Re: What? Bugzilla uses my email address as my ID?

Although that would be an improvement, it neglects basic security principles. It's backwards to pursue a model of least security, and then ask to justify policies that are more secure. The way...

Have you confirmed that bugs.maemo.org accepts mailinator.com addresses?

If it does, that's would be almost reasonable. I say "almost", because mail sent to mailinator addresses is public, and...

I like this idea.

Re: Maemo SDK+ installation; "couldn't download debian repository file"

I wrote a detailed wiki on this:

http://wiki.maemo.org/Maemo_SDK%2B_installation_on_Debian_%28AMD64%29

Essentially the issue is that SDK+ only works on 32bit platforms.

Re: Nokia refuses to fix wakeup bug

What folks don't realize is that this problem would be duplicated in the successor of diablo, because retutime is still the underlying component that alarmd depends on, and alarmd is not going away.

If you run the following command on the Maemo CLI, it is supposed to power off, and wake up 3.5 minutes later (give or take .5 min):

It doesn't appear to have scratchbox2 and Qt. So I may be tempted to build an image myself, starting with a 32 bit version of debian. If that turns into a project in itself, I'll go for...

Be aware that this openvpn upgrade breaks if you have it configured to kick off scripts upon connection. Perhaps rightly so for security reasons.

Re: How to schedule scripts (using alarmd?)

Since alarmd is broken, I will probably switch to cron.

The bummer is that I'll have to leave the device on all night, because cron can't boot the device, from what I hear.
