While it's quite possible the hardware may well support more than 2 points of multitouch I'm afraid the drivers only support 2. It may be something that we can look into at a later date. Not that I ever use more than 2 really

No worries! You guys are doing great work. This was just a minor curiosity. The only thing I'd really like it for is a piano app (tough they're are some games/visualizers that are cool with more touch points). First things first!

It may have been asked already and I didn't see it, but I presume with this being built from the cm source, it is based on what would be the newest nightly?

sorry if this is a noob question but once we flash this cm7 ROM, will we be able to have access to the nooks entire memory for whatever we may want to use it for?

EDIT: thanks Celtic, you da Mannnn!

We're working on mounting the memory as you speak

If you are taking suggestions, one thing I would like to see is the ability to undervolt / overclock. I have a touchpad running CM9 as well, and it gets way better battery life than the nook tablet.

show-p1984 created a custom kernel for cm9 on the touchpad that lets you undervolt and overclock the processor. As a bonus, it can idle one cpu until it is needed....

So far from what I can see, the sod is a kernel panic from brightness. I'm trying to work on it but haven't been home all day. :|

I imagine the screen off SOD and the brightness control not working are related. When you turn off the screen, it usually doesn't simply turn off, but it quickly turns down brightness before turning off the screen. There may be a way to disable the screen dim "animation" while the screen turns off.

I also came across this information that worked for the Touchpad. Might be worth taking a look at:

Good input. We currently can push any clock speed we want but have not overclocked the kernel out of the gate. That will come at some point during Alpha (which should start soon).

As of right now we have the CPUs running frequency managers and are able to hot-mount processors (turn them on and off as needed to save juice). We will leave the battery life testing to all of you and tweak from there

Danrarbc · Feb 3, 2012

If the brightness control has a /dev entry or something have you tried just creating a null device? That might work around it in the short term while we try to find the real solution.

Indirect · Feb 3, 2012

Alright, I'm finally awake and prepared to start tinkering.

I'll see if I can figure out this little issue with the SoD. Gonce, do you have the files with working wifi?

Mephikun · Feb 3, 2012

Here's his Wi-Fi thread if it helps.

For pretty much all of the last 24 hours Goncezilla and I have been buried in getting this rom to work. Well all our recent long days and night of endless hours have finally paid Off.

It's our pleasure to inform everyone that we have fixed everything in the original thread and now been sorted and we have now have what seems to be a stable and fully functional CM7 build for the Nook tablet.

We're going to do a little bit more testing for a bit then we'll put together a release

Goncezilla and I would like to say thank you to everybody that offered support and advice. Even if we didn't use your advice it was still very much appreciated that you offered it!

Watch this space!

How did you solve the SoD?

Indirect · Feb 3, 2012

Send me over the files through PM celtic, I need to check a few things out.

Lol you just got thanked for asking the question because in a rush I clicked wrong button.

We'll be doing a write up explaining everything that was fixed and how it was done so everyone can see

Just busy working on a few minor things at the mo.

Yep we fixed SoD, mic, screen brightness, mounting of partitions. You name it. We might go straight to beta.

Anyway we have some work todo, write-ups on what we have, how we did it and how you can get the beta. Also have to build all the packages. Should have something up soon so keep checking in!

Yes we're building things up but please remember we're tetsing as we go so it may take some time
