Re: Help getting started building & testing on the X50v...

I'm actually creating a "working" setup right now, with an image that
you can put on a regular fat32 sd card. It's got framebuffer output
(don't forget to enable mirror mode in the settings first) and a
graphical OPIE running. The big problem is that the touchscreen
coordinates aren't correct, even I run the calibration program first.

I hope Fisherss can reply to this problem soon, cause he is the one
that wrote the touchscreen driver (and everything else actually) :-)

I'll report in half an hour, when I've tested and uploaded everything.

Greetz,
JeDi
