questions regarding the plans for 2008.11: Do you intend (or hope) for 2.6.28 kernel by then? I'm eagerly awaiting that for the plethora of webcams whose support is now in-kernel instead of out-of-tree module builds (in that regard, /please/ offer download of every single possibly-usable kernel module ;) I'm also eager to be able to utilize qi bootloader without losing audio.
What about the ever-worsening networking issues? (specifically DNS & default route) It seems that with each successive release of each image (OM 2008.x, FSO, SHR) things get more messed up wrt networking instead of improving. Resolvconf broken or absent, default route conflicts being 'solved' in shortsighted ways, routes and DNS blindly blowing away current settings instead of augmenting, etc. If each network interface properly utilizes resolvconf and default routes are prioritized via route metric then we reach a place where networking 'just works' most of the time. While I'm on the networking kick: Can we please please please rethink the whole usb0 192.168.0.202/24 idea?? Either shrink it to /30 with host/GW at 192.168.0.201, or use a different net entirely - that's THE most utilized private subnet on earth, meaning the most likely to engender conflicts and headaches. 192.168.0, 192.168.1, 192.168.6 and 192.168.2 are the most common /24s on small ethernet networks (read: set up by consumers, not gurus), roughly in that order - best to just avoid them completely since by design we're turning the host PC into a dual-homed system which has IMHO better than 95% chance of having one of those four networks on the 'other side' from the usbnet, as well as conflicts within the FR itself when wifi uses 192.18.0. (.1, .6 and .2 seem more common default on retail wifi routers though - they're usually clever enough to avoid the #1 192.168.0.0/24 - it only takes a few hundred support calls to realize THAT's a mistake easily avoided...) j _______________________________________________ devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
