n900 software ota update problem?
 
Sorry if this is in the wrong section, new here!

The problem I'm having is with my nokia n900 not updating firmware ota!

I first got the phone when it first came out, used it for a week or 2 and left it, until last week I decided to use it again!

Now the current firmware I'm on is
V 10.2010.19-1.205.1
Rx-51, Nokia N900

I have rootsh installed, have a few respitorys installed ie maemo extras, testing devel etc. I have disabled all of them except software update but still doesn't show a update for the phone!

However for some reason Nokia System Software Updates isn't updating when I click update?

I have tried on X-Term as well, but still it doesn't update firmware OTA!

I have tried ' sudo gain root, apt-get update, apt-get upgrade' but still no joy!

I haven't got my laptop with me so can't update on desktop, can only update ota!

The only reason I want to update is because I want applications such as Twitter, Opera but I can't on this current firmware!

Tried a post on 'prodigits' and it was suggested to try here? Any help would be appreciated!

Many thanks!

Hi and welcome to TMO :). Can you post more information please. What errors are thrown up when you apt-get update/upgrade?

No errors at all? It updates everything other than the maemo firmware?

I can try an update/upgrade now and paste the log?

i have attached a file with the log on.

I can't see any attachment, you might not have earned those privileges yet. Try copy/pasting them.

Tried thanking you but it says I don't have permission to?

Will have a try updating using the avahi-daemon in x-term, but I don't think this will solve my problem because my apps are updating, only not the firmware 'maemo 5'

You've got holded packages, which might block the upgrade.
Please try to upgrade the holded packages manually and then upgrade the system:
Code:
sudo gainroot
apt-get update
apt-get install -s libcurl3 libeet1 libgcc1 libsdl-mixer1.2 libsdl-ttf2.0 libstdc++6 perl-base tweakflashver
Now this will only simulate the install to check, if everything may go fine, at least, with apt's logic. If any errors please post them here.

If not please proceed with the upgrade of the holded stuff:
Code:
apt-get install -f libcurl3 libeet1 libgcc1 libsdl-mixer1.2 libsdl-ttf2.0 libstdc++6 perl-base tweakflashver
apt-get update
apt-get install --reinstall mp-fremantle-community-pr
apt-get upgrade
