Are you using the Application Manager or command line over ssh? I installed canola2 using "apt-get install canola2" over a remote session (PuTTY on a PC) and wondered why the installation stalled at the end, then I realised the installation prompts in the GUI for the user to accept a licence and wouldn't proceed until I clicked "OK". D'oh!

I'm using application mgr. I know very little about linux and nothing about command lines and ssh. This N800 is my first foray into this area. I have picked up a lot of info, but it is incomplete.

It would be helpful to me, and probably others as well, if there were a link on here to somewhere where there is an explanation of the basics: deb files, repositories, becoming root, commands, compiling, sources and the rest of it.

Example: I looked up info on downloading mplayer on its homepage and didn't understand it. If there isn't a green download arrow, I'm lost.

I've tried googling for explanations of how linux is structured, but it's confusing and there are many kinds. I don't know if the rules for one apply to them all. Basically, when I read a post referring to this stuff, I feel like I came in in the middle and it goes over my head.

I removed the power saving into WIFI preferences, but the issue is still here.
The strange thing is that after connection hangs my n800 is not able to discover WLAN any more...

Considering that also Bluetooth DUN is quite unstable now and there is no Bluetooth PAN it's frustrating...
