+I've been assigned a problem with an invalid serial port baud
+rate after resume from software suspend.
+
+I started investigating the hard way, until ChrisBall pointed
+me on IRC to talk with the KernelHacker DavidWoodhouse, who
+obviously had a solution in a few seconds.  Unfortunately,
+it didn't work as we expected and MitchBradley of OpenFirmware
+joined the conversation to help.
+
+Having all the subsystem gurus available to fix your bugs makes
+things a lot easier...  Hehe, I think I like it ;-)
+
+And so tomorrow I'll get back to work on a MandelBug with the Xorg's
+driver for the AMD chipset.  When XVIDEO is enabled and you
+rotate the display with XRANDR, sometimes the X server crashes,
+sometimes it just hangs and sometimes it survives with a corrupted
+display.  And the bad news is that gdb also hangs.
+
+How will I fix this?  Easy: I'll go looking for the driver authors
+first thing tomorrow and beg them to send me a fix :-)
+
+By the way, lately I've been hanging regularly in #olpc on FreeNode.
+My nick is _bernie.  Come over to see what's going on!

+'''WARNING''': Technical AbraCadabra ahead!
+
+Today I met most of the team members and bothered a few of them,
+starting from DanWilliams who helped me debug a problem with a
+simple mesh networking scenario involving three laptops.
+
+Today I've also been assigned some work from ChrisBall, who also
+helped me out with many small things such as a dead battery,
+accessing the serial console, etc.  I'm currently adding a
+KernelDebugger command to display the ModelSpecificRegister's
+of the AmdGeodeCpu.
+
+But it seems like I will also refer to RedHat's ChrisBlizzard
+to be assigned more work.  We talked about optimizing the
+video driver for the AmdGeodeCpu, getting the resistive
+tablet to work and maybe adding "tapping" support to the
+capacitive touchpad.
+
+As you know, I like it even more when I'm allowed to ramble
+through a zillion different things like this!

+I'm writing this from within the OLPC headquarters.  I came today for
+a second interview and to get a few tasks assigned to me :-)

+I have no time to be more specific. Will tell you the details a little later.

 Today I finally rent a car.  It's a SaturnIon, a brand and model I never heard
 of before.

 of driving a car here in the States.
