Thinking about it I thought it was the buffer for the brightness set.
Now I am thinking it might be a proximity sensor or the light sensor with a bad algo.
So back to where I was lol
I didn't try to push anything, I am sure ACL would beat me to death if I some how messed up the trunk. Being he probably has to give permission to people that can commit I think I am safe just to delete and reclone the git repo

yeah no one can commit .. if you do however get something working, by all means make a patch and we can apply it. Read up on the web how to create patches.
Keep in mind that we can dance around in circles over this but the fact is we need to learn more about wince to get things working. We have the programming talent, so its not like we dont know how to write the code. Its just lack of knowledge of the hardware that kills us.
Also you should take a look at Dzo's kernel. He has given us great ideas in the past.
SourceForge - androidhtc/kernel.git/summary
We can't obviously copy verbatim since its for a diff device, but he does do a lot of interesting things in there.
