Daily testing builds are available at: http://downloads.openmoko.org/daily/ You can get to the same place by setting your opkg feeds to http://downloads.openmoko.org/repository/testing/whatever then using opkg update and opkg upgrade. > I have been unable to get gsm0710muxd working properly yet, I believe > this is necessary for me to install minicom in order to input the AT > commands.

If you use gsm0710muxd then mickeyterm will be easier to use than minicom since it is aware of the multiplexer and will make the multiplexed connection for you. Once in mickeyterm issue the sleep command then use Ctrl-d to exit. You should only need to run it once after booting the phone. > On Mon, Nov 10, 2008 at 7:34 AM, Alastair Johnson > <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>> wrote: > > Paul wrote: > > I know there is a bug about the GSM network dropping for certain > > carriers which is supposed to be patched but not released. > > > > Has anyone found a workaround for this? > > If you mean bug #1024 the workaround is to prevent deep sleep of the GSM > modem using AT%SLEEP=2.
