Hello,

I installed qtmoko-v53 afresh on a new shiny microSDcard.
Thanks for all the hard work, folks!

I wanted to use wlan, I had difficulties so far with that. This
is what I found:

1.
After turning on logging, studying the scripts in /opt/qtmoko/bin
and reading /tmp/qtopia-network.log a bit, it turned out, that
"Internet" partly aka /opt/qtmoko/bin/lan-network.sh is expecting
Information in $HOME/Settings/Network.

However,
$HOME == /root
whereas the wanted files reside in
/home/root/Settings/...

A symbolic link
/root/Settings -> /home/root/Settings
cured it for now. I could connect to my access point, which had not
worked before. :-)

Bug or feature?
Where is the right place to fix this?


2.
I suspect that wireless is powered on by default.
rfkill list does not say, anything "blocked". This is
*before*  I started with the action under point 1.
Power consumption during suspend is 20mA and I had seen
14 mA some time ago.

Can someone please comment on this? Thanks.


Cheers,
Erich
