Touchscreen works on my n800. I had a little hiccup with the fb_update_mode, I assumed that it came installed by default on the tablet (didn't know what it was). But eventually I got back to my shell, poked around, reread the thread, and downloaded a copy of fb_update_mode.

Qwerty, you referenced the right thread, but the wrong post (imo)

Thread(post): http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...d.php?p=167871
fb_update_mode: http://fanoush.wz.cz/maemo/fb_update_mode.tar.gz
Kernel Flasher: http://fanoush.wz.cz/maemo/kernel_flasher.tgz

Thanks for the neverending work Qwerty, I really appreciate your compiling and brain usage

Edit: Added a link to Fanoush's kernel flasher. Found some good instructions on how to use it over at the Screen Rotation thread: http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...hlight=fanoush

No, kernel_flasher, also by Fanoush; alternatively, you can use flasher-3.0 under Linux to flash it from your PC...

I've flashed the kernel but after reboot there's a new problem in maemo: all message windows are no more centered ! (up left or down right)

PS : Mplayer plays fine now. Nokia-to-nokia video chat too (it was also affected!).

EDIT : the windows can be dragged ! since when ???

That's nothing to do with this kernel

I presume you have installed the movable windows hack via qole's excellent chroot deb?

about fb_update_mode, i've extracted all of it in /usr/bin
is it necessary to extract all the files in archive or just "fb_update_mode" ?

What did "nothing..." mean?

I think you may not quite get what qwerty12 was saying...

Included in Qole's Debian chroot package is a tweak that makes all dialogs draggable; it helps a lot with some apps. An unpleasant side-effect is that they always show up in the top-left corner...

And it only takes effect next time the tablet's restarted, which is why you only saw it after rebooting with the new kernel.

Only fb_update_mode needs to be in /usr/bin
The rest of the files are source if I recall...
