I've just rediscovered my N810s, reflashed them both and set them up. Still use them occasionally for ebook reading and music playing.

Does anyone have an updated openssl (or equivalent) for Diablo? It would be nice to keep email secure over IMAP.

Hahahaha....
ANOTHER comedian!!

you can check...but...
I don't think so alexc.
There are still plenty of us around here still who use the n8x0's ...
and about once a month a new member joins with their n8x0..
But we don't have devoted folks updating...
However things aren't falling apart ...the n8x0's are ageing gracefully...
The bulk of the progs for the n8x0's still work...though there is little maintaining being done...
we do have the odd patch or new thing or backport or some-such ...
from innovative folks using their n8x0's and the n900 community..

but you will have to check out openssl and see..
perhaps if you ask one or two of the n900 gurus ...they can look into it and see what can be done...
Openssl is not my forte or I would myself..

I just bought my first N810 from ebay, it arrived yesterday. New in the box. Seeing what I can do with it in 2019. I had a 770 when they first came out.

You've been around here for a long time...
Since the place began, pretty much....
I found this place a year or so later...
Researched the hell out of the best options at the time..and the nxx0 line just fit the bill...and skulked around in the shadows for years before officially joining...
I don't believe in social platforms...and have always steered clear of them...
But in the end relented and joined here.

And... if you remember the 770...
then you should know...
that the feeling will be even better.

I can only speak for myself of course...
But ...for me it's like Christmas-morning-present-opening-time ..for me..
EVERY time I turn mine on to use it.
The feeling for me just never went away...

Welcome to the n8x0 - fold.
Have lots and lots and lots of fun man.

It's absolutely delightful that there still are boxed-as-new N810's around!

Welcome to the n8x0 - fold.

Yes, i was a wee bit active w/ the 2006 update and the n770. I loved that little machine. I got it pretty much when it came out. iPhone has taken over much of that love in the years in between. I always wanted a 810, and this was the change to get one new. I'll pop on the latest diablo community build and see what it can do.

Many of the repos and debs discussed here are long gone. I'll see what might be put together.

Hardly...
Not much has disappeared...
our repos work...and then there is the gronmayer catalogue project ...hunting down what 3rd parties are gone and what are active still.....
I did extensive research and cataloguing on just what has been lost.
Very little in the end...
But that isn't to say we haven't lost some things...especially from third party repos .

Also you may wish to install cssu , turbo, and few more things.

that is what the links are there for...the new n8x0 folks

Arora ...hm...
as I have mentioned before ...
the depth and vastness of the n8x0 subforums are such that I have not seen everything in them, in all my years of study of them.

https://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=27283

first post mentions a website and uploads which are nonfunctional and gone.
N8xx.com
which I have never stumbled across to my recollection...
(I may have ...but it doesn't ring a bell...I have squeezed so much into my head concerning the n8x0's over the years ...much has squeezed out to compensate ...I have forgotten much... it's either do that...or go mad with all the info ...)

However ...
wayback does have saved snapshots of the site....
https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://n8xx.com/

Serious sifting through them ...page by page if necessary may yield a stable deb
I have done so before....so I know it is a viable method of examination.

One second...
further reading of the Arora thread in Talk...
Last page, post by xes, he compiled it and it does have a viable and still functional download link.

https://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?...9&postcount=57

As an aside to this conversation...
It may be that n8xx.com could yield a great deal of information that is not present in our own archives and could benefit us from the inspection and potential gains....gains beyond the n8x0 models...
since they also were a forum on the fremantle and meego platforms as well..
