oh i still have the same camera bug though. the bug that will not allowed you to delete the picture when you don't want them or a bad shot. you can't discarding it. Though it asked you if you want to delete the picture and you said yes. But when you go to gallery it will still be there undeleted. very annoyed bug.

That bug has been closed pending a brainstorm to come up with a consensus on "correct" behaviour. I suggest you create a Brainstorm issue and post your desired solution, and we can vote there to decide how to resolve this.
Good grief. I don't think Nokia/maemo could be any more out of touch with customer expectations/wants/needs.

Think of Brainstorm as a place to consider all the possibilities and chose the best one (or more), and the bugzilla to report broken apps.

It doesn't mean that choice of either option won't be the final outcome, but it means we've considered it and it's not just the whim of a few random people.
My personal preference is to have auto-pause, so i'll vote on the brainstorm issue and vote on one or more solutions to that effect if you'll set it up.
Also, FYI there is a community app to do this right now.

Classic example of arbitrary Nokia decision making. Couldn't just fallback to the no brainer of tagging with lat/lon if network isn't accessible, could you Nokia?

https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6936 doesn't seem to be in the list from the sticky post with fix that should be in PR1.1...
That's awkward as this disables SIP for any practical use for basically everyone i know!
I hope this can be fixed in a simple farsight/telepathy update !

Choice means having to test multiple configurations, leading to more issues and slower releases of firmware. Unless Nokia decided to support one method and just leave the other choice the "unpaved path". Basically meaning they wouldn't test it but they leave it in.
Only problem is that would mean that it would confuse people so maybe hide the option.
I would prefer that solution over their way or the highway though.

GPS WORKS! I got a connection within seconds! The maps application is now usuable! And The movie player isnt buggy- the movies play with hestitation. The music player doesnt get interrupted with all the other applications running! 
The internet seems to connect better on Gprs and faster with 2.5g.
The battery still sucks, and the phone volume still goes off and on during calls so i have to stick to using my microphone headset.
Overall the phone runs smoother with more applications.

And your point about choices is true. It also adds complexity to the UI, which isn't a huge deal here or there, but adds up.

I updated mine this afternoon in Chicago without any problems. After the reboot, music just appeared when I went into the Media Player (instead of loading slowly) and the rest of the device seemed to behave a little better. Everything I did usually just worked a little smoother. Still some annoyances, but it's a good start! Looking forward to 1.1.

Here's the simplest answer to your question: if you at any time accepted the warning given in the preamble to all descriptions of how to enable Extras-devel or Extras-testing repository, and installed one or more apps from those repositories, you should know about it. And those are the only candidates if you've got unoptified packages installed. If in doubt, uninstall all the ones you installed from the testing and development repos.
Now, if your question is how do you know which packages are the offenders when looking through your root partition and finding large files, the dpkg -S is what you want.
dpkg -S /opt/bounce/bin/bounce
returns:
bounce
Which is the name of the package that file belongs to. Obviously this is a trivial case, but it is useful if you are browsing through your rootfs and find a big file, and want to know what package put it there.
"Bounce" is not a filename anywhere on your system, which is why it didn't return anything. "bounce" would have returned a bunch of entries, most of them (not surprising) belonging to the bounce package.
This post and the one it quoted may also be useful for you if you are trying to track down the culprits:
http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...7&postcount=19
But the easiest way to be sure, as i said, is to remove anything in testing or development.
But thank you. Now i know another command which does one or another thing and I will look in that script.
..edit

You should target it specifically with red pill ON + careful research of packages dependencies OR use 'dpkg autoremove' from X-Terminal root shell... with some luck...
