OLPC XO-1 Laptop Specs

I received my XO laptop the other day and before I started messing around with it too much I thought I would make an informative post regarding the specs of it. Since the operating system is based on Linux I will show you the commands you use at the Terminal to see some hardware information - these apply to all Linux-based OSes not just the OLPC one.

Once you've found the Terminal in Sugar and opened it you can type:
  • cat /proc/cpuinfo
On my XO-1 that results in the following output:

processor:0
vendor_id:AuthenticAMD
cpu family:5
model:10
model name:Geode(TM) Integrated Processor by AMD PCS
stepping:2
cpu MHz:431.222
cache size:128 KB
fdiv_bug:no
hlt_bug:no
f00f_bug:no
coma_bug:no
fpu:yes
fpu_exception:yes
cpuid level:1
wp:yes
flags:fpu de pse tsc msr cx8 sep pge cmov clflush mmx mmxext 3dnowext 3dnow
bogomips:863.54
clflush size:32

Now to see information about the memory in the system you type:
  • cat /proc/meminfo
The MemTotal for my system is MemTotal: 237852 kB
  • cat /proc/version
Provides an output of: Linux version 2.6.22-20071121.7.olpc.af3dd731d18bc39

  • df or df -h (for human readable format):

FilesystemSizeUsedAvailUse%Mounted on
mtd01.0G322M703M32%/
tmpfs35M035M0%/dev/shm


Those are the default file systems mounted on the XO-1.
