Re: [Annouce] HealthCheck - Hardware/System checker for the N900
 

oooo that's erroring out whilst reading your maemo version.

Please can you go into x-terminal and run this command?
And let me know the output please?

(And mine has the same error lol - but as i'm working on the new one - i haven;t quite got round to sorting it!)

lol!!!!!!!!
the mp-fremantle is a core file - but with regards to overclocking/kernels etc - they sometimes change, hence scewing up healthcheck (and my rubbish error checking!)

before i screw up your device, can you let me know what specifics you have?
What firmware do you think you are on? (pr1.2 pr1.3 etc)
Are you using an overclocking kernel?
Do you use nitroid/multiboot?
Do you use uboot/Meego?

That's because you've force installed (either manually or via apt-get dist-upgrade) a new version of libsdl-mixer1.2 that's not compatible with the current firmware. You'll need to force install the old version again first - I think this'll do it:

I don't mind screwing it up too much as long as I can restore a backup :-)

I'm on 1.3 (20.2010.36-2), no overclocking, multiboot, and I don't use meego (yet)

Rob1ns advise should work! :) :)

It fixed it indeed! Thanks :-)

When proximity sensor is said "closed", does it mean it detects something? It says closed whether I put my finger in front of it or not during update.

well done!
open means nothing near the proxi, closed means it is covered. unfortunatley it only has the two states.
