== jffs image ==
Mounting the jffs file as described did not work for me.  Instead I did the following:

 mknod /dev/mtdblock0 b 31 0 

 losetup /dev/loop0 <rootfs.jffs2 file> 

 echo "/dev/loop0" > /sys/module/block2mtd/parameters/block2mtd 

 mount -t jffs2 /dev/mtdblock0 <mountpoint> 

This seemed to work out alright.

== Feedback ==
I had pretty good luck with the procedure on the Qtopia on FreeRunner page using KnoppMyth 5.5 for my linux. Had to su but few problems. The only part I didn't figure out was the -C switch in the tar command. Failed every time. Worked around it.

== uImage path ==
A problem I had was with "Installing Kernel" instructions : instead of putting uImage.bin on the first partition in /boot folder, I had to put it directly in / (without that I couldn't boot). If someone else can reproduce the problem, I will edit the article. -Xavier_OM

:Same here I have to put uImage directly to / (not to /boot) -PipBoy2000

:Same here too. Should I change it on the page? --[[User:Nowic|Nowic]] 16:24, 7 August 2008 (UTC)


== Partitioning & u-boot ==
How are you all (who have successfully booted to SD) partitioning your cards?

Also, what (if any) changes did you make to u-boot environment?  
I was unable to make any of my changes stick, so I couldn't add support for ext3.

== Bugtracker ==
Where should I report Qtopia related bugs? To [http://docs.openmoko.org/ docs.openmoko.org] too? --[[User:Nowic|Nowic]] 17:02, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
:My understanding is that they should be reported to Trolltech. I'll add the tracker address and information to the page now. --[[User:JohnSullivan|JohnSullivan]] 16:46, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

== Suspend/Resume bug ==

I just tested with 4.3.3, booting on battery power, and the phone suspends and resumes just fine. Is this still reproducible now? I suggest removing it from the page. --[[User:JohnSullivan|JohnSullivan]] 16:47, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

== Browser? ==
in "Current Status" stands, that their is now browser...but in "What is in the latest release (Qtopia 4.4)? " there stands that a webkit browser is on the image...what is correct?

:The Qt Extended 4.4.2 image does contain a webkit based browser. It works just fine, although i would like to see a zooming in/out feature :-)

==TangoGPS==
Is tangogps supposed to work with qtextended? wasn't it a gtk-app, was it?

:tangoGPS will not work with QtExtended 4.4.2 image, at least there are package dependency problems

:TangoGPS depends upon libx11, therefore tangoGPS is unusable without an Xserver (Xserver might be Xfbdev, but QtExtended directly uses the framebuffer), so no luck for tangoGPS on QtExtended :-(
:QtExtended comes with an "Mapping Demo" application

----

Is the "Mapping demo" application comparable to [[TangoGPS]] and/or [[Navit]] ?--[[User:Apertum|Apertum]] 13:48, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
