Re: the powere button is non-responsive
now it is spinning through some bootish looking text ad infinitum. i don't believe i let it discharge, unlless the power from a plugged in eeepc is insufficient. it's pretty much either been plugged into the eeepc or the charger. this is unacceptable. I bought this beast in anticipation of building an appliance to assist the handicapped. so far, i am markedly unimpressed and feeling i wasted $400. ( more after i buy a winmobile device to replace it. with all of M$ problems, winmobile devices pretty much seem to function as expected.

( more after i buy a winmobile device why, what's wrong? the link i sent about battery problems says the charging problems have been sorted, but maybe is not in stable yet. there are lots of bug-fixes coming, if you want them now, untested, install 2008.12 and get the testing branch, with the 2.6.28 kernel to replace it. with all of M$ problems, winmobile devices pretty much seem to function as expected. haha try getting low-level access to the hardware in a winmobile device, like you can with the neo. try getting an engineer to tell you how such-and-such works, so you can programme round it oh, and to answer your other mail - angstrom is a linux distro, which om is based on ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
