I solved the python installation issues by reflashing and installing python *before* restoring my backups...

SImilar or related problem to conflict between Opera and Gmail notifyer

When loading Youtube page or ITT forum Opera FREEZES (on a white page) for a while. I have to STOP the loading, then RELOAD the page. Sometimes it resumes loading - very fast-, sometimes it s still frozen. Frustrating...
It does not happen with all websites. some load normally. Actually faster.

This has been addressed a few times now:

pick a new theme and apply it. If you would rather your previous theme simply go back to it. Scroll bars and other missing items will reappear.

Something hosed my 8GB SDHC card. It seemed to happed when I started UKMP. The program started to scan then crashed. Just after that my card went read-only, and a few albums and files turned to gobbledy-gook. I could not do anything to the card from linux or winXP, except copy the good stuff from it, then reformat. This did fix the issue, but kind of a pita. Also - transfer from the card was fast enough - transfer to the card was painfully slow. Has anyone noticed slower than normal transfer rates to the SDHC card?

Greetings:

Can someone send me a link to old N800 firmware.

I think I'll try to reflash the old firmware and then install Python.
I will then reflash with new firmware to see if it works.

This is giving me a headache, to much troubleshooting for users.

Regards Robert

While downloading SpotYah, pYsearch and PontMiller from http://my.opera.com/monroe to test them. PontMiller would never show up on the device. It could be a problem with the long filename ( python2.5-pontmiller_1.0.1-1_armel.deb Four tries to four different locations).

Solution : On PontMiller, I finally opened the file in the Application Manager instead of saving it to the device.

All threes Apps did perform ok after testing.

Reflash current firmware and make python the first thing you install. If you use Canola, make it the second install, it also seems sensitive.
Some people report difficulties when they use a restore. Maybe you want to skip that for the time being.
