Bedside Alarm Clock

I have been trying to use my n900 as a bedside alarm clock, and wanted to have a clock displayed all night. There seems to be a couple of options I've found, but none are quite right.

Bedside,...

Re: [Announcement] Fundraiser for "Maemo" Trademark registration

That isn't quite true. Atari for instance, is a currently owned trademark, and that company *did* go after several sites and other IP that they own and ask them to be shutdown or renamed.

Re: Kali Linux 1.1.0a armhf for Nokia N900 (working WiFi injection)

It's possible to run Kali from chroot like the Easy Debian setup, and you should have access to all the underlying hardware in this way. It will be slower of course, and there are a few other small...

Re: [$ Paid request] Porting Love2D to maemo

Re: [RFC] On the roles of Maemo Council and Maemo e.V.

Yes, I understand that is probably the most likely scenario.

Re: Tor Status Area Applet

It does this for me too. On the latest thumb CSSU. I stopped using it and restored an old version of my status applet config file.

Probably this app should be considered broken I guess.

Re: [RFC] On the roles of Maemo Council and Maemo e.V.

You can also have the MCev board delegate these tasks to anyone else (assuming that it is not a task that needs to be done by a director by law). It could very well work this way:

Re: [Announce] TrueCrypt available in extras-testing [+transparently MASS-STORAGE'ing encrypted volumes for desktops]

Or it could be exactly what the developers said: they were getting bored with it, and with encryption freely available on Windows and Linux, they saw no great need for their software anymore.

Re: [RFC] On the roles of Maemo Council and Maemo e.V.

Just one point, the E.V. is not a corporation, it's an "association". Think of a hobby club where the membership elects people to run the club.

In a corporation the employees can't tell the BoD...

Re: Shellshock? Maemo?

Probably the only exploit vector you would worry about would be DHCP. The other vectors are unlikely to affect your n900, such as cgi scripts, restricted ssh shells, etc...
