Re: Arch Linux ARM on N900

I installed Arch on my N900 but I'm getting some errors when trying to boot it. I think one problem is that I installed it in mmcblkp0p5 (not mmcblkp0p4) and even though I adjusted the u-boot menu...

Post Re: how to make N900 part of my home network?

Hmmm..

All I did is this:


Set up DNS to give my n900 the host name "n900" when connected to WIFI
Set up ssh public key authentication
Open "fish://root@n900/" in file manager (dolphin)

Re: Which Linux to use on Windows 7 64-bit as dual boot?

I was going to suggest Arch or Gentoo Linux. If you would really like to learn what is going on under the hood and if you have some time to tinker, they are great distros. I have been using...

Re: Another proof Elop is a trojan horse

Maybe I'm misinformed but I'm under the impression that a lot of GPS devices (Garmin, Magellan to name a few) use Navteq (owned by Nokia) maps.. so I wouldn't consider it irrelevant.
