hmm, strange thing. This is exactly what we intend to do... retry to access 
FSO until it appears on the scene... and then list the resources and register 
GSM if it is there... if not, wait for the signal that the GSM resource 
appeared.

ouch - nothing :P don't remember if that part of the conf came from ophonekitd 
and I forgot to adjust the comment or if I was still used to the old name when 
writing that comment. Should read phonefsod.

reregister kicks in when you are without network coverage. Either on start or 
afterwards. It determines the seconds how often to schedule a try to register 
to the network. This is needed, because we don't get notified if some usable 
network (re-)appears.

Disabling it lets the default kick in, which is aux,lock. Try if setting it to 
an empty string works. Should.

suspend to mem the complete device. Not refering to a specific resource. It is 
using FSO for that (org.freesmartphone.Usage.Suspend). Normal does _not_ 
suspend the device while the battery is getting charged. Always does suspend 
it even then.

in addition to the ophonekitd bugs there was also a bug in frameworkd
regarding the release of the display resource. All that should be fixed
now and hit you with opkg update & upgrade

this sets the resource policy and is not what you should do.
org.freesmartphone.Usage.RequestResource is what you should use. And
because that requires to keep the program running that requested a
resource there is

> org.shr.ophonekitd.Usage /org/shr/ophonekitd/Usage
> org.shr.ophonekitd.Usage.RequestResource Display
which requests the resource until you release it. That way you can wrap
for example tangogps between a call to request display and a call to
release display...

current frameworkd has a rule to poweroff when the battery is empty...
Try to disable it in /etc/freesmartphone/oevents/rules.yaml... it is:

-
trigger: PowerStatus()
 filters: HasAttr(status, "empty")
 actions: Command('poweroff')

just comment those four lines out and reboot. Thats just my guess
though... not sure about it.

on shr-testing the new kernel won't work anyway. The included version of
frameworkd is missing the necessary changes...

For the new kernel you have to use shr-unstable right now. This will
changes with the next testing image... which will be due, when we have
sorted out one or two problems of the current unstable image.

This is not yet in any SHR image... that needs a more current FSO. We
are building a new unstable image right now that will include that. If
everything works out it should be there by tomorrow.

IIRC setting also idle_prelock = 0 did the trick for me

lucky you - I get WSoD when suspended/blanked for more than 1 minute ;)
And this from the beginning when I got my freerunner in august. I
immediately reflashed it, so I don't know, if the original 2007 stack
would have shown the WSoD also...

I just tried the "warm" theory and put my freerunner sleeping on a warm
and cosy place - resumed after 5 minutes and got a nice WSoD.

Never dropped it.
