Yes, I definitely would like to beta test it. Nevertheless I'm not sure, if my desktop linux experience will be enough. But I will try it Thanks in advance!

I cannot find which repository it came from (I have many repo's set up), the only information as to where it came from is that it is maintained by guus@debian.org and another similar package by collin@betaversion.net.

There are actually 2 packages in my app manager for the tools... one named: wirelesstools 28-1 (96kB) and the other wireless-tools 28-1 (0.1mB), apparantely they are pretty close to being the same.

Sorry, but that is all of the info I can give you... if come across them again I'll post the URL

Ok, I've found one of them. It is included in http://repository.maemo.org/
But it is only visible when you are in red pill mode... Seems I've to learn many things... Thanks anyway!

I don't know. The version compiled by linuxbox on 07-01-2007 does run, but it says: "No driver interfaces build into wpa_supplicant."
I guess that the driver is the biggest problem. Does anybody know if the generic linux wlan driver "wext" will work with the wlan adapter built in the N800?

Strange, I've heard people saying google docs and other Ajax based websites don't work on N800 (or any other internet tablet for that matter). Are you sure that they work?

Minimo as well as the new Firefox based Microbrowser that recently became available allows the N800 to utilize a lot of Web 2.0ish sites. Microbrowser is pretty far from being release ready, though and wouldn't recommend it to anyone without a high frustration tolerance quotient.

And it's not that all Ajax doesn't work, it's more that _some_ Ajax sites don't work. gmail works, for example (standard mode, not just basic html). Anyway, that is Opera. As the previous poster said, even more stuff works in MicroB and to some degree minimo.
