[iPAQ] RE: [Familiar] 2.4.7-rmk3-np1-hh9 GOOD Job!

The "-hh9" kernel and modules are in
ftp://lothlorien.handhelds.org/pub/linux/feeds/2.4.7/.
That includes the stowaway modules. There isn't a "stowd" program for
the simple reason that stowd is now equivalent to "cat /dev/stowaway".
Really. We'll probably put together a stowaway package that adds menu
entries, but there really isn't a need for a separate executable
anymore.

Incidentally, new kernels and packages usually show up first on
lothlorien and then work their way to the unstable feed as Alex and Carl
see fit.

Subject: [Familiar] 2.4.7-rmk3-np1-hh9 GOOD Job!

Guys,

Last night I found a task-bootstrap of the 0.5 alpha that Dave Neuer
configured with the 2.4.7-rmk3-np1-hh9 kernel and modules. I was able
to get it working without much trouble, and I gotta say,

Good Job Guys! First off, I knew about the little bug in the pm_helper
pointing to bash, after that was fixed, the etc/modules and
etc/conf.modules are still pointing to the wrong audio driver name. But
after that was fixed, everything worked as normal, but unfortunatly the
new hh9 stowaway driver (which i heard was fixed) was not included. But
anyways, I noticed that the audio drivers still lock up after a reboot,
so i edited the pm_helper script to rmmod all three drivers when a
suspend is issued, and to insmod h3600-uda1341 upon a resume. This
fixed everything! Not only can I suspend and resume then play a mp3, I
can SUSPEND WHILE PLAYING A SONG, and when i resume it continues playing
without missing a beat!!!!! This means that we've FINALLY kicked M$ CE
at something KOOL!!!

So, my questions are...

Why hasn't this kernel been posted onto the unstable feed yet (isn't
this what the unstable is for?? )

Can someone who's compiled the hh9 kernel pass out the new stowaway
module and stowd program??

Thanks all, and again, Thanks!

Robert.
