great :-)

I have one problem with rc4. Touchsreen stopped working:

root at om-gta04:~# cat /dev/input/event0 
[  739.782196] omap_i2c omap_i2c.2: controller timed out
[  739.813537] tsc2007 2-0048: i2c io error: -110


any hint?

And another big thank you for the great work you're doing (being burned
by the stuttering upstreaming works of Nokia for n900 we (SHR) really appreciate
that)
