Hardware received middle of July 2009. Waiting for Fedora 11 ARM port and drivers to be ready for device before starting on XS work.
Needed bits have not been added to Kernel so full functionality of board is not available.
October 2010 - finally the Kernel patches have landed in linux-next. Git cloned kernel next 2.6.36 rc? and built it and some modules.
Proceeded to setup RFS using Fedora 11 for ARM (arm5tel).
Fedora F11 for ARM is missing major components required by the XS.
Fedora ARM project is currently porting Fedora 13 to ARM (arm5tel). I pointed out that the XS required certain components and those are in the build list.
Mid February 2011 - Fedora 13 for ARM is not ready for release.
