That seems to be where most people have issues. There's three places you can try changing the DNS - on the wireless router, in the advanced network configuration, or the /etc/resolv/conf file. I'd try them in that order and see whether any (or a combination) help.

Sorry, that should have been /etc/resolv.conf - you'll need to be root to edit it, so you'll need rootsh installed.

You can then do:

Code:

sudo gainroot

echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" > /etc/resolv.conf

echo "nameserver 8.8.4.4" >> /etc/resolv.conf

Make sure there's one > in the first command, and two in the second. To change it back to the default, do:

Code:

sudo gainroot

echo "nameserver 127.0.0.1" > /etc/resolv.conf

It didn't work, i changed the dns on my router and i also tried this via TermX are there any other options?

Re: Enna for Nokia N900

Hi,

I'm one of the author of Enna and the one who did the N900 port. I recently been introduced to this talk so I've decided to share a bit more with you and reply to your questions.

At first, Enna has been mainly developed and tested on HTPC so far. Embedded devices obviously are one of the targets but only recently got my N900 so the first release was pretty experimental. As a result, a few functions have been disabled by purpose and theme is not yet completely adapted to touchscreen (need bigger icons).

Anyhow, regarding the few asked questions:
- The app is indeed optified, same goes for all its dependencies.
- It's indeed slow at boot, this is because Enna scans your media paths for media infos and this does a lot of I/Os. Once the database has been created it is obviously faster.
- Regarding dependencies problems, it seems some other repos have different EFL libs versions and names (which can conflict)
- Display has been turned to 16bits only in rel -maemo3, it is now a bit faster.
- Weather and configuration menus have been disabled by purpose because not yet easily human configurable (except from config file)
- MicroSD: I wasn't aware of such a device. I've added support for it in rel -maemo2.
- Auto-rotate: planned when theme will be ready to handle rotated displays
- Cover art browser: not yet planned but interesting idea
- Ability to download data from imdb / themoviedb.org for movies / videos: that's already the case
- Ability to pull lyrics from tunewiki: already pulled (through other providers though), you can display them using "i" touch-key in audio player menu

More to come with next releases (maybe h/w DSP access for A/V playback too, need to check) but I'm all ears with remarks and suggestions.

BTW, I just released a 0.4.0-1maemo3 release which is a bit faster to display. So feel to upgrade.

However, you didn't address my issue. I have SiB, Media Player, and MediaBox and everything plays perfect, both Music and Video.

I try to open Music or Video in Enna and it is too choppy to listen to.

Any solutions for that or comment?

Thanks for the answers! You should implement an easier way of change witch folder it should look for. Right now editing the /etc/enna.cfg i the only way i know.

For me it's only stuttering in the beginning. After that it works perfect. I have all my media organized in different folders.. that might be the case why it's faster for me.

Good question, can you have more than one video folder?

Maybe a first, because, depending on your media collection size, a lot of CPU power is waster grabbing media info and scanning your files. Once done, playback is smoother (but still not yet perfect as everything's done in s/w as for now).
