r8 release from the Angstrom stable branch has been released. No critical change from r2. The next big thing is to bump kernel to 2.6.24. That should solve or remedy a bunch of kernel related problems.
status updated. |

When Angstrom is good enough and I can use my Tosa more, I will get a new battery. I'd like to use it as an in-car media player (with a wireless hard drive) and to run tomtom,! |
