From the stars

Harald looked at optimizing the NAND memory speed timings on the GTA02: Some initial experiments show that the performance can be easily improved by 41%. However, the actual speed (6.59MBytes/sec) is still much lower than the theoretical maximum read performance of 15.64MBytes/sec. It seems there is more room for improvement inside the MTD layer of the Linux kernel.

Tick merged the fix for the 'Echo Bug’ ticket 1267 in the git around October 15th, it works, can use more field testing. See also the thread Echo issue on OM2008.08 solved on the community mailing list.

Outside Openmoko

  • Open Handset Alliance announces the launch of Android Open Source Project. Koolu announces that Koolu Beta port of Android for Freerunner will be available to download for existing Freerunner owners and installed on phones for sale in November 2008, contact Brian Code there. Sean McNeil has been working on it too.
