Thank you, scheck.r!  
Have started recording this in the notes.
Anyone anything else?
Please write more!
The more issues we find in this one, the better build we will have in the NEXT one.

libiconv is used in pre-Beta4 releases. I also made a newer build in the "New Package Announcement" thread, together with gettext.

I installed the bzip2 dependancy, but what about libusb-0.1.so.4? What package has that library?

above 30% screen is bright
below 30% screen is dimmed
below 25% battery icon is red
below 13% Z shuts off
Same for me:
Above 30% of battery - everything OK
At 30% - backlight randomly is turns on/off
Below ~15% - Z suspends every few seconds (after around 20-25 suspends - apm just says: apm - device is busy).

I used alsamixer and tried the settings there (you have to use either arrow keys or "." or "m" to flip the switches).
At first there is no sound at all, both in xmms and in games.
Then after turning the last 3rd~5th switches to "00" (= on) (MM = mute).
Both the speaker and the headphone will have sound.
When turning off "Speaker", only headphone has sound, and the speaker is muted.
The man page is not of much help either:  [a href=\"http://www.die.net/doc/linux/man/man1/alsamixer.1.html]http://www.die.net/doc/linux/man/man1/alsamixer.1.html[/url]  

xmms play gives an error "failed to open audio output: eSound Output Plugin 1.2.10".

Two trivial ways to improve the precision of stylus pointer on Cxx0:

-- When (re)calibrating, do it with the stylus upright to the five crosshairs.
(remove the old calibration file with "rm /etc/pointercal" before recalibrating)

-- Tap the GUI buttons faster.

Works great, although I found a buzzing feedback was produced by un-muting the 3rd from-last (Output Mixer Mic Sidetone Switch), so be warned .

I installed the esound package, which is what I remember doing under r121. But even after that I get this as well when running from the command line:

Code: [Select]
esd: Esound sound daemon already running or stale UNIX socket
/tmp/.esd/socket
This socket already exists indicating esd is already running.
but the socket doesn't exist. Strange.

Of course, looking further back in [a href=\"https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=73&t=23788&hl=xmms&view=findpost&p=159198]this same subject[/url] gives the answer (change xmms's settings to not use esound).

Yes, i read that post before posting. But the output audio driver is already set to OSS. Changed it to alsa, but still got the same error.
esound is also already installed.

One more thing: SCIM cannot run in r197/r198. It seems to have something to do with the gtk library. Have read an old post that installing a Beta3 gtk lib will make it work. But this will come with a bigger cost that many newly updated gtk stuff in the new feeds may not run.
I know this is not a bug, and things like SCIM probably have to be recompiled. I did try to compile SCIM before. It ended up with tons of painful errors ...

mmm.. I had actually rebooted after changing my setting (which was esound, I changed it to alsa) because I wanted to test out something else. Maybe give that a try.
