Re: wget, other apps, and other problems
 

@kwotski, I vaguely remember that I had to install wget :)

Re: wget, other apps, and other problems
 

Anyone tried reinstalling the firmware yet?

I'm having a problem. NSU thinks it has 1 second remaining and hasn't done anything.

Re: wget, other apps, and other problems
 

You just added Debian repos to your N900, right?

How about following that up with trying to reflash the device with itunes then?

Re: wget, other apps, and other problems
 

Right over my head.

Are you trying to say I broke the N900? :confused:

Edit: rebooted pc, reinstalling now.

Re: wget, other apps, and other problems
 

wget is in the fremantle/tools repository IIRC.

Re: wget, other apps, and other problems
 

Thanks. Consider me, Mr. Experiment and probably break.

I've managed to get out of that pickle now, software fixed.

Re: wget, other apps, and other problems
 

I found that wget was already installed. I had hardly installed anything at the point in time I checked, so it looks like it was there all the time? What I did install before then was, afaic, load-applet and not much else.

Re: wget, other apps, and other problems
 

I think it's pre-installed because it exists and

dpkg-query -S wget

doesn't produce a positive result.

But it's inside the following wget package, so I'm pretty sure it's from there.

Re: wget, other apps, and other problems
 

Ok, for the record, on checking, it seems I installed it on December 5th. My mind is a blank!

Re: wget, other apps, and other problems
 

Can someone like, re-digest this information so i can figure out how to install wget.

after reading all the posts, i still don't know if:

A) it comes pre-installed
B) doesn't exist (were taking taking it straight from deb, breaking maemo)
C) installing from extras repositories
D) installing from http://repository.maemo.org/pool/fremantle/free/w/wget/

thanks :D
