Re: Maemo highlights over the years

Making my first ever voip call a few hours after the first version of Gizmo Project for the 770 was released was extremely exciting, and I recall being very impressed with the audio quality.

Re: ******** Bingo app - Name change?

I find Venomrush offensive. Seriously, puritanical attitudes like this can give bad press to the Maemo open source community.

Re: What is your religion?

I was pleased to see that the vote before mine pushed the combined total of Linux + No Religion over 50% (now 46 of 90 votes). Way to keep it real, ITT!

Re: Nokia is porting Ubuntu to ARM

You're right, I can't blame Nokia for unofficial packages' dependency problems; but can't I blame the lack of a real distro?

Unrar is in the non-free and multiverse sections of Debian and Ubuntu,...

Re: Nokia is porting Ubuntu to ARM

I think you're probably right about Nokia thinking that way, but imo Nokia is horribly wrong. It would be easy for an attacker to target an individual user with a link to a malicious PDF, or to...

Re: I really miss evince

Where can I get unrar? Evince is "not installable" due to unrar being unavailable currently.

I just reloaded the extras repo again to be sure, and it is not there.

Re: Nokia is porting Ubuntu to ARM

It is all actually EABI (armel) even though they say "arm" in the arch field and the .deb filenames.... They plan to make different versions for different arm chips, instead of having one big...

Re: Asus EEE reviewed by C|Net

Me too! I think that most SD slots actually are, as long as the OS has support for it.

Re: Asus EEE reviewed by C|Net

The triple-E's three USB2 ports are also a big selling point for me - in addition to being able to easily add the lacking bluetooth and GPS hardware, you can plug in a pocket HDD with hundreds of GB!...

Re: FM transmitter (for in-car listening)

Well, given that the linuxdevices.com article also says:

I don't think they've got their facts right (there are zero SD slots in N810, and one miniSD).

But the other interesting tidbit in there...

Re: So will you buy the N810?

Hell no, I won't. That keyboard looks like it will be slower to use than the virtual one. The lack of SD slots is incredible. The price is too high. The screen is still unprotected. The camera's...

Re: Can I access media on a NAS?

The NSLU2 is $80 and works like a charm. Mine runs debian and serves DAAP, UPNP, and NFS. There are lots of howtos on the nslu2-linux wiki, making this a very good NAS to buy.
