Re: Fixing USB port, before and after it is to late. (All info in one Thread) (See POST #1)

I can't trust my soldering skills anymore even though I used to do a lot of it when i had younger eyes and hands. These guys put a new port in for 15 quid plus postage costs. Turn around was 4 days....

Re: n900 error -110 whilst initialising SD card - isn't back cover issue

Error -110 is a timeout.

If the card works perfectly everywhere else, but fails on N900, I suspect hardware failure. Considering how damaged your N900 is, you may want to try cooking it in roaster...

Re: n900 error -110 whilst initialising SD card - isn't back cover issue

It seems you have diagnosed there maybe a hardware issue.

Has the card slot or any connections to it been removed or damaged.

Maybe the key is to find out what a 110 error is?

Re: [Announce] CSSU stable release

It can also mean that you don't have enough space for the update. It is usually rootfs that runs out of space first. Flashing will definitely help but might be a bit of an overkill, try clearing up...

Re: [Announce] CSSU stable release

PC Suite is a generic message to say the device cannot update.

Try to refresh HAM to see if it solves the issue first.
Failing that check you haven't removed/disabled any repositories...

Re: Arch Linux ARM on N900

I think the mirror that had all the packages went down some time ago. It's all somewhat outdated by now and I'm not sure if voice calling works with upstream kernel yet.

Anyway, I can probably put...

Re: Arch Linux ARM on N900

Sorry, that domain was user contributed. I'm not sure if/when I have time to get into this again.

Not sure those old packages in repo had anything worth saving, if you disagree let me know and we...

Re: Lilypond for n900?

Would love to have lilypond on N900 -- but building it from source on the device proved to be beyond my skill as well. Even when it did build with the correct confluence of guile, tex, and lilypond...

Re: Lilypond for n900?

Well, I 'installed' lilypond on N900. It segfaults. No surprise, I 'installed' lilypond and lilypond-data from Debian-Lenny, ignoring that libc6 on Maemo-5-Fremantle is out-of-date, and disregarding...

Re: Lilypond for n900?

That's too bad. It looks like some folks around here managed to install LaTeX, but some things also seemed to be problematic. The mere fact you can install LaTeX in a handheld computer is amazing...

Re: Lilypond for n900?

I haven't heard of Lilypond ever before. I see Linux/GNU and FreeBSD versions on their website, but not debian packages. There is source (http://www.lilypond.org/source.html) available.

Re: Thinking of grabbing an N900, anything I should look out for?

Both of mine have been under £100 on eBay.

The first had a weird fault that caused battery drain and ultimately the backlight to fail. That was a ***** to diagnose.

The second is going strong....

Re: Thinking of grabbing an N900, anything I should look out for?

I'd definitely try to get a new one above refurbished/used, as jd4200 said above. I've bought 2 used n900's and haven't encountered issues, though, just trust the seller.

Re: Thinking of grabbing an N900, anything I should look out for?

I don't think you'd regret buying one, for the reasons you mentioned at least.
I first got one a few months after they came out in 2010, it broke after 2.5 years, I picked up an N9 which has done me...
