I am by no means trying to rush you! I'm very grateful for the work that you're doing, and I would prefer that you do a good job over a rushed one. But a little timeframe wouldn't hurt for those that are stuck using the dpad to move around

I plan on releasing it soon, just got to add rotation and fix the N810 touchscreen again. I also need to fix the mplayer.


, I feel your pain, I had to use the d-pad. Infact, I didn't realise that the touchscreen patch on the site was for N810 so I was tapping and was upset when it worked on penguinbait's N810

But I got me a tissue and a text editor :P

Sound works fine, though.
Yes, I am aware of the problems . It basically happens because the framebuffer is set to be automatic in this kernel which basically means programs can write to there and have their screen drawn straight away (don't quote me on that) and android needs it because it uses framebuffer rather than x-server to show stuff on the screen.

mplayer uses framebuffer in some way and having it set to automatic throws it off, I plan on fixing that in the next kernel

(For now, you can use fanoush's fb_update_mode and set it to manual, only if you aren't using android, in that case use fb_update_mode to set it to manual)
