Since the upgrade, I've done a little more experimenting.

I can make it read and unmount cards. I can open documents and pdfs. As I suspected, the problem the first time was that the pdf I wanted to open was too big for the XO to be happy with.

[livejournal.com profile] mnemex said setting up swap space might help, but also that it would be useful if the XO could read cards in usb card readers. Well, in a terminal screen it can, but that doesn't help if I'm in the journal and it doesn't pick up the card in the reader.

I showed it to my brother today, and he had the same first reaction I did -- he said that it looked like an etch-a-sketch.
