hmm man i aint got no problems...as for skype...it works a little better...clearer...as for vid calling...well i dont know..

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

We still need initfs_flasher updated to support mmc boot.
Right ?

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

You do have some 'big' apps not working. Problem. I know a way to get around. Is the MMC boot menu still working? Did some of you early adapter able to hack to make a bootmenu work? I need that to get to use my mplayer to continue my pet projet. I need mplayer.27, I need mplayer.27, I need mplayer.27. Nothing? I was taught to say something 3 times, it is going to happen. This time obviously not. Strange.


I was joking couple hrs back, the best about Diablo is one can now browse iTT from your tablet and wont crash. Unfortunately, that has become quite true now :(

that someone was me, and i swear that its the exact same answer that i got when asking about this while first trying out the modest betas. sadly i cant dig up who or when i got that reply :(

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

I have some catalogues there that has chinook information. But I cant install those softwares.

There is atleast garage Extras and Gizmo Catalogue that have Chinook information.

Whats missing/what should I add.. :confused:

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

OK, I'll be more specific... can anyone post the output of:
on a clean-flashed Diablo install? (If you've got bootmenu installed or not, that's fine, but you have to have an actual Diablo flash, not a hybrid draftSSU deviant.)

FWIW, mine (Chinook / draftSSU, with way customized initfs) looks like:
initfs_flasher worked just fine, BTW; don't know any reason it wouldn't work now, though it might take a little more intervention...

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

I tried but no, video call is no there.

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Has anyone manager to instal Rhapsody, I keep getting told applications are missing:


Application packages missing:
flash-and-reboot (=3)
initfs-flasher (=0.9516-200823maemo2)
kernel-diablo-flasher (=2.6.21-200823maemo3)
osso-ic (>1.0.0)

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

With Diablo fresh install:

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

What is the password when I do sudo apt-get install ?

I have tried rootme but no lluck...

Regards

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Awesome!
4 MiB = twice the fun! I can see a lot more options from initfs...
(I'm thinking wireless or USB-ethernet for recovery console, at least.)
And I can stop worrying about how big my graphics are going to be. :D

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

i installed easyroot......did the rootme trick...mentioned elsewhere...no issues...

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Can anyone tell me if they fixed the issue with the intermittent double characters when using the stylus on-screen keyboard? That was driving me nuts and pretty much was the reason that I relegated my N800 to bathroom duty in favor of my iPhone. That and the annoying scrolling/panning behavior in the browser, but it sounds like they've worked on the scrolling/panning issues in MicroB.

I installed becomeroot, and sudo garinroot works.

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Is it part of the default depot ?

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

no repeated characters for me yet...fair amount of testing too. Looking good.

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

I dl VCURLs72 after installed videocenter, and put primary.db into /home/user/videocenter, and voila everything worked under Diablo. And of course cannot stop gawking at the beautiful CBS Katie Couric evening news.



Just a random note, the following works:

becomeroot, bora
diskusage
emelfm 2, chinook
gnumeric
kmplayer
maemo mapper
mediabox media center
mplayer 1.0 .27
Osso statusbar-cpu chinook
osso screen shot tool 1.20
Simple launher 0.9.5
Skype
VideoCenter
VNC viewer
X11vnc


Edit: mplayer .27 works. Not quite sure how to achieve this, it just pop up after I keeps on adding repos.


Xmms wont install.

bun

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Well there is a way to fix your problem without reflashing

you should install becomeroot package (from this repository (Eko One))

1) open the terminal

2) login as root, then use these commands

3.1) apt-get update

3.2) apt-get -f install
you are suppose to respond yes to every question apt-get poses you.


Now you should able to install Rhapsody

Enjoy

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

I wonder how long will take to Arstechnica.com guys to notice the news about Diablo...

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

I had to provide a (new) root password when autoreinstalling openssh-server. I thought about using "rootme" then decided not to ;)

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

I installed the old becomeroot and "sudo gainroot" worked like normal...

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Thanks that cured most of it but still wont instal and the last missing application is:

Actually I can't notice any improvement on the browser not even on Youtube :(

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

My flash went very well and a restore brought back nearly everything. Nice to see a better email app however I don't like that I can't turn off the checking like the other accounts. It goes to 100% CPU much too often with default settings against a large IMAP account so back to claws I go. Also the onboard XMPP is still a little flaky with random disconnects as before. The SIP phone still works as before although it would be nice to have an * key on the main dialing pad instead of just the DTMF. Would be really nice to have an option to ring the speaker instead of the headphone for inbound calls. Otherwise a nice upgrade.

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Just disable it? It's right in the settings. . . .

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

to those people having problems heres a crazy idea...try rebooting...it might just fix some problems...

