Yes, the first FAT partition is automatically mounted as an SD card.

please do tell. Also the correct power and switch gpio pins may help.

I had the same WiFi problem, but I managed to back up my settings before hand, so it works.

Where do you put the calibration tool? logcat still says that it is not found...

Code:

D/WifiService(  704): WifiService starting up with Wi-Fi enabled
I//system/bin/wlan_loader(  736): stlc45xx-cal calibration tool not present.
I//system/bin/wlan_loader(  736): Device will operate sub-obtimal.
I//system/bin/wlan_loader(  736): Download it from: http://stlc45xx.garage.maemo.org/
I//system/bin/wlan_loader(  736): Then place it at: /sdcard

I put it in the fat partition while in Maemo, is that right? Or should I push it with adb?

Also, I noticed this

W/HeadsetObserver( 704): This kernel does not have wired headset support

What does that mean?

Loving the LCD screen support, makes android "usable" as a full time device.

The soft keyboard, on the other hand, is horrible. Its hypersensitive, and pops up randomly. Is there a way for N810 users to disable it?

Also, SD card over USB works! Yes!

But still not time! Booo! <- (IMO, most important)

Sorry, I forgot to include that layout file in the new userspace but is fixed now.

New Android Cupcake requires >=2.6.27 BTW.

I plan too to port missing drivers to latest kernels, but I'm busy ATM with the selector.

You must place it on the FAT partition (mmcblk0p1).

You can disable it in Settings.

Yes, I'm aware

hopefully for the next release...

Thx to all for the massive support!

How are you getting SD card over USB? Does it just show up on your PC when the cable is plugged in?

If I have the SD card in while booting it hangs at boot. If I put the SD card in after booting it is not automatically mounted - I have to do it by hand running:

mount -t vfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /sdcard

However, if I then run the Media player for instance it gives me an error stating "Unable to access SD card" and logcat shows

Code:

I/ActivityManager(  710): Starting activity: Intent { action=android.intent.action.MAIN categories={android.intent.category.LAUNCHER} flags=0x10200000 comp={com.android.music/com.android.music.MusicBrowserActivity} }

@cyrus: We were talking that the first partition on the same card is mounted automatically, not the second card.

However from what you say it seems that Android prefers to mount it itself, maybe it should be defined somewhere (e.g. in an fstab way)...

Passed that stage - used fanoush's high speed kernel to build a correct and updated omap_mmc_platform_data structure to pass for initialization. Now i'm getting the error

Code:

mmc0: error -110 whilst initialising MMC card

At least i'm sure that it happens later in the initialization

Does the backlight now fade to black when not in use? That would be cool and make me not reflash back to Maemo right away next time round.

What is the best LINUX distro for Android dev? I'm thinking of ditching Ubuntu and going with OpenSuSE, as I want up to date Mono and Novel favours SuSE on that front. I figured out the Maemo dev kit should install as it uses tar.gz on non debian. So that was the thing holding me back. Don't want to jump ship if I'm on the best platform already.
