I've got infinite reboot loop after first restart.
Had to flash device and then install first then second ssu update.
I admit faster browser - zooming on most pages is almost 'realtime'... maybe not that fast but without to unnecessary delay.

Just for reference, everything worked fine on this n800. I did turn on dpkg logging just in case, and I'll leave it for all future upgrades. We'll see if any other bugs are fixed.

I also encountered the endless reboot loop... :(

Previous SSU's did work without a glitch, but this time it didn't. I don't think I have anything "strange" installed on my tablet. Certainly nothing on the "list of 5" things mentioned earlier in this thread.

I'm right now traveling and didn't take the USB cable with me. Luckily the hotel I'm staying have miscellaneous chargers and cables, and they happened to have the Nokia Micro-USB cable... so I was able to reflash using my work laptop. After reflashing the SSU updates worked fine.

To think something positive... I was planning to do a fresh flash anyway to get a clean (no restore backup) install. Now I got a good excuse to do it... :rolleyes:

Quick question: can someone take a video of the new browser in action on a site like slashdot.org and put it on youtube or something? My straight 2008 OS n800 won't even scroll properly in some sites like slashdot and engadget, it just uses 100% cpu doing nothing.

Just wondering if it's worth it to nuke my n800 and put diablo+this update on it over the weekend.

Thanks much!

Again, curse that preinstalled documentation!

I had that problem too, but before then, I had to get the update to work at all, which broke in exactly the same way as the previous update. Also, my n800 ran noticeably more slowly after that update, which was very disappointing.

My n800 installed the update but failed to update the product code (just as it did last big update). I checked my sources.list, as before, and found that the update repo was incorrect, changed it manually and did an apt-get update/upgrade/dist-upgrade.

My /etc/apt/sources/list.d/hildon-application-manager.list looks like this:
deb http://catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com/certified/ diablo user
deb http://catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com/certified/ diablo user
deb http://catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com/non-certified/ diablo user
deb http://catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com/non-certified/ diablo user
deb http://catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com/updates/diablo/ ./
deb http://catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com/updates/diablo-1/ ./
deb http://catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com/updates/diablo-2/ ./

Then, because I'd deleted stuff out of MyDocs, and put links there to the internal mmc card, the document package didn't work, I had to remove the links and re-create the dirs and put some dummy files in. Finally, the packages installed and dpkg-reconfigure worked, and I was upgraded.

No issues here - updated sd, rebooted, updated flash, rebooted and ran initfs-flasher with the bootmenu.conf backup... Totally seamless :)

It's not an impression, rendering is definitely different, though not improved for all kinds of pages.

On the webmail I use at work for example (Horde/IMP variant), the somewhat HTML-heavy Inbox page used to load slowly but progressively, with visible activity on screen and the progress bar.

Now it "loads" an almost empty page immediately, and stays there for a long time (probably same as before), but with nothing visible happening whatsoever. The first couple of times I thought it was hanged and reloaded. But if I just wait, after a while the entire page just appears all at once.

I reflashed, but I now get 2 Web icons and an Applications icon. Since I had no use of it, I removed the Contacts icon in the past, using the Control panel, and it seems that the new OS version doesn't like that.

Edit: This was just due to the fact that Personal Menu wasn't installed yet.

@thecubed: The actual problem is that Slashdot got too darn heavy these days. It loads 720KB page (600KB from the browser cache) for 21 seconds on a normal Pentium 4 / 2GHz. But that's not all - then some javascript runs for +30 seconds on the same machine. If you just leave your tablet and cancel the js warnings it will load at the end and will be easily browsable. Even Webkit chokes on Slashdot (though is faster than MicroB) - check my Tear browser if you want to see for yourself.
