Not for nothing... Please stop being a prick to people that are devoting a lot of time and energy to important projects.

You could have simply reminded him (yes, again) that he should post sources along with the binaries. Having worked on GPLed source quite a bit, I know in fast paced projects like this sometimes even I've forgotten to release source when I meant to. It's not like he's intentionally not posting source. He's a busy guy, with lots of things on his plate, both here and in real life.

Everyone here is a volunteer. Nobody is being paid. And even if they were, that doesn't give you the right to lecture them or talk down to them. Or to put it in your terms:

Please

Stop

Tantrums

Re: [Announce] USB hostmode beta release

Hmm just wonder if someone has tried a USBtoRS232(FT232) dongle on N900 would be great ithis is possible? to connect a serieport via USB. But I guess those FT232 chips eating power :-(

But it would be great to connect my n900 via serialline to a project at my work :-D

Yes, I mentioned early in this thread that I had success (except for the 32 second thing which has been partially fixed) with USB RS232 adapters. I have three different adapters and they all work with the N900 providing the power via HEN. But I had to build my own kernel modules. I don't plan to distribute it or explain how to build and install kernel modules, but here is a kernel configuration change, in case you happen to know what to do with it. Perhaps one of the alternate kernels will pick up support for this...

Re: [Announce] USB hostmode beta release

Now I just need a hostmode + power + 1.3 + u-boot kernel :)

Re: [Announce] USB hostmode beta release

titan just uploaded power kernel v41 to devel with 1.3 patches intact

First I need to find their latest patches and make sure they don't interfere with normal operation.

Re: [Announce] USB hostmode beta release

Now that titan appears to be on top of the kernel patches, could you remove the depends on kernel-hostmode? So we can easily update without forcing etc etc?
