Re: touchpad on OM
i find this a very good idea, without the right click there are tons of applications which just cannot be used!

I thought it would be handy to have a mouse pointer on the phone, driven by a touchpad area in the lower part of the screen. To click you just hit an appropriate button. This way you can do left click, right click, and any other mouse buttons you want. It should be useful for apps unsuited for finger use.

Everybody saying that it's right, but nobody explaining how to use it.. the problem is that it's not so simple to write an udev interface renaming rule because i don't know which interface udev will assign to the neo.. for example when i connect it i get eth1, suddenly renamed to eth7 by udev, but am i sure it will always get eth7? The page http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/USB_Networking explain how to setup nat and routing, but all the examples use usb0. The problem is that each different udev installation will assign a possibly different interface name to the neo, so what should one do? setup nat and routing for all the interfaces being attached? seems strange..
