Re: U-Boot for Nokia RX-51 with BootMenu (updated version 2012.10-rc3-1)

my upgrade went fine, also via FAM. I started from the the Pali U-Boot 2012.04-2. And with open keyboard I see the new one is active.

All fine here, thanks for the new release.

Re: U-Boot for Nokia RX-51 with BootMenu (updated version 2012.10-rc3-1)

small security question:

From version 2012.04-2 to the 2012.10-rc3-1 version, is the config file still valid ? Or do I have to modify entries in there to keep all working ?

Thanks.

Re: Kubuntu 11.10 mobile on N900 [TESTERS NEEDED]

What kernel did you use in this attempt ? You were really using Pali's 'u-boot with bootmenu for rx-51'
What were the setting you used in the .item file ?

Thanks.
