Ok I upgraded the kernel to the version in the Qtopia package...

uImage-2.6.24+git30+436204281bcd1fe5999ad6589ea7ab1b5360c352-r2-om-gta02.bin

And now I don't have USB networking anymore. I guess this is the same problem as reported for the 
other dists.

Is there a workaround (I updated using the script) other than reflashing and losing all my settings? 
and downloads etc.

Is the workaround the same as for the other dists (either load the kernel with all drivers, or 
upgrade everything).

Thanks
