You need to enable 500mA or 1A quick charge, as noted by the poster above me. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

USB from my laptop is still 100ma instead of the 500ma it has been previously. My thinking is usb charging is broken and not fixed by the depmod todays kernel needs before networking will work.

Hi, * Andy Green [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2008-08-01 08:37 +0200]: | Now when I plug it into usb, I get | | cat /sys/class/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-0073/chgmode gives play-only | | and | | cat /sys/class/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-0073/charger_type gives host/500mA | usb mode 100mA I've almost the same problem, but charger_type says: charger 1A mode 500mA (The charger is a USB host...) I think I finally understood where this issue is really coming from. Did you update your U-Boot in the last couple of weeks? In my case, yes.
