Re: Using the n900 in 2012

Re: Which Linux version can i run perfectly ????
Smaller distros will work just fine with your specs, and don't forget older hardware tends to be better supported under FOSS so its very likely you won't need any proprietary binary blobs for your...

Re: Web page loading problem T-mobile prepaid
I'm going to assume you're talking about T-MO USA. The problem is a very badly designed website that uses an insane amount of javascript. Even on a regular PC the POS site is slow. On the N900 it...

Re: Kernel Power (Titan's Custom Kernel)
@cheve: Weird. I haven't played with the N900's kernel much (either the stock or power46), but looking in /lib/modules/current shows "isofs.ko", which may be it--I'd have to look on my PC running...

This is precisely one of the major reasons I (and I'm sure many/most others) have strongly considered (or already did) re-format the eMMC with something not M$-compatible. I haven't done it, but...

Re: can i program with n900 ?
There, corrected that for you: I'd say, within reason, you can do everything on the N900 you could on a netbook; and like a netbook, graphics-heavy stuff and especially Flash games don't work well.
