I do not use bootmenu, just the default boot mode. I have the Comm.SSU installed, and ASUI. When I reboot, I need to restart MCE and all the other fiddling that's necessary. Is that what's meant by the "MCE/alarmd problem"?

Do you mean I can get around this by disabling alarmd? Other than setting an alarm (which I never do), is alarmd needed for anything?

The screen won't blank after booting until MCE is restarted. You don't have DT installed? We thought it was ASUI or DT causing the problem.

Yes, disabling alarmd fixes the problem. It is used by alarms set from statusbar clock, world clock, flipclock and any apps that set a task to run at a later time.

I have DT installed, and I see the problem from time to time, but I am NOT booting from SD. I'm still using the normal boot.

Following up late here; I don't think I've been in this forum since February.

I do have DT installed.

I see that I have alarmd ("Alarm Dispatcher") disabled under ASUI Settings | Services. I still have to restart MCE on reboot, so the answer to my question in #121 is NO: disabling alarmd does not fix the MCE restart and related issues.

Anyway: the N800 has dropped to fourth place in my devices. I still use it as the remote controller to MediaMonkey on my PC, via Tear and a MM webserver extension that I wrote. Other than that, it gets no use: I bought an iPod nano; better than Canola in almost every way, except scrobbling.

And then three weeks ago, I bought a Galaxy Tab S (7") which is the tablet I now bring to work with me and use when I'm on the couch. I have to say, a vibrant software ecosystem is a lot more fun than dealing with "community" software. I mean, I very much appreciated ASUI, DT, and the CSSU, but they didn't quite solve all the problems and required lots of fiddling (such as the MCE restart, which actually takes three steps before the NIT is following my prefs).

The Tab isn't perfect but, essentially, It Just Works. WiFi management is much better; power management is much better; of course the CPU and graphics are more powerful; and it has apps. Many, many apps. Free ones that are much nicer than any software I had on the NIT.

But I wanted apps. Despite its potential, Canola was dead in the water. UPnP players were mediocre. Mail clients sucked. I am bidding adieu to the whole Maemo thing. Best of luck to you die-hards.

Quick question:

can I install the SSU when I boot from the internal SSD? Will installing the SSU affect my untouched vanilla boot from internal flash? What exactly gets changed by the SSU? The initfs?

Re: [Announce] First "stable" Diablo community SSU released and call for participation
 

Yes.

Yes, because the kernel will be updated. It should be compatible though.

Kernel + some userland packages. The initfs is a big can of worms as we don't have licence to modify & redistribute bits of it (not even linuxrc!) and patching it in place can be tricky as space is limited and a lot of people have modified theirs (eg by installing various versions of bootmenu).

is it possibel in cssu update ?

Re: [Announce] First "stable" Diablo community SSU released and call for participation
 

Most of these effects would require working GL drivers, so no.

Re: [Announce] First "stable" Diablo community SSU released and call for participation
 

You can not imagine how really angry I am that nokia is not going on with this anymore.

Let's please keep this thread on topic, shall we?

Re: [Announce] First "stable" Diablo community SSU released and call for participation
 

Good news, everybody.

You may remember that a while back I was working on porting a modern GTK+ and glib stack. Well, I haven't gotten GTK+ done yet (tens of thousands of lines of patch code), but I figured out what was causing my glib port to trash gtk themes (it was my own error) and I'm happy to announce that I have a full glib stack based on version 2.30.2 working in Scratchbox. Currently the only major problem that I can tell is that the enter key doesn't work...hmm...working on this.

I'm abroad right now and don't have my N800 to test ARM binaries, nor am I entirely sure that it would be appropriate to upload my source package to the unstable repository. But at any rate, it's mostly working. Once finished, this should give us the ability to run newer software. I actually have a preliminary port of AbiWord 2.9.1 running in Scratchbox, which is much faster and more stable than the current Maemo version. (Not much use though since the enter key isn't working yet.)

Re: [Announce] First "stable" Diablo community SSU released and call for participation
 

That's amazing, thanks for doing this!

AFAIK it never did, I always had to use the keypad enter key instead.

Re: [Announce] First "stable" Diablo community SSU released and call for participation
 

Ah, I've never tried to run a text editor in Scratchbox before so I didn't know this. How is it then that the enter key on Bluetooth/USB keyboards works fine?

Re: [Announce] First "stable" Diablo community SSU released and call for participation
 

the whole enter/return thing has always been weird.

Iirc, dpad center maps to return while osk and N810 return maps to enter.
