- launch X Terminal
- type sudo gainroot (you need the rootsh package installed)
- type apt-get install --reinstall mp-fremantle-generic-pr
- if asked for confirmation press Y and Enter
- when done reboot the N900
WHAT IS ROOTSH PACKAGE HOW CAN I DOWNLOAD? i am totally newbie please help me step by step. I will really appriciate it. Thanks
psAlso when i typed in xterminal in mydevice sudo gainroot it is asking for password? am totally lost please help me.)
Rootsh is in the repositories, i forget which one (power search rootsh and look in downloads), the command "sudo gainroot" won't work without rootsh installed as without it you do not have root access.

Little tip: Once you have downloaded rootsh instead of writing "sudo gainroot" just writing "root" will do the same thing, its just a quicker way of doing it

ps, thanks are in the bottom right of posts.
