Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v53 in Extras Testing

Thanks for that tip, tmi.

I just checked back in to say that I've been using the power-kernel since April 17th and it's worked like a charm. No problems, no glitches. I've been using it for...

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v53 in Extras Testing

All's well that ends well. At least I think things have ended well. Some more testing to do, but the main thing is the phone still seems to work. :D

So this is what I ended up doing. I wanted to...

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v53 in Extras Testing

I like the idea of having a whole tribe of nokias :D

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v53 in Extras Testing

Thanks endsormeans and reinob!

Ah yes, explain what I want to do. That would have been a good first step, I guess. :D 1-3 = background. 4=what I want to do.

Re: Neo900 - finally a successor of N900

NSA crap in the US means there's more of an opportunity for FOSS than there has been for a while. Nothing huge or mass market, but bigger than it was.

Wait. What? No Jolla device? Could you elaborate?

Re: Nemo mobile discussions

Actually, when I look in AppMan, I still have multiboot in there. ? AppMan won't let me remove it because the broken dependencies go in a circle. But I tried FasterAppMan, and it says it's done it! I...

Okay, I uninstalled and re-installed uboot-pr13. Then it boots from sdcard again. But when I want to switch to maemo, and give the command "run noloboot", then it just seems to switch itself off. If...

Yes, I have multiboot. I had that first, though, because I was playing with Nitdroid way back when. I installed uboot later and flashed the kernel then, so multiboot shouldn't be somehow...

uboot not coming up after shutting down Nemo

Nemo is on sdcard on N900. Uboot-pr13 (Carsten Munk's version) booted straight to Nemo. I wanted to see whether I could get it to maemo without pulling the sdcard, so I interrupted uboot, gave "run...
