Hi list,

Yesterday I upgraded my Freerunner to the new SHR-testing, and I have
some issues. I posted those as ticket #999 (a real blocker) and #1000.

I hope these issues can be fixed, as they make the phone unusable as a
phone. I'm in #openmoko-cdevel to try things out if you can give me any
clue as to where to look or what to try.

Regards,
Sybren
