As a developer, I want to be able to extend and add software to OpenMoko. Afaik this can be done wih separate ipkgs, as well as building your own image. For reasons of accepting my additions and changes, I think I'll need the second, eventually. Creating ipkgs is smoother when using bitbake in the local part of the OE tree, too. All the rest is a consequence of that desire. Things "just break". They shouldn't, imho, but they do. So, on a reasonably fresh update (today, as well as last Thu evening) both dropbear and the graphical environment are broken. Let's start with dropbear. It's simpler. Is dropbear broken for other people updating their OM dev env? > Could you describe the problems with libgsmd and gsmd in a bit more > detail?

After using libgsmd on gsmd for a bit, something starts spitting out lots of "P[" or something like it. Fills the console of the Neo easily. Then it stops spitting. Neo locks up, reboot necessary. Spitting of stuff happens, without me using libgsmd or gsmd, even with symlinks in /etc/rc*.d removed. Succeful booting becomes impossible, I do not get an ssh connection going anymore. Neo might be locked at that point, but I can not verify that. Reinstall needed. So far, I have absolutely not been able to figure anything out. Is it the kernel? likely. Which part causes it? communication by gsmd, I'd guess. Specific communication? I need CPIN and I haven't seen a GUI app that requests a PIN code. So I guess there's only a handful of people using PIN codes. But that's going on a limb. What gets broken? Your guess is as good as mine. One last thing I might try is `ipkg upgrade` on the snapshot of OM2007.2 I do not have a debug board.
