PETITION to Abill_uk to release the full "how to" of the USB Fix and USB HOST MODE to this Community.

[chan32167]

As everyone knows now Nokia have more or less ABANDONED the N900 and now it really IS down to this community to further any future development.

This thread is self explanitory to make an online Petition to abill_uk, the idea's to get abill_uk release the full "fix" of the USB problems and the USB HOST MODE, he alone discovered and perfected for our N900. INCLUDING PICTURES.

I will devote my time to further development only if i have the original source code available to me(not really i got no time), i am no way going to stab in the dark with this as the USB teams are, working almost blind with all the knowledge abill_uk keeps for himself components, quite frankly they will do a hell of a lot better armed with the full abill_uk know how of the N900 USB.

Everyone who would like to see N900 further developed please leave a post in agreement and any idea's you may have for Abill to release fully the Know How for the N900 USB problems and USB HOST MODE and for further N900 development.

If your vote is a NO could you please let us know why you voted no.

Please note that this Poll is public as you can click on the results table to get the voting list of names.

Please make sure everyone that you realise this is YOUR Community and this is YOUR Poll and feel free to give any idea's you have to enable further development of N900.

This Poll has no time limit and will be open for everyone at any time.

Any flame wars will be reported... not...


Edit2: well the source of this petition is this post: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=240
and well i remember some old post where he says he has USB host mode working... that he wont share it...

Edit3: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...=usb+host+mode well this is the other thread where he claims he has USB host mode working...

I Think He has been a little bit clear.

I don't get it, who is Abill_uk trying to boycott by this? Nokia? They don't give a ****, and I doubt we will have open source drivers unless someone's kind enough to write them, most likely being MAG. What does he mean by a "Solid Meego OS" ? By a Meego OS on the N900? Since I know he doesn't agree with the efforts of the Developer Edition...

what i dont get is how does he have it working... did he hack those drivers?? cause if you did read that post... he says he has it working without those drivers... or so i understand... why would he need the drivers??

Ah damn, I thought it was a petition to ban Abill_uk... Uh well, nothing to see here then.
