 From testing the latest OE-based images I did, I see one big 
showstopper for the next OpenSIMpad release: the SIMpad keys are 
definitely not working!!

Does anybody have an idea where this could come from (kernel? qte? 
qpe?), and how I could diagnose the problem more precisely?

In the 0.9.0-rc1 images Chris made, the keys were still working, but 
they didn't work anymore in the builds I did a few weeks after.

There are a few more problems I see:
- wellenreiter 2 wants Wireless Extension 17 whereas OpenSIMpad kernel 
is WE16 (should be easy to fix, just patch opie-wellenreiter so that it 
disables some of its features depending on the WE version... I don't 
even know if it really implements some WE17-specific features)
- dropbear (ssh server) asks for a passwd for root (patch not applied in 
OE?)

If there are some tester over there, do you see any other 
problem/showstopper
