Only two profiles: General & Silent? How to create more?
 
Is there any way to create new profiles on N900 ?
Besides the Silent and General, can we have others ? How ?

As of now, no. But it's hopefully being worked on.

you cant create or edit your own profile?

To be honest on previous Nokia phones, I hardly use any of the other profiles and didn't need to create new profiles, I find them confusing, they're just minor tweaks base on General.
I only use General (edit to maxed out volume) & Silent (for meetings)

I have read in Nokia specs that state customisable profiles under Personalisation?

Have you look at the User Guide to see if there are any mention about this?

Perhaps look at /home/user/.profiled/custom.ini. (For templates, look the ini files in /etc/profiled) I have a feeling you won't be able to choose it from the GUI, however.

So you'd have to use something like this:

Code:

//`pkg-config --cflags --libs profile`
 #include <libprofile.h>
int main (int argc, char** argv)
{
  if (argc > 0)
        profile_set_profile(argv[1]);
    return 0;
}

(I know, not the most amazing code in the world, but feel free to look at http://maemo.org/api_refs/5.0/5.0-final/libprofile/)

It does indicate that, but apparently it's not actually true (yet?)...

Settings -> Profiles
Scroll down.

I believe that's the customization of which the manual speaks.

Any idea what the options are, if any?
