Comment(by h.koenig):

 I have the same problem (no pin dialog, no gsm) using an irish prepaid
 card from vodafone which worked fine so far with all other OM
 kernels/stacks.

 from #1763 I learned that gsm relates to "qpe". now I see the following in
 "ps uaxwwww" output after reboot in ssh session:

 /app-restarter The qpe process vanished. This is bad.?This is not meant to
 happen and is likely a sign of?a bug in Qtopia. Please try to reproduce it
 and?report the issue to http://docs.openmoko.org.??To be able to use your
 phone as a phone again you?will have to restart Qtopia.? qpe

 note that qpe is still running, but in hangs in select():

 fd 7 is a socket (how can I find out what's connected to this socket?)

 root at om-gta02:~# ls -l  /proc/1554/fd/7
 lrwx------    1 root     root           64 Aug  9 08:43 /proc/1554/fd/7 ->
 socket:[3469]



 if I kill qpe I get that restart dialog (no surprise;).

 when I start qpe in an ssh without setting DISPLAY, I get the keyboard
 window on my notebook on the very top of the screen and a 2nd black window
 at the bottom which only shows "bacK" at the right.  I can toggle the
 keyboard layers to numeric, but I don't see any input and pressing RETURN
 doesn't seem to matter.

 when I start qpe with  "DISPLAY=:0 qpe" I _do_not_ get the keyboard on the
 FR !!  I only see very short display distortions in the lower part of the
 screen (likely the keyboard showing up and disappearing immediately ?!)



 can this be "just" a problem with X11 rendering of the keyboard/pin dialog
 ?
