Sl-5500 Arrow Key
« on: January 21, 2006, 05:26:18 pm »
For some reason if i hold the right arrow key for a few seconds like when browseing or editing text. It suspends the system. I have flashed OZ and a few variants of the sharp rom and none of them do it. Any idea how to stop this or maybe disable suspend all to gether?

Applied the kernel patch and recompiled the kernel and now all is well. Thanks
Im guessing the apm patch fixed the crazy battery status? Was that patch in the link you sent?

no - apm patch was to fix loops during suspend/resume - kernel started to suspend device, told apmd to suspend but apmd was already suspended so it does not get info about resume - that kind of weird time related loops.

I posted link to right-arrow fix. We does not have problem with battery status in OZ.

I found a problem with my new compiled kernel. Its only using 32 of 64 megs. Do i have tp pass any special boot parm or did i miss something in the kernel? I used the pdaxrom-builder. Ill try again with the latest version and check back.
