I'd just like to add in that while it's great (really, I mean it), you're reporting problems, if you can reproduce them in vanilla OE with something like MACHINE=qemuarm and DISTRO=angstrom-2008.1 (or DISTRO=minimal) or similar, that will help rule out a lot of concern on our part and give a testcase we can all easily try out. -- Tom Rini Mentor Graphics Corporation
