To be precise, Angstrom does support the FreeRunner, but only if you are
running the Angstrom distribution on the FreeRunner.

My comments assume you are running one of the Openmoko distributions
(2007.x, 2008.x, FSO, SHR, FDOM, etc) on the FreeRunner.

If you are in fact running the Angstrom distribution, and the angstrom
feed no longer works for that distribution, then you should report the
error in the OpenEmbedded bug tracker.  But *only* do so if you are sure
that you are running the *Angstrom* distribution, not an
Openmoko-derived distribution.
