Thanks nate!

Nate, I'm assuming that the kernel you used for this was the 1103 kernel? If not, can you confirm what the date of it was, so we know which changes were implemented and which were not? thanks again for all your time on this, you should have a donate button...

Finishmedic, yes, that is correct. I did a git pull on 11/4 (to make sure it was completely up to date), then I reverted the change and compiled. I will try to zip them up with dates the next time that I do it ;)

As for a donation button, I will consider adding one. I just want to make sure the real developers like ACL and the rest of the XDAndroid crew are receiving their due credit (donate at Donate - The XDAndroid Project).

I do plan on sticking to this project for at least another year (until I upgrade), and I just picked up Amazon.com: Linux Kernel Development eBook: Robert Love: Kindle Store: Reviews, Prices & more to start learning how to contribute a little better :)

Exactly! The change in button layout has proven quite unpopular. Look at the posts on this board and the comments on the glemsom "Latest Linux kernel zImages" site.

Only thing I can think of is to make the button layout variable so it does not interfere with development.

The kernel devs are the most unappreciated I think. But don't take credit away from yourself. Your work is valuable.

+1 on that.

This is almost always because the drivers did not install. Make sure you have the modules from my zip in the andboot folder. If it still doesn't work it's because the drivers can't install properly. To fix this you will need to delete your data.img.

I have this same Wi-Fi "Error", and deleting data.img did not fix it. I do see some errors in the log during boot up indicating the drivers did not install completely. Would posting a dmesg help isolate the issue? I'm using a Tilt 2 (RHOD300) with the FRX02 system, and your modded rootfs & kernel.

EDIT: I even reformatted my SD card, just in case some card corruption could be causing the issue. I'll try one more time without overclocking, and if I still get errors, I'll post the log.

Scratch that, just tested it myself. Wifi works on autobuild kernels, not on this one. Nate, did the modules file get build correctly...? Not sure what tiwlan needs, but it doesn't seem to be happy...

Yes, I verified it does work w/the 11/3 autobuild kernel & rootfs.
