I just used AndApp and wait for it to load after connecting to a wifi. Then tested a few apps, like dictionaries and few games. Next I will install a browser to manually install packages, I suppose just by running apk files. Not sure Android has an apt like cli for app management.

Ohh, anyone manage to increase font size in NITroid? Especially for the terminal emulator. The set font-size 9pt is so small to use it conveniently.

if your system is x64 you cant install maemo flasher, i have this problem but I deal with it using a i386 linux distribution on vmware player

Have you tried the tar package? (maemo_flasher-3.5_2.5.2.2.tar.gz -- I know it says for non-Debian OSes)I used it and just unpacked it. Works perfectly in Fedora 12.

What Windows version are you using? IIRC 64-bit versions of Windows wont work.

Will try that. Win is 64bit. But Linux ir 32bit

For anyone having trouble installing apps in android - Install 0.0.3.1 rootfs from pg84.

you can only have access for apps after installing 0.0.3.1. i have the same but dont know why i m getting "not enough space" msg. one more thing, when i go to my sd card from the menu it is showing my 32 mb internal flash as sd card. i belive thats the reason. any solutions for that?

I booted it up the first time, it seemed to work but no wifi of course. Everybody says it doesn't work till the 3rd boot or so.

Every boot after the first goes to the Android desktop, with clock, battery, and network icons on the top, nothing else. It sits there for about 2 minutes and goes to a flashing cursor for about 10 sec or so (maybe less), then blank screen.

What is going on?

Edit:
Hmmmm.

By pushing the power button and whatnot I got the desktop to reappear for brief seconds before sleep, then backspace seemed to do some sort of trick and help it work. It would switch to the console or something, and inform me that I had just covered the proximity sensor, or opened the keyboard, or whatever. But it seems to be working.

It's pretty cool.

just press ctrl button on ur key board and every thing will be fine.

Yeah, I'm having the same problem installing apps. Not enough space, it says.
