Yes, it is not the standard test.

I have a h2200 with zeevo that works with familiar 0.8.2 but not with this
0.8.3.
I don't know how to check where is the problem :
after hciattach I get an hciconfig -a that say DOWN

I have not tested but the drivers of 0.8.3 are not working with my kernel. With
my
Asus wifi card I use orinoco_cs.

By the way, some other small things :

1) the informations about packages are in /usr/lib/ipkg but in /etc/ipkg.conf it
seems
(I'm not sure of the sense of the configuration) that they are in /var/lib/ipkg

2) As in 0.8.2, I cannot use "Look and feel" in "Settings" : I can open it, make
modifications
but they are not saved and cliking on the "enter" button does nothing. I have to
use
the cross button of the window manager.

I have to say again thanks to all for this "release" that works quite without
any changes.
