Re: [Announce] First "stable" Diablo community SSU released and call for participation

Following up late here; I don't think I've been in this forum since February.

I see that I have alarmd ("Alarm Dispatcher") disabled under ASUI Settings | Services. I...

Canola installation hosed

I first noticed a problem last week, after synching over a new set of MP3s: one album's worth of songs appeared in Canola but wouldn't play. (The other albums played fine.) Then over the weekend, I...

Re: [Announce] First "stable" Diablo community SSU released and call for participation

I do not use bootmenu, just the default boot mode. I have the Comm.SSU installed, and ASUI. When I reboot, I need to restart MCE and all the other fiddling that's necessary. Is that what's meant by...

Re: [Announce] advanced-systemui (ASUI)

1) Upgrade via App Mgr, went very slowly (because Canola was also open at the time?). After completion, system restarted; was this expected?

2) N800 was on charger at the time of the restart (same...

Re: ANNOUNCE: Diablo-Turbo first beta available

And I would know that... how? There are no dates on the files at the garage page, and posting number 1 shows a MARCH update.

I repeat: a version number is useful. "Latest" is not.

Re: Mediastreamer as controller for external renderer on N800 - any success?

One problem I've encountered since posting the above is that MediaStreamer has been simply failing to advance from one track to another in the playlist. I thought I had seen it do that while I was...

Re: ANNOUNCE: Diablo-Turbo first beta available

I would tweak the instructions a bit more to make it clear that
1) zimage is optional before instructing to download
2) gps-driverguard.deb is not needed for N800 before instructing to download
