i know that, but i was look for an answer to a different question and as someone talked about typing 'rootsh' into xtern to config i tried it about 2 mins before i stumbled across this thread.

im new to maemo and it confused.com me as i didn't know 'root' worked as 'sudo gainroot'. thats my problem anyway when i type sudo gainroot this morning its asking for a password(bugger) but was working fine till then as i was using last night to enable reboot from the menu mod.

any ideas to my problem and the depricated problem?
