Can someone post exact kernel version as displayed on boot? I have some custom kernel modifications so I would like to know how big is the chance that my old modified kernel will work with newer rootfs in the firmware (as the sources of newer kernel probably aren't available yet). Thanks.

If the file is not too big, would some kind soul mind posting it or emailing it to me? Apple uses a different zoneinfo setup in OSX

Gee, don't know why all you guys are complaining about the time being off by three hours. I STILL can't even select my country's timezone! I mean New Zealand isn't that hard to find on the map Nokia

Thanks, that worked. I made a directory called America under /usr/share/zoneinfo and copied just the New_York file over to this directory.

Then ran the command "tzconfig" and selected America then New_York.

The time is now correct and the Daylight Savings can be selected.

I tarballed /usr/share/zoneinfo from my linux machine, scp'ed it over to my Nokia 770, and untar'ed it there, and now the daylight savings checkbox and the clock applet work fine.
same here

I foolishly didn't keep a local copy, and editing config files using cat and sed is a painful experience
The replacement bleb.org server is now fully operational: unfortunately it's about 100 miles from its data centre.

However, I've put it online at the end of my broadband connection, so my vim, sylpheed & Mac OS X flasher packages can be got here:

Don't expect it to be as quick, and expect temporary outages as I reboot the new server to test the bootstrap process. It'll also be down on Tuesday as it's moved back to the permanent rack.

HTH,

Andrew

The directory is pretty large, I would just copy over the Country/City that you need. I have posted the compressed tar here:

I guess i will switch backwards to the previous version of the firmware for the following reasons:

- clock settings is wrong (3 hours difference(?))
- many times mail is not loaded
- powering on is not good (I have to press many times the power on button before something is happening
. when powering off the charge-screen appears (??)
- browsing web-pages takes ages

Did the new firmware help anyone with the notorious WLAN-problems?
Knowing they did some bug fixing in this area would be the only reason to go through the backup/update/restore-process, even though there are known new bugs; right now, not beeing able to connect to my WLAN-router, the 770 is back in its box waiting for better times. (A WLAN-device that doesnt do WLAN is not too useful, after all...)

Actually, I had a lot of WPA issues with previous versions, and for kicks, I tried WPA with the new image, and it has worked flawlessly so far. It still silently drops the connection after half an hour of inactivity, but I don't mind that as much. I'm just glad that I can have real security again!
