Re: [maemo-developers] SDHC Flash Support...

2007-02-02 Thread Jae Stutzman



It looks like that's an update to the 770 not the 800. I don't know
whether whatever's been done here was incorporated into the latest
kernel for the N800 (and therefore this patch). I had several reboots
which I attributed to the patch whilst trying to test it with dd. I
reflashed with the original firmware and was still getting the reboots.
I've filed a bug report regarding it:

https://maemo.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=956

I don't suppose you were doing anything like that? At least one person
on the Internet Tablet Talk forums initially thought that a reboot
they'd encountered was down to the patch but then later reported it was
running seemingly stable. There's also an issue with the file manager
formating cards using FAT and therefore limiting the card to 2Gb:

I did not use dd. I was a weanie and formated the card with fat32 with my
N800 hooked up to XP. I didn't have this problem before I flashed the
kernel...but I'd only had the device for a day.

I flashed this kernel and it recognizes my 8G SDHC card fine. However, now I
_seem_ to be getting random reboots. The question is that I noticed that
this bug (https://maemo.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=820) appears to be
fixed from the latest maemo update.

Does this custom kernel include the newest kernel code?

Is the standard out of the box N800 kernel? Is this your kernel? If 
so, would you mind providing at least an MD5 sum? A GPG signature would be 
even better. _Thank_ you _very_ much for the work, I am excited about

Any hints on how I might apply kernel patches to the Nokia 800 kernel 
myself?
