think most of the sifus/linux users know this already, just to add some info if anyone dont know it yet.

two command in xterm/linux that is really useful.

1. ls - to list files in the directory. similar to dir in DOS. use this to check if your .deb is really in that folder before dpkg

2. up key in direction keypad - toggle latest command in command prompt similar to F3 in DOS. useful indeed.

well, you can copy paste codes from the sifus/fp but then i find typing things makes you remember commands and makes you a better user.

should be ls -l (as in lower case L)

anyone having luck installing the fdisk tool on N900 ?

sfdisk interface is....  rclxub.gif  rclxub.gif

CODE
mkdir -p /home/user/util-linux /home/us
wget http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/u/util-linux/util-linux_2.13.1.1-1_armel.deb
dpkg-deb -x util-linux_2.13.1.1-1_armel.deb root
cp root/sbin/fdisk /home/user/bin/
cd ..
rm -rf util-linux


note that the cd .., there's a space between "cd" and ".."

also, AFAIK, if u want to partition the microSD or eMMC, you have to do it via CLI...no GUI..unless you do it via GParted..

just wanted to recommend bluemaemo apps as i didnt see it on the list of recommended apps.
downloaded it from extras-devel.

what it does : acts as a mouse and keyboard ( among others ) to your pc, perfect for those who uses extra pc as their media centre.

works well on win7 32 bit, havent tested it on other OSes.
------------------------edit --------------------------------------------------------------

and thanks for the 1st page of this v9. it is freaking resourceful. thanks a lot.

and a question about "(1) (Howto) use MSN, AIM, ICQ, Yahoo Messenger etc on the Nokia N900 "

i followed what the video guides me through, but when i checked my yahoo messenger status, it always appear as "not signed in".
what did i do wrong? or a much better question, what exactly the plugin does? is it the same as the skype one comes preinstalled ( always appear online )? thanks in advance

try to put the username without the alias..eg : username = abc

or you could try installing Pidgin extra protocol.

a weird thing just happened,i was browsing the net and the battery percentage is 80 percent...after half an hour it went to 6x percent...i disconnect the internet connection and leave the phone w/o touching it for 20 mins and suddenly the battery percentage showed 0 percent and the battery icon on the status bar went red...might it be my battery had spoiled? i've been experiencing this for a few times already

after disconnecting the wifi, leave the phone for about 5 minutes, then check htop and look at the process which is taking the most CPU usage..see if you can reproduce the problem again..

seems like a very good news to me regarding the neopwn injection drivers..the developer (no, not neopwn), is going to release the standalone injection drivers soon..

here's the guide

http://wiki.nitdroid.com/index.php?title=N900-Autoinstaller

but, if u want to partition the emmc (32GB), i'd suggest u do it using GParted..u will need to have linux machine (ubuntu/linuxmint/fedora) installed on your PC..or, you can do it the easy way,

boot from GParted live cd..

here's the tutorial..
http://www.networkedmediatank.com/showthread.php?tid=26629

i formatted my microSD using GParted live CD..i have yet to partition the eMMC internal memory..still waiting for uboot to be stable..i prefer to avoid multiboot though..

reflash with the current firmware..look at the first page of the thread...

be sure to download the global version of PR1.3..(latest maemo 5 version) and latest VANILLA image...then just follow the guide on FP..

read my thread in tmo, under N900, i did ask for proper documentation for uboot, but the maintaner of uboot told that currently uboot is only configurable for dual boot btween maemo and meego..

but it doesnt mean that uboot cannot be configured for other kernel/os, it can..but u have to do it via hard way..and i mean really hard..

SEA, try experimenting with the tutorial i gave u about configuring uboot in pm..i know it wasnt so clear..but, that's the best i can help..i have yet to try it myself..as i am currently very bz.. sorry though..

last time i tried, it wasnt successful..

here's an advice..if letsay u often boot into other kernel such as power46,nitdroid, or meego..i'd suggest u use uboot..its hard..i knew that..i tried..

but if u dont boot into other kernel that often, u r better off with multiboot..like for example, booting into nitdroid once in 2 or 3 days..or other power kernel, so yeah..multiboot makes ur life easier..

unless u boot into nitdroid or other kernel twice a day, then i strongly advise u to try and configure until u manage to boot using uboot..

as u know, using multiboot too often will damage the NAND flash..unlike multiboot, uboot doesnt flash into other kernel/os, but rather, it LOADS the kernel/os from the specific path that u need to configure yourself...so it involves a lot of work and trial&error..

hi..pls check your system system setting for
1. internet connections - make sure you choose "always ask" for "connect automatically setting"
2. Location - disable both GPS and Network Positioning
3. Always use 2G network instead of 3G when not using any data service

QUOTE(super_evil_alien @ Dec 6 2010, 11:23 PM)
I'm using 3GB for NITDroid & leaving 4GB blank for MeeGo.
GParted should be the easier method because of the GUI support.I'll ask one1002 on how to use it properly(I'm old school fdisk loving guy)

I may no longer using my class10 microSD for OS loading but I have no regret buying it.
I'm using it to store songs & video files now.As I prove with the benchmark screenshot,this is card is very fast & more suitable for file storing purpose.

meLi is using ubuntu running LXDE..yes it's smooth..however, you cannot view your files in Maemo if u are running those distros..eg: if u want to listen to mp3 in ubuntu, you will need to copy the mp3 from maemo, and paste it inside the ubuntu folder so that ubuntu can read it..

atm, ubuntu cannot read/view/execute files on maemo..
