Thank you, install the current version alpha 1

EDIT : It works very well even if the interface is so bad for touch screen ...

Thanks for your release.

I also added xfce4-power-manager to show battery status, works fine :)

I will make some tests.

...can't you just 'insmod ar6000.ko mac_param=00:1D:FE:E1:xx:yy' and so on?

Also, a rep for driver sources should be here (OpenMoko also maintained their own rep)

After some tests, I can say that the touch screen is too sensitive. It detects my finger without touching the screen.


Do you think that it's possible to make Gnome Shell working with the touchpad OpenGL ES ?

I agree with you.
Unity or KDE Plasma Active will be good for a touch screen.

Very nice job :)


To get gnome-shell working, you need to build clutter with OpenGL ES support.

Clutter is the rendering backed of gnome-shell.

You can build it with the OpenGLES support, details below :

But I don't know if Xorg 3D driver is already working on your release.

Since I already have CM7 on my touchpad /boot is full.
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/root 31.0M 30.3M 656.0K 98% /boot')
Is there a way to expand /boot to make space for the ArchARM uImage?
It's quite strange that there seems to be no /dev/root.
EDIT: It seems like it's /dev/mmcblk0p13
