Re: Fixing USB port, before and after it is to late. (All info in one Thread) (See POST #1)

Why do all these mobile phone repair sites look sketchy as hell :confused:

I may consider it though - I really want my USB port fixing and there's not a chance in hell I'm doing it myself.

Re: [REQUEST] Porting of "Popcorn Time" to Maemo/Meego/Sailfish

For what it's worth, Popcorn-Time is based around an application called peerflix: https://github.com/mafintosh/peerflix

so maybe it'd be worth building a more native app around this? :D

Re: [Announce] CSSU stable release

This worked, thanks a lot both of you! :)

I have extras-testing and -devel, I temporarily disabled those and the update went through fine (Something I saw on the wiki page you linked).

Re: Fixing USB port, before and after it is to late. (All info in one Thread) (See POST #1)

Re: Lilypond for n900?

Just following up my last post - It seems Lilypond has far more dependencies than just Ghostscript, this will need a bit more work!

Re: Lilypond for n900?

Thanks for the reply - In case you're interested, LilyPond is similar in use to the document Typesetter LaTeX, except it's primarily for music scores. It's a great piece of kit :)

I'll be trying...

Re: Thinking of grabbing an N900, anything I should look out for?

Wikiwide - that's exactly the sort of thing I'm scared of! However you say to ask to see pictures of the device. What sort of thing should I be looking for in the pictures? Or would it be as obvious...
