Hmmmm it's still there... http://buildhost.automated.it/u-boot-good-for-sd-boot-r13_0_2632_0.bin but it is old.... > > (I tried a FIC replacement which seemed to require an entirely different > way of populating the SD card, and I failed with that.) > > With your latest rootfs: > it rang my motorola, connected but with a numbered error, the call was > inaccessible. > try in the other directions > it tried for a long time no result > The use of an old u-boot may affect it, It did affect "underground" > quite strangely, changed the phone but helped the GPS. I can't remember if that uboot suffered from the nand not erasing prior to flashing problem. If you are experiencing issues with other builds that seem to be erratic then this *might* be the cause. You're obviously comfortable with flashing but there is a note to this effect on the wiki http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Flashing_openmoko you just need to be sure to specify which bit of the nand you are erasing otherwise it gets ugly fast. > I gave up but I have a lot I want to say: > I think those few who supplied their own builds were really helpful, and > the FIC daily snapshots are like that dance - 1 step forward and 2 back. > My builds are based on the development branch of openembedded so are a bit more bleeding edge than the standard FIC builds which are based on the "stable" Openmoko branch. This means that sometimes my builds can be a little broken or they can work wonderfully, having all the latest fixes. It's a bit pick and mix - I can't help that really, it's bleeding edge. > this is the one I like best: > FIC/OpenMoko-openmoko-devel-image-glibc-ipk-P1-Snapshot-20080118-fic-gta01. >rootfs.tar.gz I think it must be one of the last before they went berserk > trying to mix GTA01 and GTA02?

I think the issues with my builds and audio are fixed from 13th on, since I noted that the state files and .bb files were updated in oe, so forced a rebuild. You can certainly tell if any image has the issue with its state files by doing something like alsactl -f /etc/gsmhandset.state restore If it generates 3 lines of error then you need the updated .state files which I've made available here: http://buildhost.automated.it/audio-state-files.tar.gz they just need to be copied to /etc/ <snip> Andy
