Hi all,
is it possible, to you the touch screen as mouse in DirectFB applications, or with gpm? I tried some things, but without any success. I was not even able to find the xorg.conf, to find out how X handles the mouse. The only thing I figured out is that /dev/input/event0 is the device of magic.
My intention is to use a web browser without X (links2 in graphic mode) to save resources.

greetings

You start your dump with "1st part:" , is there a 2nd missing? I did not see the memory registers on a quick view.
 
I'll make a 64MB dump today, and post it for comparsion.

Sorry, I now found your 2nd part, and also the post with the comparsion log....

Do you have an idea of what and where needs to be patched? Over at xda-developers, cr2 hinted that haret's dump pxa27x command output should be compared between a 128MB and a 64MB Universal, to give an idea of the patch presumably. I've posted the 128MB Universal output at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.p...;postcount=2088

However, I don't have the 64MB output. Could you post it? Or could someone else post the haret's dump pxa27x command's output here? Instructions on how to capture the output easily on a Universal I've posted at: http://sumoudou.org/index.php?cmd=%E7%9B%B...PC%20connection

Yes, I have a, at least rough, idea where to patch. I the pxa specific code are some parts for the power management.  These are not so big, and it seems easy to find, where the resume is done.

Hi, I contacted cr2, and he confirmed the need of a kernel patch. I hope I find some time in the next days to have a look on it.

OK, just found the reference on xda-developers. It's a comment by cr2, reading:[div class=\'codetop\']CODE[/div][div class=\'codemain\' style=\'height:200px;white-space:pre;overflow:auto\']The only problem will pop up at resume, because the
HTC IPL sets the PXA memory controller as if there were 64MB RAM.
But it can be easily fixed by resetting them in the CPU resume function.[/div]
Anyone know how to do this?

I lack a bit of the context, but I suspect he talks about a fix in the linux kernel. Can you post the link?

Can you write something about the positive effect of the upgrade? My primary problem wit my universal is that is is horrible slow on linux. For my use case (remote linux server administration, nagios) I need VPN, ssh and a webbrowser (grafical, not lynx). But already opening a terminal window is very slow, a webbrowser is only usable with lots of passion...

Can you tell me how much speed improvements you got?

Are there other positive effects?

Does any body know if the kernel is still in active development? I can only find a quite old  2.6.21-hh20.

Hi ShiroiKuma

I have no memory upgrade jet, but I made some pre research... So I have two, probably stupid, questions:
Did you install a 128M aware Windows ROM?
Did you try the test program for the memory size?
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=286861&page=5)

Perhaps the author of that software might help, he claims in his profile to have a 128M Uni
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=224595)

Please let me know how things are going....
