@Rebski: This should have been a new thread! :)

Yes sorry. The rush to create a new thread results so many parallel postings that I try and resist the urge. Hence posting in the current Mer thread.

In this instance wrongly so it seems. Am I too late to correct it?

Re: [Mer] 0.13 released
 

I've got problems installing Mer on my N800:confused:

First I tried the install file link in the Documentation: No reaction
Second I tried easy-Mer: Installed fine but Extras->easy-Mer doesn't work(white screen then standard Maemo)
Third I downloaded the flashable Image: Doesn't work with the Windows flasher, I've got no Linux PC at hand

Could someone help me, please?

Edit: Never mind, I've flashed it through my netbook:D

No worries. I think most people know now. ;)

Regarding .install file my server at home crashed 3 minutes after I left for Copenhagen.. it'll be back up tomorrow. :P

Re: [Mer] 0.13 released
 

Stskeeps: is it true that Ubuntu MID have actually decided to go ahead with Mer as their upstream? Quim posted that they had in his Twitter feed.

Re: [Mer] 0.13 released
 

Well, there's two options here:

1) I'm completely delusional and putting way much too weight into it ;) even after discussing with them for quite a while and participating in their meeting remotely (I don't have recording. Wish I did.), or

2) Read the notes from the meeting at UDS (referenced in link), https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Specs/MobileMidKarmicUseMer

EDIT: They do need to spec it up more specifically and such but this is the direction they're going it seems. Do note this is a Ubuntu thing, Canonical isn't involved directly as far as I know - as in noone's getting hired and no money is involved.

What'll happen is that we cooperate with Ubuntu and they like any other Mer contributor will help making Mer better (packaging, maybe UI, etc)

It's a win-win situation, they get packages that are easier to upload to Ubuntu repositories & the Maemo platform updated, and we get more hands and having our packages cleaned up.

Re: [Mer] 0.13 released
 

I'm confused (as usual) : is 0.13 installable on 770 or not ?...

Re: [Mer] 0.13 released
 

No sorry, 0.14 only. The kernel modules package and so on never made it into 0.13 (we ran out of time). If anyone want to give us a hand with bringing those packages into OBS we are more than welcoming you (we want to adapt a system like kernel-diablo/kernel-source-diablo)
