Re: OPIE on Innovator 1510

[lamikr <lamikr@cc.jyu.fi>]

The problem is caused because unlike generic omap1510, the h6300 uses
tsc2101 chip for the sound and touschreen.
So if you want to use that image, you need propably build and install a
new omap1510 kernel for that image.

Then you need to make sure that /etc/modules contains the drivers you
need to use.
In addition for this, you need propably change also the tslib
configuration to be generic omap1510 specific.
See /etc/profile.d/tslib.sh...
