Well, I finally figured out why none of the kernels (previously compiled and by myself) worked; I'm using Debian on the NanoNote. I found a patch file after scouring the net for solutions, but i'm not knowledgable to covert it to use a current kernel source tree.
<ignatius_>
So... anyone know where I can get kernel source that would work for me?
<larsc>
hm, this is what gcc generates for lm32 vfork. http://pastebin.com/Jn8rAXVK is there a way to force it to save ra and r11 on the stack after scall has been executed?
<wpwrak>
ignatius_: maybe you need to ask on the mailing list. there are only very few people who use debian on the nanonote
<wpwrak>
viric: you'll find tables in u-boot, the kernel, your GUI toolkit (or X), etc.
<viric>
ah ok
<kristian1aul>
okay, problem tracked, there is a problem with CCÂ Â briged at the wb_ack_o signal
<kristian1aul>
wich seems not to reach the wishbone master ever, geting it ina frozen state...

<kristianpaul>
17:47 < kristianpaul> a SIE-like board with a 4760 SoC?
<kristianpaul>
17:47 < kristianpaul> no fpga, for at least let enought IO for expasion
<kristianpaul>
17:48 < kristianpaul> s/for/but
<kristianpaul>
17:48 < kristianpaul> easy to fit to wolfgang previous idea about 640x480 LCM with resistive touch interface
<wpwrak>
kristianpaul: the next "arduino killer" ? :)
<kristianpaul>
wpwrak: dunno, also dont find directly relation with
<kristianpaul>
for me, ther are some boards called papilo wich implement arduino in fpga
<kristianpaul>
agaik,not kicad design but floss i think
<kristianpaul>
if you ask me for an arduino killer, my opinion is that
<wpwrak>
hmm, an FPGA is an expensive way to kill the arduino
<kristianpaul>
or cheap ARM socs eventually will
<kristianpaul>
you can kill arduino, but not 8 bits MCU's :)
<kristianpaul>
anyway, i just was thinking _mainly_ that droping keyboard from the same PCB, may lead to less layer board
<kristianpaul>
USB way to go :-)
<wpwrak>
the keyboard consumes one layer, yes
<kristianpaul>
and i wonder if the other extra layers is just becase the mess to route stuff because the keyboard been top layer
<wpwrak>
but a USB keyboard for a portable device ? i mean, in the days of the Osborne 1, this would have been quite okay, but today ... ? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osborne_1
<kristianpaul>
hey, Osborne 1 is a kinda big..
<kristianpaul>
keyboards are small and handy, but still the issue that stand it easilly...
<kristianpaul>
as is not integrate in the same case, as i undertood..
<kristianpaul>
today we have portable tablet-like devices and keyboars like a desktop addon
<kristianpaul>
but yeah, still a bit messy for something not in desktop
<kristianpaul>
s/in desktop/stand
<wpwrak>
also, do you really want to make something that will be compared to things like he iPad ?
<kristianpaul>
he...
<kristianpaul>
may be something like the kindle? if the usb keyboard is integrated in same case some how...
<kristianpaul>
or not usb keyboard? ISP. I2C? well i'm not aware of sourcing of think kind of stuff..
<wpwrak>
just gets more difficult. well, you can always make your own
<kristianpaul>
and just get more diffcult :-)
<kristianpaul>
but do you agree at least of separate keyboard from cpu pcb?
<wpwrak>
i think it's easier to have them all together, like in the ben
<kristianpaul>
ok
<kristianpaul>
but same clamshell style?
<wpwrak>
i would go for this, yes
<wpwrak>
protects the display, too
<kristianpaul>
hum,good point
<wpwrak>
mechanically, the hinge is a bit of a challenge, though
