[Gta04-owner] Second trial with QtMoko2

[Sven Dyroff]

Hello Nikolaus,

over the easter holidays I found the screenshot function of QtMoko again. 
I just had forgotten that it exists. It's under "Applications" / 
"Screenshot" and works fine by using time delay.

Attached you'll find a picture that a) proves that it works and b) shows 
that camera does not work for unknown reason...

Why is this the case? I thought camera should work with current Linux 
kernels, or am I wrong?

Furthermore I found that under "Settings" / "Startup Flags" there's an 
option "Modem" / "Use Dummy Modem Device". But unfortunately activating 
this seem to doesn't effectuate anything. But meanwhile I was able to 
solve the problem with acting as SJ by having found an old and expired SIM 
in my cupboard. It's not able to connect to any network anymore, but 
having this inside the GTA04A5 I'm at least able to enter a valid PIN.

I also found that obviously under "Settings" / "Security" you're able to 
deactivate asking for PIN, but this is something that I don't want to try 
out because I don't want to find out if this will also deactivate asking 
for PIN in case that I put a valid SIM into the phone.

So in the end there remained two more new questions in addition to the 
older ones:

a) How is it possible to get the camera working?

b) Testing makes only sense in case that there're are any developers 
outside who are able and willing to correct found errors / problems. So 
are there any Qt 4.8 developers outside for QtMoko or do we have "only" 
Linux kernel developers? Or in other words: What should be tested and what 
doesn't need to be?

Best regards
   Sven