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Great software, feels snappier, the browser is working way better and most of my former apps work just fine. :)

But ... anyone got usb host working? I tried USBcontrol and it just says "USB CONTROLLER MODE: a_wait_vrise" and nothing happens when I plug something in. :eek:

EDIT: Wait, cardreader works, I'll have to re-check my USB keyboard then. Sorry!

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Of course which then means I'm better off with claws anyway. I would have liked it integrated with the presence apps but it just doesn't play nicely. Not a big deal actually.

The funny or not so funny thing is that it went into a tizzy and even after a reboot it was bonkers and shifted the whole screen over making setting changes rather interesting. Disabled now and feeling much better..

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Have you used the restore function? It is often a cause of troubles...

It should not be so unreliable, many quirks are restore related...

Sorry...

P.S.
I'm not totally sure about the existence of that library in diablo (at least not with that very name, i just found something like ic2-osso-ic .... )

http://repository.maemo.org/pool/dia...2-osso-ic-dev/

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Gasp... just came home from work, saw the announcement on the maemo ML, checked in here and, WTF, twenty pages ?! :-)

Too bad this is going to have to wait until the weekend... :-(

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

I fell microb sappier because I have no plugin installed (yet)...I'll try with flash and add block (plus). :)

P.S.
I noticed that I don't have avay (bonjour) service running (but a lot of juicy IPv6 stuff), do you have it running? :eek:

P.P.S
Do you have reinstalled RTCOMM beta or just the haze and telephaty packages? :confused:

Gadnat!

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Can't see this anywhere else -

following diablo flashing, and restore of settings, the application manager fails to update as all the repositories are trying to point to 128.0.0.1:8118. I used to have a proxy adblocker installed (which pointed to this IP/port), but the connection settings have this firmly turned off. So my guess is that the app mgr is holding this proxy data somewhere. Anyone got an idea where this may be?

Thanks

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

at the rate this is going...you'll be overwhelmed...:).

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Whoops - you post in despair then find a fix 30s after. My problem below was fixed by just deleting the maemo extras dev repository. Hopefully the answer may help someone else.

>following diablo flashing, and restore of settings, the application manager fails to update as all the repositories are trying to point to 128.0.0.1:8118.

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Finally xterm keeps toolbar settings. And locale settings are great!
And I got gps fix about 30s. I think agps helps little bit :>

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Can anyone help please, I know what my problem is now but dont know how to fix it.

I checked the repositories and they had no distribution listed, I made it diablo and now I have to updates available:

Operating system and makedev (2.3.1-73osso-4)

Both say they are uninstallable because the other is missing, when I try to install them they say "go ahead anyway", I say yes but it fails.

As they are reliant on each other how can I fix this?

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Ok....this is VAGUELY related....I have re-flashed and everything is going good.

AGPS doesn't seem to give me a faster fix....in fact I have NEVER had a fix with the internal...I use an external Globaltop G66 and it's freakin awesome so i'm not really bothered.

Anyway...I notice that when I did the whole penguin-jiggidy-jiggidy-dual-boot-from-external thing that when I booted sometimes a bloke would talk to me from my N810 saying something like:

"Hello, this is Liam Scromscrod, and I pronounce Linux as...Linux"

...really quiet-like and not very well recorded.

I figure SOMEBODY must be able to tell me who/what the hell that was? I figure it was a "signature" from the software writer of the external-boot thingy.

My Fiance want's to know as she thinks it's pretty weird....so did I.

Luckily....the man in my N810 is now gone.

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

I have just updated bootmenu to support Diablo initfs version, flashed my N810 with it and it works, not tried 770 and N800 yet.
http://fanoush.wz.cz/maemo/#initfs
http://fanoush.wz.cz/maemo/initfs_flasher.tgz

Maybe it was already mentioned (will read this thread later) but initfs is now bigger (4MB) so no need to remove extra stuff and more possibilities in future and also dual booting with previous firmware works.

This is just quick update, there is still no full support for framebuffer console. There are two new optional bootmenu.conf options MENU_X_FBMODE (auto,manual) and MENU_X_USBMODE (host,peripheral,otg) but so far they are not much useful. Both are meant primarily for emergency framebuffer recovery console (with usb keyboard in case of N800/770) but it is not finished yet.

Re: Diablo Released - Say Goodbye to Firmware Flashing
 

Weird about agps, I saw it when I first flashed, now I no longer see it in Installed or Installable apps.

But my GPS seems a lot faster; it's a Holus GPSlim 240 on my N800. I got good reception from my bed, where I usually can't get a fix.

Other than that and a certain overall smoother feeling, I haven't noticed much change. I would have thought that Nokia could have energized the free development system by bundling Personal Menu and the large statusbar clock with the system; they are big improvements on what the tablet comes with by default. And screen rotation. It would be a secret sign that Nokia actually appreciates the volunteer contributions made.
