that one is probably because we dont have touchscreen support yet in the
kernel... (the touchscreen does work though if you get the module from
Eddi's web site http://www.dpeddi.com/h4100/)

That kernel isnt used at the moment, If you want to compile your own,
you should replace the one in windos ce. (the one haret uses to boot).

There should be a config file called ipaq_***.config, you can get it
from the same place you downloaded your kernel. or if you can ssh into
the ipaq (not sure if you can with that seg fault...) you could get the
config file from /proc/config.gz on the ipaq.

have fun,

P.S.

John,
since you have a h4350, I wonder if you can connect to haret via
telnet and send the output from:

pd 0x0c000000 0x400

Im going to try to get the keyboard working in linux and that command
would be very informative to me.
If you can't do it, its no problem.
thx,
sa
