Firmware download link.
  • This firmware has no SDHC support
  • Flash video is improved, but probably only to about 7 or 8 fps
  • Video (non-flash) seems to be improved - no tearing. Don't know if any new codecs are supported, my DiVX files are on SDHC cards...

It would be useful to have more detailed change logs, and to have the change log cross referenced with Bugzilla. Now we have to hunt down and re-test bugs which may or may not have been fixed. :(

Initial impression so far: Disappointed, but hopefully it's fixed some of the more embarassing bugs such as reboot loops, even though these didn't affect me.

What is kernel version?
Code:

cat /proc/version
What is initfs version?
Code:

cat /mnt/initfs/etc/initfs_version
Will take some time before I flash mine (tomorrow?).

Thanks.

I'm up and running.. pleased to see that sources.list was backuped as well, I wasn't aware of that. Anyway I made several additional tar backups before I upgraded, presumably e.g. the maemo mapper maps have to be re-installed from backup, but so far settings etc. seems ok. I haven't flashed the unit before this.
I agree with Milhouse about the docu.. not much of a release note, compared to what's normal where I work.

Seems to play my Heroes.S01E01.HDTV.XviD-LOL sample! Not very fast screen updates, but I belive codec is xvid.

Note to NOKIA. Please please please. Let the download happen BEFORE we have to connect our devices. No reason at all to have to waste THE PRECIOUS (battery power) waiting on a download.
