[jornada] Jornada 720

Hi,

I've finally managed to get around to playing with the Jornada a little more.
So, after a day I've finally managed to boot bootopie-v.0.8.0 familiar
without the flash-board.
I've compiled the stock handhelds cvs 2.4 kernel with initrd support (jacek's
hh3 jornada kernel would somehow not boot from the initrd) and booted it with
linexec. Works well so far but there are no jornada-specific extensions and
patches yet, I think. Opie is starting, calibrating and usable (have not
installed anything else yet). The GPE image would crash during the GPE
splash.

Anyway, I have a few questions:

* How can I load a linux-console keymap that fits the jornada (dumpkmap,
loadkmap seem too complicated?) - maybe a kernel patch? Or how to load one
into Opie, I assumed it uses the Linux FB console. Right now the upper row
has the number keys and so forth, so it is shifted and off.

* Where can I find the Jornada kernel patches for brightness, contrast, ... ?

If I'd work out the keyboard issue I'd like to pack up a small "distro" or
archive, just like on the nifty.* page with Peter Gerwinskis kernel and fs. I
find that a lot easier to use than ripping jffs2 images and fiddling with
initrds :)

And then, if I'll have some spare time, I'd still like to write kernel module
and modified linexec that will simply dump *all* the memory + vid. mem. +
registers to a file and then power off the Jornada. Then with Windows CE,
linexec would load that file and hopefully resume the kernel (hoping that
nothing needs reinitializatio :). Something like swsusp. Could this work??

Does anybody else have another idea for a "brute-force" (reboot to WinCE)
suspend? :)

BTW: With this new kernel I don't get the too bright WindowsCE screen anymore,
but then it crashes during CE "boot" :)

Greetings,
Lorant
