 Hi all,
 Yesterday evening I finally had time to check my FreeRunner and its Debug
 Board.

 First of all I opened the Freerunner and made all the requested connection
 between the openmoko and the debug board (the cable and the USB
 connector), next I connected the debug board to my PC.

 Reading http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Debug_board
 I see that my USB ID 0403:6010 request I need to reflash the debug board.

 So I started my tries with linux.
 Downloaded libftdi -> applied patch from
 http://people.openmoko.org/werner/libftdi-c56-strings-dirty-hack.patch
 Hunk 1 failed ... done manual patching
 Hunk 2 Succeed with Fuzz 1
 Rechecked ftdi.c, it seems ok.

 Compiled and installed OK

 Downloaded ftdi_eeprom -> applied patch from
 http://people.openmoko.org/laforge/misc/debug_board_v2/ftdi_eeprom/ftdi_eeprom-0.2-moko.patch
 Succeed

 Now let's try to patch
 # ftdi_eeprom --flash-eeprom ftdi_eeprom/neo1973_debug_board_v2.ftdi

 Error: No device with vendor id 1457:5118

 Ok let's see
 tried to substitute vendor id and product id inside the .ftdi, but
 Cannot Flash

 Let's try with Windows
 Downloaded MProg3.0
 Downloaded
 http://people.openmoko.org/laforge/misc/debug_board_v2/mprog_template/neo1973_debugboard_v2.ept

 Started MProg3.0
 Applied "Scan for Available Devices"
 Results:
 Number Of Blank Devices = 0
 Number Of Programmed Devices = 0


 Simply I see the device connected, but I'm unable to apply the correct
 firmware.
