First off... There are 3 commands, not 4. The last two lines are all one command line (see below)

The error you're getting from typing root means you do not have rootsh (aka gainroot) installed. You need to install that first from the app manager before any of the apt-get command line stuff will work.

Once you do that, the apt-get update should go off to several sites and update package lists. You need to be on-line (preferably wifi) to do all of the apt-get commands, as they all go talk to repositories and download information from them.

Finally, you may have to run apt-get with the --reinstall option. The three lines (spaced out more this time) are:
Code:
root

apt-get update

apt-get install --reinstall kernel-power kernel-power-modules kernel-power-settings kernel-power-flasher

Your package lists are not updating. You have an old package list, and it's causing problems. It appears your device is not properly on the network, or your local network is blocking maemo.org AND nokia.com. Make sure you're properly connected to the network and can actually browse to downloads.maemo.nokia.com and try the update command again.

Hi woody. What do I need to correct this on my WRT6010N router. Net browsing is fine!

I am behined an SPI firewall but I have no port forwarding setup. I do have filter Anonymous requests & IDENT (port 113) enabled.

Other than my N900 being in a MAC address filter list & DHCP set no other settings set!

EDIT: is it possible that N900 App-AutoDisconnect is causing this problem! Is set to 2G & auto disconnect GPRS & WIFI after 2:30.

Is this playing about. But wlan is to be used when app requests internet connection.

Does x-term rely on the built-in hildon desktop application manager having the correct packages.The default repos from factory are there extras-devel isn't in that list, I added extras-devel to the fapman application manager.

But i have just tried doing update through the application manager GUI & it does say no update available.

I am going to disable them & switch phone off then on again.

Ok. here is a list of the standard app manager catalogues

Nokia applications
https://downloads.maemo.nokia.com/fremantle/ssu/apps

Nokia System Software Updates
https://downloads.maemo.nokia.com/fremantle/ssu/mr0

Ovi
https://downloads.maemo.nokia.com/fremantle1.2/ovi/

maemo.org
http://repository.maemo.nokia.com/extras/

As i say extras-devel was only added to the Fapman.
Do you think there is anything wrong in these URLs?

Fapman catalogues

fremantle ssu apps
https://downloads.maemo.nokia.com/fremantle/ssu/apps/

fremantle ssu mr0
https://downloads.maemo.nokia.com/fremantle/ssu/mr0/

fremantle1.2 ovi
https://downloads.maemo.nokia.com/fremantle1.2/ovi/

extras
http://repository.maemo.org.com/extras/

extras-devel
[url]http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/[url]

These are the catalogues fapman. Anything wrong with the catalogues for both app managers?

Do us all a favour though, after you grab v46 from -devel disable -devel before it all goes horriblytitsup.
is power46 ok with cssu? and will battery life and performance be improved just by using v46?

That's good question. I want to know if the cssu - the nokia firmware & soft updates are incompatible with power46 kernel???

i'm using cssu and it's running great but feel an extra kick would make it even better, i don't want to mess it up by using v46, would v42 be better? i've heard v46 is stable, but why is it in extras-dev?
