I was wondering if maybe 2.6.35+KP patches would allow us to update(overwrite/butcher) those libs without getting 'FATAL: kernel too old' error?
KP based on 2.6.28 and this will not change until Nokia reveals the sources for all the closed-source programs like the telephone applications and the hardware drivers for example.
I doubt they ever will so the only option to run other kernels is a dual boot, but than missing basic functions of the hardware.
Another question: why it has to be Ubuntu? I am using easydebian since n810-times and now on the n900- at the same time with maemo OS.
If you are looking for desktop-programs you find on ubuntu too use easy-debian. But now it's getting completely off-topic

Well, forward-porting n900 specific drivers could be doable, but it will be a hard and time-consuming job with unclear end result. BTW KP has so much fixes from newer kernels backported, that I would not call it 2.6.28

Is there any problems/bugs with last pre50 version?

If no, then I will push final version v50 to extras-devel & testing.

In freemangordon scratchbox build there are no unknown symbols... So I think problem is only with madde. autobuilder in extras using scratchbox, so this can be ignored...

AFAIK, KP50 is rock stable. There was one user who reported broken video playback, it turns out on his device gstreamer-openmax was causing DSP to give MMU faults. Solution was to get rid of gstreamer-openmax package and use the latest upstream gst-dsp.

In short, push KP50 in repos, if anyone has the same problem with DSP, the solution is known, will see how new gst-dsp will be distributed.
