Interesting..why I didn't find those pages before today..thanks Meamish.

It was easy:
start Micro-B
write address bar: about:config
search keyword.URL
choose it and press enter
write adrees bar: http://frogfind.com/?q=
press enter
restart Micro-B

Remember if you click results of Frogfind, they are translated to plain text only html. So if you want see original version of result page you have to cut off start of url.

Interesting thing that Micro-B still says Google search and logo, but these cosmetic thinks and it might hard to get out.

Always use search engine outside the forum and add on the search maemo talk. Normally you find the right threads better.

Hey guys! I didn't want to open a new thread for this - or should I? I own several N900s that have been collecting dust for a while, but I always get back to them :). I've been failing to find certain commands, though! Where do you get for example
...?

EDIT:
I've already tried installing coreutils or gnu-coreutils. I don't seem to have the corresponding repos installed. I also get this message:

On all Maemo/MeeGo retail systems (i.e. not emulators, Scratchbox etc.) BusyBox replaces all core packages, to have more space. And BusyBox conflicts with their full versions.

One solution is to compile the needed things manually. They can go to /usr/local or even to custom directory (I use /opt/wunderw in my N9 packages). Then edit PATH in profile file, so your new directory is first.

Thanks for the info! I know I might be wrong here - but can you just point me towards a how-to...? Also - would I compile the tools separately or a whole package like coreutils?

BTW just saw this. Looks like you don't need to compile :D
