RE: curious

The conf file I used were aquadran's, which can be located here:
http://handhelds.org/~joshua/index.php?path=h1910+Stuff/ and download
kernel_confs.tgz

there is a conf file for 2.4 and 2.6 in there.

Make sure you use the 2.6 kernel tree from the date the conf says it's
from... otherwise it will not work too well...or at all.

Hi,
Damien is right, there's no problem on booting linux on a 1900 but it
don't run propertly. I've some problems centering the tough-screen and
the funcionality is not as good as I'd like, but we have linux :D. Now
I'm compiling familiar 0.8.0 for arm pxa, because I've seen that the
one aquadran used was ¿0.7? I'm not sure , there's a file in /etc
directory where the version is. Well as i said I'm compiling now gpe
for arm pxa (familiar) because in #oe (irc.freenode.com) a guy told me
that in version 0.8.x touchscreen is controled by a library and you
can configure it using a conf file so I hope that it will solucionate
the problem, however I dont know if what is happening on my
touchscreen with aquadran's linux is normal.

Damien I'd thank u if you send me the conf files of your kernel, :D
