Re: How to gain root privileges on N9?
Thanks. I don't yet have a good understanding of Aegis, but it appears to me that any privileges users have can be taken away at any time, by Nokia.

Re: N9 16/64GB: worldwide availability & pricing
You are correct. Unfortunately, regardless of how we see it, those in charge at Nokia do not consider the N9 to be their flagship. It's more of a ghost ship.
Who wants to buy a Flying Dutchphone?...

Re: The End is Coming: What do we do next?
I've had some experience with an Android tablet and phone, and in both cases my response to the capacitive screen is, "people actually want this?"
But I've found that the Android VNC client offers...

Script to kill runaway hildon-home processes
First of all, I do not actually recommend that anyone use this. It hasn't made my phone blow up yet, but I have had to pull the battery on one occasion. For all I know, it might harm yours.

Re: [Announce] Opera Mobile 11
As a longtime Opera user on the desktop (since at least 1997), I am very happy with Opera Mobile 11 for Maemo.
The previous version did not quite work for, but I think this one will become my...

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

Re: What's your Maemo device's killer app?
I've got to admit, I'm very puzzled by this. It's not really a matter of choosing between the complex equation or the simple one, is it? If the single, somewhat complex equation
p = m*a/(pi*r^2)

Re: How can N900 sync time? GPS, NTP, and/or GSM?
Just in case anyone is still seeking a solution, there is now a compatible version of openntpd in Extras. Installs cleanly and is configured to run at startup, so the old workarounds are no longer...

Re: Any of you guys run with your N900?
What do you do to protect the N900 from sweat while running? I've been putting mine inside a ziplock bag, and then the bagged phone inside a slightly larger ziplock bag.

Re: KOffice and rtf format
Can't help with KOffice, but one possibility might be an editor called Tea, which is available through Easy Debian.
It can read rtf documents, but cannot write them. It only saves plain text.
