Installing and using Dropbear to access my 880 xterm from my PC linux (Ubuntu), I established a password. This worked fine the first time. On subsequent attempts, the password (as I remembered it) didn't work. To then gain access to my 880 root I later installed the "becomeroot" facility, and this has worked fine, with its own password. However, now I cannot access the 880 root from my PC using Dropbear with the new "becomeroot" password. My PC still doesn't recognize any pasword that I enter. Also, I cannot install "becomeroot" on my PC as a replacement for the Dropbear, as "becomeroot" is an armel.deb application, which Ibuntu will not extract and load. The bootom line is that at this stage I can't access my 880 root from my PC. Any thoughts out there. Thanks.
