It looks like you have lots of package installed, and probably one or some of it is causing the problem.

Lets try to clean it up,
You need root access for it, if you dont have root search the forum on how to install it. and once logged in as root do.

PHP Code:
rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* 
PHP Code:
mkdir -/var/lib/apt/lists/partial 
PHP Code:
apt-get update 
it will re-create the entries for you. I would also suggest you disable all the repositories before in application manager and leave only ovi, nokia ones and maemo.org and try the above.

Hopefully it should work.
Cheers

yes, you have to write in xterminal, when you have gained root access.

For rootsh, you can try to install it manually.
-- Download the file http://repository.maemo.org/extras/p..._1.5_armel.deb
-- Once downloaded you have to copy this from your PC to n900, lets say copy it to /home/user
-- once you have the file in n900. do
cd /home/user
dpkg -i rootsh_1.5_armel.deb
And it will install the rooth, after this you type "sudo gainroot".

I am not sure, but try to download and save this file directely from your phone. might be it will work.

Good luck, search forum, if you are stuck. or we will see tomorrow.

Wouldn't he need to be root to do dpkg? I saw nicolai say in another thread that he could save the file in MyDocs and then launch it from the file manager.

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 !
Santhosh
