is there a "non geeky" way for newbies to achieve these results? For me N900 transmitter is completely useless because all I get is static :(

This is awesome guys ! i was looking for this. tks, will try it later today.

Other nice tweak would be getting the radio display to show the name of the song playing instead of "NOKIA".

it would be nice if this could be added to the fmxwidget, so everytime you switch the fm transmitter on youll get the value set automaticaly ... let's see if i can get ahold of the guy who wrote it...

I have the same problem, xterm opening and requesting password, however I have edited sudoers according to your instructions. Cannot see where I have erred though I must have...any ideas? Some common sense mistake perhaps?

Make sure you do not have a blank line or trailing characters after the line. As stated in a few posts previous its best to use visudo to edit this file as it will highlight syntax errors etc.
