No, nothing should affect battery life while running in Maemo.

After restoring, you will have whatever kernel you had -before- restoring. If this is the same, you're fine.
If it's not, and you are restoring a backup with a -different- kernel, you'll have to reinstall the kernel manually.

It should install all needed packages. Others, like ssh-server are optional, and it says so in the package config.

Is there any reason users shouldn't post and swap backupmenu backup files? It's a lot easier to use them than to go through a normal setup process.

Of course one would have to make sure not to share personal information...

How would you separate them? You could try to delete files from the tar-file but it would result in inconsitency and system could be in any state then.

For example, you could take a newly flashed N900 that has no personal info on it and add the best programs and back it up and post the backup files.

Unfortunately, that runs into a whole bunch of copy right legal issues.

For programs freely available? Using an alternate method of putting them on your device?

Wouldn't it take longer to re-set all settings just right than to use an install script? I'm rather sure the list of installed packages can be dumped and passed to apt-get. I think there and app for that.

I'm not sure what you're saying. To install all the programs I have installed on a phone that didn't have them took (a) run backupmenu. (b) select the files to restore. (c) tell backup menu to restore them.

Where is the part about reset settings or using an install script? Maybe you were referring to some other message?
