Re: Aximx50(v) Angstrom/Gpe build

Boots fine on my axim x50v, screen flickers a lot as previously mentioned,
touchscreen calibration is a bit off, and not responding very well as I
sometime have to tap the screen many times for it to respond press a button
or drag something.
Sleeping doesn't work, but adjusting brightness works.

I would definitely move to linux if above issues were fixed and wifi and
bluetooth worked.
Being able to boot directly to linux would also be very cool.
But sound isn't a big priority for me really.

I'm trying to learn coding, but I can only be called a n00b at best. Maybe I
can start contributing in a year or so :P

Anyway, I really appreciate the work you guys have done. This is totally
awesome.
