Re: [WIP] Producing Qwerty OtherHalf --order counter: 48/100

It could also serve as a good starting...

Re: Can anyone tell me what is the function of X-terminal application in N900?

X-Terminal is the main reason why I chose N900 to be my next phone over other, symbian/winmo/android-powered, smartphones. :)

Re: N900 Hardware

That would make the costs of producing a cell phone tremendously higher, with little to none benefit.

Re: N900: JTAG or serial console over USB?

Re: Java for Maemo 5

Java SE.
Java ME - java used in dumb-phones.
Having Jazelle supported would also be nice - it's a feature of some ARM cpus to execute java code directly (at least parts of it).

Re: multitouch on N900

How the touchpad reacts is mostly because of drivers/software. Linux drivers for synaptics touchpads can do multitouch on most of the touchpads.

Re: New shiping date is 03/11?

N900: JTAG or serial console over USB?

Does the N900 provide a JTAG or a serial console over USB?
It'd be very helpful for fixing stuff if one screws-up with partitioning the mtd device or uploading the ubifs.

Re: Did your N900 ship today continued

I have a 1.2GHz armv5tejl device that's working as my router/NAS. It's very capable i/o-wise, but as for general computing it's not that impressive.

Re: maemo 4 port to 5800

User-mode linux is just a userland process. There are no drivers in it to talk with the host hardware. Not to mention that it's *very* slow (like 10% of the native speed, or so)

Re: N900 + Stylus = Pen Tablet for Photoshop?

As crazy as it may sound, that could be possible with either usbip [1] (if the touchscreen is an usb device) or a cuse [2] hack

Re: Did your N900 ship today continued

So... could it be that 22th October will be the release-date for those who pre-ordered early? That'd confirm (at least partially) the info from my source about the release date.
