Hi !

if any one experienced this problem (getting root credentials)
do this :
1. download .deb file from http://repository.maemo.org/extras/p..._1.5_armel.deb to N900 directory.

2. from file manager browse to N900 directory and tap on this file

it will launch App manager and will install rootsh

now open xTerminal and type this command to get root credential

sudo gainroot

Cheers !
