Re: mmcblk0 (internal flash) problems, and worse?

This is definitely the one I came across. I *reformatted*, not re-partitioned, and then the partition seemed ok (the file system partition was then smaller than the device). At least I didn't see...

mmcblk0 (internal flash) problems, and worse?

Over the last few days, I've had my beloved N810 start acting *really* wonky.

It started out where I'd get sudden crashes (like opening the keyboard, or just picking it up). I remotely logged in,...

Re: Wifi calls in poor coverage areas possible?

Definitely check out Google voice -- I use it at work, where I have relatively poor Cellular coverage, and have Google Voice include my office number (during weekdays, working hours).....

Re: Here's a general idea of just how badly we're getting screwed

But, bizarrely -- even at google voice rates, calling a landline is $0.02/minute while calling a cell phone is $0.14/minute. That becomes obvious, then, that the "free incoming" is built into the...

Re: N900 not coming to United States anytime soon

Aw, let's just continue to whine that the carrier subsidized phone is "hobbled" to ... the carrier.

Re: Any future for the Nokia Internet Tablet? Doh! Yes!

N810: It's linux. In your pocket. 'nuff said.

Not everyone gets it. For them, the iPhone and b'berries are enough.

Re: SSH unusable with WPA2 PSK ON

? I've been using SSH (the openssh package) and WPA-PSK since the first day I got my N810 (ok, maybe it was the 2nd day) -- no problems.

Run the ssh (either to or from the N8x0) with the "-v" flag...

Re: Wow, now my N8*0 is working just like a phone.

Not sure about anyone else -- but I can't get the default agent to work through a NAT; at all. One thing I notice is that if you're relying upon STUN auto-detection, you lose. In fact, even...

Re: Podcasting: New gPodder version / MP3 woes?

Actually, I looked at Panucci -- but all it talked about were MP3s -- obviously I'm looking a quite a few "vidcasts", and a single (audio) podcast. My presumption was that it doesn't do Video. ...

Re: Podcasting: New gPodder version / MP3 woes?
