The biggest problem is that Nokia is still handling Linux like it's five years ago.

Ever since I started using Ubuntu, i haven't had dependency problems, the whole purpose of using a debian based system is to make it so you don't have those problems.

Nokia needs to include a simple repository for the basic libraries and make it very accessible and include it on the tablets from the beginning. The fact that many basic repos need to be added are why people have problems.

Though I will say that people blame Linux for screwing things up that they never tried to do in windows or OSX. If you've simply used windows long enough, you've run into enough problems with installing to make your head explode, especially with Vista. And installing special, or just free, things on OSX in a pain. If you don't pay for it, it may be hard to use. The key exceptions being the really professional groups like Firefox and VLC.

I love having Linux on the n800. I wouldn't have even bought one if it came with windows or something else. But I do wish they would learn a thing or two from Ubuntu about how to really manage a distro.
