Hello,

There are a few problems on Beagleboard Angstrom. Those problems were
discovered on the Touch Book and are confirmed on the beagleboard with
the Linuxtag image:

Problem #1:
bc-cube doesn't work in 16 bit though it works in 32 bit with or without
VRFB.

Problem #2:
dsplink doesn't work if it runs as a non-root user. There is a decode
thread problem. No udev rule seems to fix the problem.

Problem #3:
Regarding dsplink, if VRFB is enabled, the video output is screwed while
using omapdmaifbsink. It's working without VRFB and dspbridge/gst-omapfb
works well with or without VRFB. It seems that "gfxAttrs.dim.lineLength
= omapfbsink->fixinfo.line_length;" is not really taken into account in
the code of omapdmaifbsink.

Problem #4:
cheese doesn't work properly. The webcam image is half screwed. More
precisely, libv4l generates a lot of errors even with an upgrade of this
component (see AI tree). Reverting to the previous state where
gst-plugins-good was not using libv4l avoids the problem. My current
configuration is 16bit-VRFB.

Problem 5:
The brigthness applet doesn't work and doesn't change the brightness.
Further investigations show that the applet behaves correctly, as well
as "dbus-send ... SetBrightness". But the applet calls org.Gnome.Power
and this space doesn't seem to be available.

Problem 6:
cacao and classpath-gtk don't work as well as there were before. Running
a simple applet such as:
http://git.alwaysinnovating.com/cgit.cgi/ai.openembedded.dev/tree/aios/postprocess/usr/bin/ai/test/InfixCalculator.jar
generates a lot of error. It may be due to a bad gtk+ update as the
cacao/classpath* packages don't seem to have been changed.

Problem 7:
Chromium recipe starts to be a little bit old. I have an upgraded recipe
which compiles and runs but then any page fails loading with a nss
error. Confirmation that I'm not the only one with this problem would be
a plus.


Getting a confirmation, then a fix or the contact person who can fix
those problems would be appreciated,
