This build is the second RC for the 10.1.1 release; if no new blockers
appear, it will become the final release after a period of testing.
Some bugs that we'd like particular help testing:
*
http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/10045 :
- Fix loss of audio/video sync in Record activity. Some instances of
sync loss may remain, especially if you're running other activities
at the same time as Record; we'd like to hear your feedback.

http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/10168 :
- Fix "Scratch can freeze up after playing sound". See reproduction
instructions in the ticket.
Installed on my 1.5 after updating the firmware to q3a39.
Typing "boot" in OFW right after "fs-update" froze the machine.
Powered off (long-press on power button) and booted. Let it sit idle for a while in the
first-time Sugar screen (name dialog) -> machine froze.
Powered off again, booted. Entered name right away, works.
Tried sound playback in Scratch, it's choppy, many clicks to hear. Suspended fine,
resumed playing sound. Recording does not freeze the activity, but has bad quality.
Tried sound playback in Etoys, works fine, no clicks. Suspending with sound playing
freezes the activity. Recording still freezes it too. (Both is unsurprising, fix not
deployed yet)
Copied ~olpc/Activities/Sratch.activity/vm-sound-ALSA plugin to /usr/lib/squeak/3.10-5/.
After that, in Etoys playback sounds a bit worse, but it's still okay (hard to tell
actually). And no freeze after suspend, playing just resumes. So it would be a good idea
to use that ALSA plugin for Squeak in general, me thinks.
However, after letting the machine sit idle for a while (even just after booting, still in
the Sugar home screen), the whole machine froze. Power LED was still on. Had to
power-cycle. Does not happen all the time, but twice already. Maybe it's my machine
(one of the first C-test ones)?
