NO, we don't.

Canola doesn't change anything except:
 - starts avahi
 - starts canola-conf
 - uses dbus
 - install gconf schemas for /apps/canola/ and /apps/canola-conf/

I can't tell you for sure. Could you check output from "dmesg"? If it
shows something weird, you better check that.

You can turn off swap with:

    swapoff /media/mmc1/.swap

I would do that, since scirocco is really good IMHO.

But please help us find the reason to this problem first, if you
re-flash we won't be able to find a possible bug somewhere in canola
or maemo :-/

the streets! :-)
