Whopp-di-doo, I found a bug...
You would all have a nice patch by now, if somebody hadn't fubared the "cut" command in the 770. It has no switch to ignore consecutive delimiters and it doesn't ignore em by default. As a result I am at a loss as to how I can query the size of a file from the swapon script...

Any ideas are welcome!

du should always output the size first so cutting the first field should get you the size

du -s /PATH/TO/FILE | cut -f 1 -d " "

Good idea! But it doesn't have switches in the Nokia 770 for outputting in byte-format, only blocks...

Great news! I found a way to read the filesize so the swap auto works
I am testing the new image now and so far everything I can test seem ok.

A few quirks on the profile adjustments and cleanup but otherwise it's looking good.

It installs Vim, Xterm and LoadPlugin on startup so they can be removed if you wish. The main thing is that they are actually there so you can start using the system right away! No need to start stuffing in deb's after flashing just to get the terminal working.

I hope to get a .bsdiff out soon

Well, I wanted to test this well before releasing it.
So far it seems ok. Only thing I can't test is the external disk mounting.

The auto-install of Joe (text editor) and x-terminal works well. As does the memory monitor.

I'll diff it when I get the chance and put out a trial patch.

In order to apply the patch I need the original download (Nokia_770_SE2005_3_2005_51-13.bin). It is no longer available from Nokia.
Could somebody e-mail it to me at or let me know where i can get it?

Thank you very much.
This is a 60 MB or so File. Where do you think that you can upload such a big sized file via email or otherwise ?

Thanks for the tip.
I did find Nokia_770_3.2005.51-13.bin.
Is this the same as Nokia_770_SE2005.51-13.bin ?
