It should be 
http://linuxtogo.org/gowiki/Angstrom/Backport_from_dev_to_stable as LTG 
wiki is not for Ångström but for all projects. Thats common mistake done

Re: [Angstrom-devel] broken kdrive 1.4 | was [Angstrom-distro-users] 2008 distro unusable

  The default for 1.4 is now evdev, which is totally broken on Zaurus.
  
  Mouse evdev driver prints mouse position to console instead of moving
  pointer, keyboard evdev driver does not work at all (it seems that it
  does not find any device and KdGetOptions() argument parser is out of
  sync with evdev code complaining Kbd option key ... not assigned!).
  
  Old style keyboard driver -keybd keyboard works.
  
  Mouse driver -mouse mouse has initial problems with emulated protocol
  recognition, once recognized, it works, but uses different coordinate
  system. Tapping right, pointer goes up.
 
 Stanislav,
 
 Could you put your analysis above to the oe bugtracker and tag it with 
 priority critical? I'm also copying this to angstrom-dev list to 
 increase the awareness of this breakage.

Done:
http://bugs.openembedded.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3846

It is relatively easy to work-around these changes and regressions, but
it needs input of other machine mentors. Do they encounter the same
problems with kdrive 1.4?

 Mimecar,
 
 You may want to take a look at opie-taskbar-images recipes.
 do_configure and do_compile can be set as empty and you can copy the
 files around in do_install.

I should add that the easiest way to handle this would be just adding
a Makefile which will do all needed install to the icon set tarball,
and call that Makefile from .bb.

I've added contrib/angstrom/mtnlog2backports which will filter mtn log
--no-graph --no-files (note --no-files) output into format for
BACKPORTS.txt.

 
 If you can teach me what's the proper way to 'mtn pluck' them, I
 guess I can do it myself.

You just to mtn pluck -r rev one by one, from the oldest, committing
in between. mtn gives default commit message, you should remove first
line as you suggest. Each commit should still include revision which is
being merged and changelog subject for it, I suggest just pasting line
from BACKPORTS.txt. I leave mtn's default text where it is, at the top,
and paste such a line after it. That might help with automated parsing
of ever will be required. But thus such merges do not follow commit
message policy of normal commits.

One final note is that I found mtn pluck fail for the following case: a
rev adds a new files, next rev patches it. In this case, I just copy
changed files from dev, and commit reminder of revs together, pasting
few BACKPORTS.txt lines. Of course, you should be careful to not pull
more changes than needed in such case.

 
 Regards
 Gordon

Because it takes away choice from kernel recipe maintainers and it's
very non-OE for its hardcoding and non-extensibility.

If we want it in .dev as well, it will probable something like:


linux*.inc:
sed -e foo \
~-e bar \
~${DISTRO_KERNEL_MANGLE} \
~${MACHINE_KERNEL_MANGLE} \

echo CONFIG_FOO=y \
~ ${DISTRO_KERNEL_CONFIG} \
~ ${MACHINE_KERNEL_MANGLE} \

angstrom-version.conf:
${DISTRO_KERNEL_MANGLE} ?= -e /CONFIG_FUSE/d
${DISTRO_KERNEL_CONFIG} ?= CONFIG_FUSE=m

leet-machine.conf:
${MACHINE_KERNEL_MANGLE} = -e /LEET_DRIVER/d
${MACHINE_KERNEL_MANGLE} = LEET_DRIVER=y

And I'm not sure that will be acceptible either, but I'm currently too
short on time to come up with a proposal, test it and RFC it.

regards,

Koen

Kernel compiles fine with that. Sorry - I know - one patch for one
