Nothing new over here. I was able to boot Android 2.1 on the n900, but that was only after playing around with the omap framebuffer driver that doesn't support page flipping. I don't think anyone wants to see android only take up half the n900 screen :-)

Ok, so here it where it stands now. Android 2.1 boots on the N900, keyboard works, still no connectivity yet.
I've gotten the wl12xx wifi driver to load, but the wpa_supplicant has problems scanning for access points and its a kernel issue thats not supported. I even tried using the wlan 1251 driver from TI, but it fails when loading. And the drivers from http://linuxwireless.org fail to load also.
Bluetooth using rfkill doesn't seem to be supported either even if I enable it in the kernel.
Still kickin though! If anything I would at least like to get wifi working.

Thanks for the update!
Have you got the touch screen all sorted out now also?
Would love a list of what's functional and what isn't. =)
Such as:
- Phone
- SMS
- Music player
- Camera
- Video Calls
etc etc...

Then full phone functionality (call/sms) is next.
Then sound for music playback.
These alone would be good enough for me. =)
If you can get them working, would love a alpha-release to the public.

wowsers! bdogg you are making awesome progress. Are you trying to be a 1 man wrecking crew when it comes to getting this running or are up for help? (not from me
The reason I ask is that it seems like you are making a lot of progress yourself but might move even faster with multiple eyes on what you are doing.
Unrelated Rambling:
I never really understood how so many people got involved with making the Mer alternative when an open source, portable OS (Android) has been out there, waiting for someone smarter than I to port it to my beloved sidekick in the N810 (unless there is a huge, impassible obstacle).
