Hey guys ,

I got some good reviews for a video I made for booting up your phone:




Enjoy, and if you are looking for someone to help you out with some graphics, give me a shout.

Cheers

Raul

That video is freakin' sweet! But if I may make a humble suggestion?

The MAEMO text is kinda... flat. Any chance on making it nice and shiny like the other boot videos?

I guess I can do a render with different materials and render setting, Ill post t here when I get around that.

thanks for the input

It's awesome dude!!

chicle
what an amazingly cool video!
i wonder if the same sort of spinning logo or charging logo could be used as a busy indicator in certain places?.

if you want to get involved in an ongoing event and offer some graphics, take a look here.

AWESOME!

Now someone tell me how to install that instead of the nokia handshake?

4- go to your main PC and download a free ssh client with a graphic interface (it's much easier to use for a newbie) like winscp.
5- in your N900 launch xterminal and type: sudo gainroot
6- in x terminal type then: ifconfig
7- ifconfig will show you r ip address (of course you MUST be connected to a wireless lan with your N900 )
8- open winscp and login to this ip address.
login:root password: your passord
9- go tho /usr/share/hildon-welcom/media and copy the boot video you want.
10- ho to /etc/hildon-welcom.d/ and copy default.conf to ypur PC
11-open in your PC default.conf with notepad and modify it with the name of the new video
12- save without changing name of the file
13- replace the file .conf in N900
14- disconnect and restart N900.

That's it...

I hope to have been useful

Thank you... but I fear that's well beyond my capacity. Yet.

I'll wait till I'm a lot more competent. But I do want to see this eventually.

*boring comment about maemo.org logo that is a standalone trademark, it does not represent maemo os itself is placed here*

Nice video, Corto.

For those who just want to skip the welcome video (faster boot time), place a hash (#) in front of the filename (to comment that line out):
