HI,

that is cool for you. I too have gcc, bash vim and the other goodies,
but then also X11 and most ot the GNUstep environment running.

Now I also got a 2GB SD card which works fine, since I was running out
of disk space. Unfortunately fat32 is not the best FS to compile on.

I hope we soon get a newer kernel and a basic toolchain, X11 and
libraries to work on. The 2.4 kernel for example is unsuitable for
typing. The keyboard inserts random characters. This is incovenient
both for note taking as well as for small programming.
I also hope some performance improvment.

Riccardo
