I was just reading the whole thread
kinda useless

but just as it has been said before.
1. clear title and no weird suggestions helps mainly
2. the people like to help here, many times learned myself here.
but if you are not reading the posts and just act like a total freek out guy that def does not help.

i always say three parts always should be in every help asking post:

When, Where, What helps to clarify all questions most of the time.

And also all components which are used additionally (PC OS etc hich can be caused the problem, or can be used for fix the problem)

And last but not least, if you only know how to switch on the device and your PC and nothing more.
Please do only use ready programs and nothing from Extra or testing. Safes from bad headaches


Finally, dont take every post personally some jokes are always allowed and all the people helping here need sometimes some changes and if there is a chance just nail it

you know everyday i read posts and see what people are doing . I love this post but you have to understand not everyone know how to program. People that get these phones are mostly like me and don't understand anything. We just got sold on what this phone can do but were misinformed that you have to do most if it from scratch .. I and i bet most of the user here would love to know how to do this with out bugging anyone. but i think (geeks) which is a good thing to be called here need to understand not everyone knows everything. I hope i can speak for for the non geeks but we do get lost here sometimes. to find a thread is hard so the easiest thing is to post another. very hard on everyone. is there a way on this forum to find your question that you posted without going on every page till you find it. search engine is not very non geek friendly.. ?? so guys thanks for the help on all the goodies you have develop and I am learning as fast as i can...

imo people who ask for help and don't supply such information would deserve to get the thread removed and banned for a month from this forum....

it is ridiculous to read 2 or 3 first pages of a thread before you have knowledge about any of those things mentioned.

the OP is a bit like car driver who freaks out if there is a granny at crosswalk 200m ahead: shoves gas pedal through the floor, covers his eyes with his hands and then shouts: help me talk.maemo.org!!!!

Some day there will surely be virus and trojans, because people happily load and install unsigned deb-files. It would be real easy currently to hack into several N900's.
Fortunately Meego will have RPM-package format and unsigned RPM-packages are widely known as a shame on packager.


Using dpkg to install programs, is almost always risky. (Only very very few DEB-files include a GPG signature.) Use apt-tools.

Try out Power Search below big offical search. I have found it more precise and powerful than the other. After search you can filter it to one area "talk", "wikipedia", "Brainstrom", "Bugzilla" etc.. Try it out.
