I have an N810 with latest O/S 2008. Been working fine for a few months but in the last couple of days many apps no longer work. eg:
Camera will not take picture (error: cannot capture image)
Recorder will not record (hit record and it stays at 0.0 and gives a blank message box in top right)
Claws mail will not pick up or send mail (no error posted)
Application installer will not refresh available apps, install or update apps. (On refresh it locks up during a download and I can only cancel, installs just say: install failed)

There may be more but this is what I have checked so far. Appart from app installer all the failed ones seem to be 3rd party.

The last application change I made was to uninstall rDesktop and attempt to install the one at
http://wardenclyffetower.com/MaemoFi...-cli-1.5.0.deb
from pipeline.
That install failed and I THINK was the point where things started going wrong.
I tried to reinstall rDesktop and that failed.

Later, I did attempt to install Gnumeric spreadsheet and it appeared to allow some library installs but did not complete the installation. This is where I began to see a pattern emerge of many problems.

What information should I post to help those more knowledgeable than I to suggest what to do?

Thanks for any help the forum can give.
