Additional information:
When I switch off auto suspend (suspend = off) the problem does not 
exist in OM2008.9. Display is on, and stays on while I plug in the USB 
cable. This is a good thing.

I'll try the opkg upgrade thing mentioned by Joel later on.

(OM2008.9) Flashback to QTextended

2008-10-20 Thread Paul

I put OM2008.9 in the flash this afternoon. It did not make me happy: it 
suffers from the same problem as when I run it from uSD: plugging in the 
USB when it's running makes the FR die.
I reflashed QTexended.

Would it be better to use OM2008.8 instead? Or does this suffer from the 
same problem?

I can live with most of the quirks of the FR, but this one is really 
annoying. I do not want to pull the battery out when I plug in the USB 
just because then the FR locks up and is really braindead.

OM2008.9 is just a snapshot during the evolution of 2008.8 toward today,
taken at the time of it's release.  if you install 2008.8 or 2008.9 and do
opkg upgrade you should end up at precisely the same place.

That said, have you tried the most recent 2008.x snapshot?  It's basically
2008.8 (or 2008.9 ;) 'opkg upgrade'd  through sometime last night.

Thanks! I'll have a look at that later today, when I get back from work.
