I was trying to build the fingerprint version of CM 7 for the Atrix on my own, and I was wondering if anyone could tell me what I was doing wrong.
1. I downloaded the CM source and managed to successfully build the non-fingerprint version.
2. I downloaded the android/device/motorola/olympus directory for the fingerprint build from the Atrix Development Team's Github.
(https://github.com/A...lympus/branches)
3. I merged the downloaded code into my own working directory
($CyanogenmodHome/device/motorola/olympus)
4. Ran the build commands (source ./build/envsetup.sh && bruch olympus) and nothing happened.
Does anyone have suggestions or recommendations?
[For the record this project is purely academic interest and practically speaking completely unnecessary.
The Atrix Development Team's weekly build of 10 December is one of the most stable pieces of software I've seen.

Still, I can't help be curious on how the build process works ....]

Why are you trying to build the fingerprint app? They already have it included in the weekly build from Dec 10th. It is stable and works just fine. Waiting for CM9 next!

His post states that he knows this and is purely looking to learn about the building methods. As to OP's question, I believe people on XDA are also building cm7 for the fun of it, so you may want to look there.

Problem solved, and you were right Servili007. I did find the answer on XDA.
My problem was that I didn't know how github worked. There were some additional files in the android_packages_apps_Settings tree. If you are using your browser to search through the source tree, you don't see the additional files unless you manually change the branch.
So I was wrong. The Atrix Development Team did leave everything you need out in the public repositories .... you just need to be smart enough to find it!
