtain builds from others in the wider community:

  • Bernie Innocenti, Sugar Labs, Paraguay Educa and Activity Central, in collaboration with Plan Ceibal, and other volunteers are maintaining a build of Sugar 0.88 on Fedora 11 for XO-1, also known as the "Dextrose" project. See more at Sugar Labs.
