>Congrats! What are your plans to integrate this and to provide more drivers? Christos and all, obvious a certain person needs cvs commit ;) to integrate plans..what i'd like to see is: -debug usb_add and my usb_add setup.. i crash after some minutes (but that's just the emulator side) -debug the boot on real hardware i don't have any but, 1 person does testboots and has different results. so far he's done them w/o console, but he's getting closer to his debug board, there maybe having console. we're now at the point all tooling is there. -hope to get an X desktop this weekend or at the least know how much wscons wsdisplay there is using lcd0. -usb keyboard for wscons wskbd should be there(?) but usb keyboard on a neo-on-the-go looks a bit odd..so i'll try touch screen first -NAND file system has been mentioned a few times in http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-embed/ and recently in http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-kern/ so i stay off that whilst .. http://www.gelato.unsw.edu.au/lxr/source/drivers/mtd/nand/ is a good starting point ;) and would be doable if i succeed the touchscreen(?). but/and mind.. already multiple people have stated they have private implementations willing to share .. so we could have nand soon -http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/AUX_button -http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Neo1973_Power_Button -(SDHC) sd card -agps, audio, gsm/gprs -vibrator, backlight, accelerometer, etcetera -pkgsrc additions -pkgsrc/meta-pkgs/openmoko -pkgsrc/wm/matchbox-moko -pkgsrc/*/etcetera-moko think it's an interesting target (personal) machine w/ much modern appliance so others should join-in. (could be a hackaton subject, and good pr ..NetBSD endorses OpenMoko and Neo1973 in a week) --noud
