Re: WSOD - Who has had one?

This is not WSOD, you cannot fix WSOD without hardware repair.
I had WSOD 3 times.
To know Nokia hardware repair, is to hate Nokia hardware repair.

Re: Questions About Nokia 770

You said PDA, the 770 isn't a very good PDA.
Search WSOD, it's pretty common.
With the effort required to get any PDA function out of a 770, you'd be better off with some other device.

Re: Adblock Plus for MicroB released!

This works on the latest 2007HE on the 770 too.
You have to make sure and clear out the greasemonkey stuff first and add the chinook browser extras repo.
Slow, but works

Re: What apps/version on your 2007He and does it work?

Yes, that's it. But it's listed as Graph Plugin, I missed it before.

It's not likely, ever.
Citrix is not something you can port, it's a commercial product.

Re: User Javascript enabling on Opera

That citrix client won't work in anything but OS2005.
Flashing back that far is pretty bad, and you will still have to use an external keyboard with the citrix client.

Re: Further support for Nokia 770

If you are using OS2005, you may be able to find debian arm packages that will work.
If you are using OS2006 you will have to build it yourself or wait for someone else to build a package.
