The processor itself can support OTG. Am I being told that if the kernel was working perfectly I could still not use a program such as http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/usbcontrol/ to manually switch? I have heard a rumor that perhaps USB is not well enough supported yet in the kernel for OMAP3, though very unfortunately I have not taken time to look at it. If I could never ever use the n900 as a host that's absolutely terrible and extremely disappointing from a development viewpoint. It is no better than other phones then for many possible applications. _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
