I've done quite a bit of reading this afternoon but couldn't get certain answers or got answers which seemed possibly suspect, so I'm going to ask them here and get them confirmed here before putting them up as 100% accurate.

1a)-Answered myself

1b) I flashed mine with 2.2006.47-17- why does it say 2.2006.48-7 under About Device in the control panel?

2)Answered myself

2b) Answered myself

2c) Answered myself

2d) Answered myself

2e) Answered

3a) XTERM - I assume using the becomeroot package is the easiest way to gain root access in xterm. Is there a way to change it so when you go into xterm it automatically does a "sudo gainroot" for you? I haven't seen a reason to use xterm without having root access.

3b) Answered myself

3c) The thumboard in xterm (and any other application for that matter) - is it possible to have the return key actual send a "return" signal just like the smaller keyboard? It seems very stupid that you can't use enter without using the small keyboard. The functionaility is mentioned here as here as odd by one person but I would think more people would think this is ridiculous.


4) Answered

I'll leave it at that for now but I have a lot more waiting!

Also - Anyone interested in getting a lot of this material on a Wiki? I'd love to add it to the official maemo one but I really can't stand the way that wiki works
