The OpenEZX project tries to gather information about the Linux-based
Motorola EZX phone platform (mainly the A780, E680 and E680i phones).
It further tries to provide a 100% free software stack for those phones,
especially a way to avoid any proprietary filesystem and/or device drivers. It
also aims to provide a current (2.6.x) kernel with all required hardware
support for the EZX phones.
The project is currently in a very early stage, so none of the abovementioned
goals have yet been achieved. Progress is going on quickly, stay tuned.
The OpenEZX project is not affiliated in any way with Motorola.
The OpenEZX team is pleased to announce the 0.2.0 release
of boot_usb.
It gained support for transfering an initrd, setting the cmdline and setting the
machine ID. RAZR2 V8 detection support was also added.
A910 donation for hacking
Today I recieved an A910.
Peter Malte Mack was kind enough to send us one. A big thank you from the
OpenEZX team for this.
The most interesting about this device is the fact that ist is the only EZX with
a wifi chip build in. We still need to find out which chip and if we can perhaps
support it, but atleast we have the hardware now to do this.
Bleeding Edge Images for EZX devices
For a long time already the Angstrom distribution builds
kernels and images for our EZX devices. We like to say thank you for this
service.
If people like to try out some bleeding edge images they should give the
autobuild
images a try.
Based on this images we also like to provide a well tested snapshot at some
point in the future. (Promissed schedules always fail, so no date. :))
