</div>Well previous qtopia images targeted OM repos, but buildhost ones<br>
(2007.2). (it was indicated somewhere that first rootfs were made<br>
starting from a FSO one).<br>
Since opkg config has been modified to target<br>
<a href="http://download.openmoko.org/repository/testing/" target="_blank">download.openmoko.org/repository/testing/</a> , I thought that might<br>
indicate rootfs was at least aligned with OM one...<br>

Anyway, it would be good to know what rootfs is really made of.<br>
And we should be able to install qtextended on a OM rootfs (in fact I<br>
did on one partition of my phone).<br>

X should not interfere here, at least as far as OM qtopia X packages<br>
are not installed. And I think they are not in OM base testing image,<br>
and of course neither in Trolltech's image. So opkg upgrade should not<br>
be dangerous.<br>
On my partition were I started from a 2008.8 base testing image +<br>
qtextended (and, before, qtopia 4.3.2), I kept doing opkg<br>
update/upgrade with not much trouble.<br>
<br></blockquote><div>Did you install anything from there? How effective was upgrade? I did try checking if opkg update worked, but as the internet connection was faulty at that time, I couldn't get any results. <br>
