Hi again,

Thanks a lot for all your patience with me :)

>  you need maemo 1.1, and preferably the latest 0.9.8 series Scratchbo
I use maemo-1.0 image with gcc-3.3.4 and scratchbox-0.9.8.5; however
setup is as problematic as always. I was never able to get something
done as described in teh FAQs, I always had to use custom hacks and
tricks on my FC4 boxes - very frustrating!

Ahh, that could be the reason - I used gcc-3.3.4 :-/

> This piece of documentation describes the necessary setup and recompilation procedure.
Yes of course I did, but this howto doesn't work as all other manuals
don't work.
It start with the install script which does not work, then I had to
change permissions of one file in scratchbox - otherwise my user would
not have the possibility to log in (although i ran run-me-first.sh)
and so on and so on...
I ended up downloading the kernel-source package by hand and loading
the n770defconf by "make menuconfig" which worked fine :)

Thanks again, lg Clemens
