The qpe process vanished. (bootind 2008.8)

[Yorick]

I installed 2008.8 to my SD card and now i get this error (at the stage where the two boots appears):

"The qpe process vanished. This is bad. This is not mean and is likely a sign of a bug in Qtopia. Please try to reproduce it and report this problem...."

Then I can "F1" for restart or "F2" for exit...
I cannot press any button, but I can ssh into the phone.

I installed the rootfs and the kernel from ​http://downloads.openmoko.org/releases/Om2008.8/

Mmaybe something went wrong when converting it to a tar.gz file to populate the sd card? It would be usefull if there was a tar.gz file already available.

If you need more info about my device (gta02v5), kernel, rootfs or u-boot, please ask and tell me what you want me to provide (the commands to obtain the info would also be usefull :))
