Thanks for the update, Radek and Paul! I'm downloading v58 now and looking forward to having a stable system.
By the way, I'm glad to see two big user interface bugaboos for me (vibration when resuming and hanging up when hitting "answer" twice) have been fixed. I think my only other bothersome bug is the way the Terminal interacts with the onscreen keyboard; almost always when switching applications the keyboard disappears and so does the button for showing the keyboard! I have to close the app and restart it to get a keyboard again. (Alternately, I can use one of the themes, like Finxi, that have a "toggle keyboard" icon builtin, but I prefer the look of Mokofaen.) —B On Thu, Dec 12, 2013 at 1:09 AM, Radek Polak <pson...@seznam.cz> wrote: > Hi, > > QtMoko v58 for Freerunner is now out!
