i'm running SHR-U, and i'd noticed someting similar, and done a little 
digging, and it seems to be FSO-related.  i summarised my problem and the 
digging i'd done on the FSO list last month, see 
http://lists.linuxtogo.org/pipermail/smartphones-userland/2009-November/002201.html 
, but i got no replies.

i'm not sure what to do about it.  possibly having more people log their 
experiences in the FSO tracker at 
http://trac.freesmartphone.org/ticket/474 would help.  once i get home 
after Christmas, and can bring up GPRS without paying humungous US roaming 
charges, i'll try to do that.

it's not fatal, but it's the last big thing in between me and a 
fully-functional 'moko.  it'd be nice to get it resolved.
