It's a key mapping issue. It has been fixed in the latest version of Opie
(1.2.3), however the next problem is that there is no updated version of
Familiar that includes a version of Opie newer than 1.2.1, as Familiar
updates are not being produced right now. It is possible to build an Angstrom
+ Opie image for the h2200 and I'm quite happy to provide you with such an
image if you want it, on the understanding that it is completely unofficial.
However I can't really provide a feed of packages to go with it, which will
be a bit limiting.

This is my biggest source of pain at the moment. I am putting work into Opie
1.2.4 and yet nobody has really been able to get to 1.2.3 yet because there
is no distribution that includes it. :(

Cheers,
Paul
