With few applications available with the release of the new Diablo update for N810, my device sucks. When i thought the update would include better im application that would allow me to communicate with my friends from other networks... without PIDGIN your N810 sucks!

A lot of applications you have installed from Maemo will not work!

Dont update yours! Boring device with the new diablo... period!

Well, this list isn't really true. Some packages there listed weren't in extras never.


PLEASE, IF A PACKAGE ISN'T EXTRAS AN YOU LIKE IT, FORCE TO THE DEVELOPER TO UPLOAD IT THERE. It's the best way of which the developers take seriously this.
Send a message to her:
""" I want your package in extras. Else you will suffer 1000 years of bad luck. """
Or something similar.

Did i say that the applications i installed from maemo are EXTRAS by default? Maybe your happy with your device out of the box. Me, i want some applications... IM(instant messaging) across networks will make my N810 fun to use.

I understand your concern however this is normal for a new OS. Give it some time, or help the situation. You can add old Chinook repositories, or keep using Chinook.

Also, in any case if you'd like to use the ICQ protocol on Pidgin you'll have to install version 2.4.3 of Pidgin. No matter what OS you're running.

Have you installed the rtcomm update???
Have you added the maemo extras chinook repository???

Add a new catalogue in program manager:

Catalog name: maemo Extras chinook
Web address: http://repository.maemo.org/extras/
Distrbution: chinook
Components: free non-free

then install the rtcomm update from this site:

http://rtcomm.garage.maemo.org/

with chinook extras all the other progams from chinook should work, too.
canola2 for example...

Bahh. Really, I am not installing only packages from maemo extras. I am developing too applications and sometimes my device is too unstable.


The topic is, if all (ALL) applications were in maemo extras repository, I only would need ONE repository in the application manager. I wouldn't need search for other repositories in places like gronmayer.

There are two really stupidly simple answers here.

Add Chinook Extras to your Application catalog as mentioned above, and add the Collabora repo from http://www.gronmayer.com/it.

Chinook Extras will serve as a stop-gap until Diablo Extras gets up to speed in a few weeks, and the Collabora repository has the telepathy plugins to allow you to use more services with rtcomm.

Also, calm down.

Then just wait, yerga.

These problems become far less by time due to autobuilder.
