Hi all,

thank you for your replies.
Currently the new console image is working. The images with x start but there 
is no keyboard or mouse.
Well I plan to get some things running this or next weekend:

1) x working
	I need this because I use minicom to test the CF modem (to get this running 
is actually my primary goal, tosa has no crtl key, so I need the virtual 
keyboard for minicom).
2) CF modem, serial_cs and what's blocking it.
3) concentrate on one window manager that is not matchbox
	This is why I would love to hearing from you what you prefer. I think about 
fluxbox. It is fast, lightweight and there is already a recipe.
An alternative would be openbox, I think pdaxrom looks quite nice... But it 
would take me some time to do.
Please let me know what you think or suggest another one.  But not 
enlightenment. I tested it and it is simply to slow on tosa.
 4) GUI: I think, I will keep gpe at the moment.
	Implementation is complete, so it doesn't take me much time.
5) I think about focussing on two images:
console + altboot
and one with the gui and modem stuff to be installed on an sd card and booted 
via altboot.
