I have not tried those programs you are talking about. But it could mean that they might not be supported on PR1.2.. i am not sure. You should try to upgrade to the latest version of the programs. Possibly enable extras-devel if necessary.

If you want any help... you will need to print out those errors you got. Otherwise it would be difficult to help.
Well, when the first batch of Nokia N900 were released, they didn't come with PR 1.1.1 firmware installed on them (coz the firmware wasn't even out at that time). Those apparently have the smoother keyboard.

Then, after a couple of months, they released what apparently is the newer model, with the PR 1.1.1 pre-installed and has the keyboard with a rougher texture.

I've used both so i can definitely tell there is a difference.



And like i said, those apps worked fine on my first N900. I've never had any of this problem at all. And my first N900 was updated to PR 1.2 already. SO ya, those apps do work with PR 1.2. Already enabled the extra-devels too......


as for the errors, there're too many, i didn't write them down. I have about 2.6GB of stuff that needs to be restored and downloaded, so i can't just go through all the failed ones and write down their app name and error message. I did however provide one, which is actually in the last paragraph of my previous comment so you couldn't have missed it....
