This problem of freezing of ubuntu during boot (while udev is fighting for acpi control, actually) can be cured very easy: turn off ACPI 2.0 in BIOS.

Please note that I've tested this XML patch only for russian hw keyboard.

FN-keys in cyanogen-mod are awful (especially on russian version kb) and no fix from xda-developers forum works!
So I've finished manually edited english layout file (FN-keyboard section) which you can download:
qwerty-en.xml
You should move it using root explorer to

/system/usr/keyboard-config/layouts/

then change owner to root (id=0) and group to root (id=0) and change permissions to RW-R--R-- and restart phone.

Don't forget to backup original file and, by the way! I'm not responsible for any side effect ;)

Update:
Added compatibility for mobile browsers which not always let user copy URL with "http://" prefix. Now prefix is added automatically if not exists.
-----end update---------------------

Fixed issue with storing of the long parameterized urls at my url shortener mad.gd.

By the way, mad.gd is easy to type on phone (2-abc, 3-def, ...) keypad.

Today I've made a fix for openttd game to close the depot window after building one :-) This is for being able to double click when build depot: build and "enter" it to build trains.
Patch is very simple. Add new line (release 1.0.4 src from www.openttd.org) rail_gui.cpp:147

DeleteWindowByClass(WC_BUILD_DEPOT); //close depot picker window after building one

BTW, seems that I remember cpp :-)
