Don't worry, I don't think you offended anybody. :)

Doesn't work viewfinder is all gray and it doesn't seem to take any pictures. What a dissapointment.

Not that the project should have necessarily taken it into consideration per se... but having no knowledge of it what-so-ever throughout initial development?

Titan's kernel is one of the hottest TMO topics :rolleyes:. Anyway, hope it's sorted so power users can eventually check out fcam.

is it? what is it anyway? connected somehow to overclocking?

kaboom, your point has been flushed.

e: what can we learn? your use cases aren't the only ones. N900 allows huge diversity.

Re: Nokia has exciting news for N900 users

could someone post some sample pics? thanks so much, super excited about this project.

It is actually quite difficult to spot the difference between a high quality jpeg and the raw image. The artifacts present in the N900's (and most other mobiles) pictures are the result of post-processing.

People like ýou should not buy an N900 go buy something else instead of crying like a ten year old kid.

Re: Nokia has exciting news for N900 users

What a cranky thread this is! Look, when someone does something innovative, sometimes there is an adjustment period. Titan needs a raise in salary before he's going to monitor things and fix his kernel lickety-split, whenever something problematic comes out. We need some patience. We could always go back to not overclocking, depending on what we care about most. Chill out!

Let's see what the original post had:

Keep it locked to Conversations tomorrow, as we’ll have some more exciting news for Nokia N900 owners.

And suddenly, it turned to epic revolutionary newsfest equivalent of MeeGo-productized-for-N900 in the demented minds of TMO readership.

I thought the same thing. The devolopers must not be N900 users, as in they own one and use it as their primary (or even secondary) device. Sounds like engineers that don't drive the cars that their engines power...

So, what is your solution?

Should new apps be denied from maemo repos until they have been tested with titans kernel? What if the developer is not interested in overclocking and cannot be arsed to do this? His/her (otherwise fine app) will never appear in repos? What if tomorrow we will get a neat unofficial kernel from Paul, and another one from Mary? Apps now need to be tested with all four available kernels before allowing them to repos?

No, that is nonsense -- that kind of control is possible only among components of a closed system. The only sensible way to do it here is the one that was practiced: develop and test with the official kernel, official components. If there are problems with community add-ons, fix them as problems appear, if feasible.
