1) i've just tried my Belkin FT0820 Bluetooth CF and : it has 4 lines of complains about serial_cs: unknown symbol serial8250_xxxx I had the same with my billionton card so I switched to kernel 2.6.22 . Now the messages are gone ! (symbol spectrum wifi also works like a charm) Now I'll have to figure out what's next, cause the usual "setserial" doesn't seem to work ... Any hints ? Chero. kernel 2.6.22 ??? where is it ? where is it ??? to have my belkin work under angstrom, i had to type: hciattach /dev/ttyS4 bcsp hope this helps! I'll check it out this evening. (my bluetooth card is at home) Where is the kernel : I downloaded the latest spitz images from the angstrom site. Then I first copied the modules from the hdimage1.tgz to the correct place. I put updater.sh together with ZImage.bin on an SD card and flashed the new kernel. (don't put the hdimage on the card !!!!) Chero. |

Off topic:
How is the 2.6.22 kernel running in general? What are the major improvements over 2.6.20 (like sound, speed, etc)? I am trying the older 2.6.17 kernel with fastfpe and cpufreq, and I now find the way to force the system to load my Ambicom WL1100C. Generally I find the system with the 2.6.17 kernel more responsive than the 2.6.20 in titchy, at least when running xfce4 (so many gnome stuff) and iceweasel. |

Where is the download location? I tried to find it but get lost ...
The only place I can find is here http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/unsta...spitz/20070917/, but which one? [ ] Angstrom-x11-image-glibc-ipk-2007.9-test-20070917-spitz-installkit.tgz 17-Sep-2007 09:48 17M [ ] Angstrom-x11-image-glibc-ipk-2007.9-test-20070917-spitz-installkit.tgz.md5 17-Sep-2007 09:48 170 [ ] Angstrom-x11-office-image-glibc-ipk-2007.9-test-20070917-spitz-installkit.tgz 17-Sep-2007 10:29 45M [ ] Angstrom-x11-office-image-glibc-ipk-2007.9-test-20070917-spitz-installkit.tgz.md5 17-Sep-2007 10:29 177 [ ] Angstrom-x11-pimlico-image-glibc-ipk-2007.9-test-20070917-spitz-installkit.tgz 17-Sep-2007 09:53 20M [ ] Angstrom-x11-pimlico-image-glibc-ipk-2007.9-test-20070917-spitz-installkit.tgz.md5 Also does hwclock work in 2.6.22? I cannot access the system clock after switching to 2.6.17 (complaint about missing /etc/rtc ). |

I cannot access the system clock after switching to 2.6.17 (complaint about missing /etc/rtc ). I used the big one. Not sure if it's any different for the others, I suppose the only difference are the included apps. I suppose it does : I didn't loose time-settings on reboot and I can use it to query the clock. (I use "date" to change settings, not sure what is called by it but it works) Chero. |

Thank. I just choose the small one. Will start over again.
The 2.6.22 kernel seems to have the cpufreq patch. Can you play with dvfm? dvfm 16 4 1 2 1 # 416 mhz dvfm 16 5 1 2 1 # 520 mhz dvfm 16 6 1 2 1 # 624 mhz |

How about reinstalling the libxfont1 package? Did you only remove xdm or also the so-called not longer needed packages ? Maybe just apt-get install xdm again and only remove it from rc.d. At least your BT card works .... Chero. |

- Not sure whether speed is different - I haven't been testing this. - The mouse is still "rotated". - both my wifi cards are recognized out of the box, without having two interfaces (wlan0 and wifi0) - my bluetooth-CF forces the serial_cs module to load without errors - sound : I'll check that one My ambicom wifi card cannot work again after switching to 2.6.22. Falling back to 2.6.20 it works just fine. Why? |

Good suggestion about a new thread - you took the words right out of my mouth ...
Can't test anything now - I'm creating a rootfs tarball My kids are using both my home-boxes and all I have left is my second Zaurus, so feel free to start the thread already. Edit : new thread created Chero. |

tested download speed with my belkin FT0820: speed seems limited to 9342 B/s .... (that was the same with angstrom)
with my MSI 6970 USB BT dongle, speed limit was about 43 Kb/s ! little bit disappointed....where is the bottleneck ? CF bus ? belkin limit ?? |
