hallo everyone,

after about 4 years later, i'm trying to use my N900 again. From beginning, one process which named "rtcom-call-ui" occupies always 90+% (displayed in Conky), it's killing my battery...

do anybody tell me how can i kill the process? (I have installed X Terminal, OS is N900-51-1), please leave me the details, i have forgot mostly all knowledge about maemo...

Thanks a lot!

rtcom-call-ui is the phone dialer app and you need it if you want to make phone calls. If you dont care about making phone calls there is probably a way to get rid of it but I dont know how.

More importantly, you need it to RECEIVE calls. If you don't require a phone functionality, you can uninstall it. Killing it won't help as it will automatically restart.

Quick reply...
It seriously eats your battery? Then something is wrong, reboot the phone. If it does not help, re-flash the phone. Oh, and maybe you need a new battery, Li-ion batteries are not infinite.
Best wishes.

Just seeing something in Conky does not a battery killer make. Just in case look in dmesg for sgx errors. If so, I found the sgx errors this is a known bug but mine seemed to (strangely) be linked to a faulty cellmodem. Best way (it seems) to kill the cell-modem on boot is commenting out:
Code:
#start on started dbus
in /etc/event.d/sscd
