I am interested to know if anyone is using Jaunty / Zubuntu with alternative kernels?
I really like the work that Cortez has done on Zubuntu and Jaunty now seems to be working well, but I'm not too fond of the Omegamoon kernel. It's just downright strange. I cant use ssh as a normal user, I get all sorts of weirdo socket creation issues with various apps, and I had to diddle the dhcp client with setuid to get that to work. At the moment I am considering trying out the Yonggun kernel because I have had pretty good experiences using that with Debian. What other kernels have people tried? |

@ofels: There might be some minor differences between the akita and spitz, but I think support for both devices is compiled in
@jeana: I'll try that later. For now flash the multiboot kernel (details here) and setup a partition on SD/CF and copy the kernel into the /boot directory. This way size don't matter. @adf: Try 'export TSLIB_TSDEVICE=/dev/input/event1' before starting the gui, that should help ;-) |

Last thing it loaded was zaurusd, then a huge stack trace is spit out and it states: (GPIO_SET_VALUE+0X0/0X6C) FROM SPITZ_MIC_BIAS+0x50/0x64 [SOUND_SOC_SPITZ] with some more stack traces, however I could not type that fast. However this was the first one so I believe it is sound related. All I did was moving /boot/zImage out of the way (by renaming it), copying the 2.6.30 image as /boot/zImage and unpack the modules archive to /, then call depmod -a Update: I can move the snd_spitz_soc.ko module out of the way and it boots right away, then manually load the module via insmod and call /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart. This works. And I can confirm the touchscreen issue. Tried with Jaunty. Oliver |
