Re: Stskeeps says bye! o/

It's one guy's opinion, but you're exactly the kind of person the world needs if free and open technology is to remain a realistic, sustainable possibility. My deepest appreciation for everything...

Re: N900 - Sold out on Amazon ($349 price point)

I think you can probably safely hang on to it with the expectation of getting your money back at some point, just keep it cosmetically clean and in good working order. I plan on keeping mine until...

Re: Easy Debian Fremantle Beta Testing

Using nice on an apt-get install of gnumeric worked this time. I will rsync the image again and try inkscape.

Re: Google Nexus One, The Phone I Should Have Bought From The Very Start.

Yes. You get a choice of mobile or desktop mode, and in desktop you can create/edit to your heart's content.

Ithink GD's primarily intended for something other than document viewing. If that's...

Re: Some questions about EASY DEBIAN

There's a long but well-attended Easy Debian Fremantle thread, you might have better luck over there. The maintainer's there almost every day.

Re: Dear Mods...

You lack imagination. Are you new to these devices? I have a 7-year-old Sharp Zaurus that I can get a fresh kernel on any time I want it.

And with all due respect, I haven't seen anything on...

Re: Easy Debian Fremantle Beta Testing

Re: Easy Debian Fremantle Beta Testing

I used the US PR1.2 and the Flasher, and blew away the deb image in MyDocs and reinstalled from the App Manager (did not touch the EMMC). Works fine. OO.o seems a little faster (15-20%), actually,...

Re: Official: No (commercial) MeeGo for the N900

I have no doubt that there will be a perfectly usable version of MeeGo for the N900. And community-supported may be better than Nokia-supported after all.

Re: Easy Debian Fremantle Beta Testing

I think you have to enable squeeze repositories, get Abiword from those, and then roll back to lenny. I got the same blank screen as you, so you're not crazy.
