I understand in terms of applications but shouldn't core functionality be open.
It not uses a native kernel because some HW driver are released only as binary module with no sources and so changing kernel is equal to lose HW support for some components.
Unfortunately in these components is included BME which is a vital component
I don't know if using MeeGo's kernel sources will be better
MeeGo has same kernel version of Gingerbread and in theory MeeGo N900's version should have all HW drivers

Well yes in theory Meego's kernal most likely would be the better option hmmmm.. The only simple solution I can think of for this charging problem is to include an option to block Gingerbread&Nitdroid from locking if the phone is charging and to block sleeping as well if charging and to just turn off or dim the screen when not in use without the phone going into sleep mode or locking itself.

Why should smbd waste his time for writing smth which will be BME in best case?
Charging is controlled by software -- biggest Nokia's mistake. And if you try to search thru TMO, you'll see a lot of reports of problems caused by BME in Maemo.

I even have problems charging in maemo it charges on and off like mad and it doesn't matter how many times, I reflash the n900 it still happens and yes I am aware of the usb port fault but on this device in particular, I am typing from now the port has not been ripped out or fell out as of yet and I have had this device since March 2010.
Android charges better and doesn't drop it half as much so I am wondering how the bme and charging is different?
What is better in Nitroid&Gingerbread.

Argh it is a channel problem.
It sees ONLY channel 1
Now there are 12 APs active and Nitdroid (mido.fayad's version) sees only 3 APs
These APs are all on Channel 1.
I have moved my AP to channel 1 and tada nitdroid now sees it
Scan option does nothing also.

Clean up partition, install Gingerbread from here:

(using http://downloads.nitdroid.com/e-yes/ ).

Only way - rebuild kernel without fb console.

BME is not part of Gingerbread or NITDroid.
It's closed source crap from Maemo.
Any idea how to "fix" it??
