Very cool - thank you. Looks like it just hit a couple days ago. Have you used it? Seems simple enough (should be) to not cause problems. Screen shots show limited selection ability... I shall see I guess.

I took care that irritating hands vid on day two like all my Nokia stuff :-) but that's cool.

Oh, this is sweet. Now why couldn't this just be a setting in the detault config? Too complex I guess ;-)

Could be a tad more intuitive, but easily one of the must-haves for the device.

Thanks again.

So, to the original poster - install powatool from the extras-devels repo (at your own risk) and your problem should be solved. I disabled profiles and the active sync (restarting, but I think that's what is in powatool) applets and turned on geotagging in camera and flashlight is there.

I've used this for 3-mins so no idea if it causes any other issues, but really shouldn't.

For the original poster: disable extras-devel (keep it disabled) and reinstall the application.

OK, I enabled devel, installed a bunch of apps and all the updates. Now it won't boot and the flashlight doesn't work at all. Weeeiiiird.

Should I put this in as a bug?

Next time I will keep it enabled for sure. My bad for disabling it.
