Any problems with 3rd party software like Morpho QuickPanorama version 1.0.0 ?
Sorry for all those questions - maybe you can put them (plus
answers) into your FAQ?
Any answers to my questions?
Perhaps anybody else knows beside eugene.panich?

No problems at all. I'm using BlessN900, Morpho Quick Panorama, stock camera application and Nokia Panorama among others that also use the camera without any issue.

Hi.
No way for me to use A Better Camera: it crashes everytime, I can't select file option in tools, and often it makes N900 freeze: the only way to pass through is to reboot the phone!
I tried to remove --purge and reinstall: same issue.

eugene,
Could you please mention where the original firmware is placed?
What happen if you reflash and not unistall first? What would be the firmware you'll be having in the device?
Basically, I'm mostly interested if the firmware is persistent to reflash and how to check what version my device is running.
Thank you.

I'll only install BlessN900 if these questions are clarified.

He is not answering because your question is ******ed and makes no sense. There is no camera 'firmware' as such. This is just a driver. When you uninstall, the original driver is retrieved from the repository again.

And yes: I read threads like
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=39091&page=11
But I thought there is also a firmware issue if eugene talks about
firmware here:
"In spite of the fact, that BlessN900 modifies camera firmware..."

Re: Firmware:
Bless and it's commercial brother ABC do not replace the standard camera. Is that what you mean? This camera does not alter the firmware. In my experience, anyway. However, to use it (and F-Camera) you need to install the F-Camera drivers appropriate to your kernel (1.0.7-1 for most and 1.0.7-2 for PK v0.46 onwards).
When you remove Bless or ABC, you can remove these drivers too, so long as you don't have F-Cam installed.
Also, remember to do a dpkg purge when removing software if you want it off altogether.
Re: Panorama s/w:
Other users do not seem to have a problem with using both Bless and either Nokia's or Morpho's.
Just checked the TMO link posted - most amused because I'd forgotten I'd posted on there on a closely related issue! (#109)
HTH
Edit - forgot to look at the info page:
Yes, on the info page it says the firmware is altered. I believe it is more a case of altering the way it works, rather than altering the firmware itself. A camera analogy would be to put a red filter over the lens would give red photos but the camera itself is the same.
If you are still unsure about the comments on the Almalence website, why not wing them an email and post back if the answer contradicts any of this...
