pennywise: Try going back to stock kernel (or overclocked power kernel perhaps) and see what happens! Maybe the camera will work again.

Like they've stated here, it's a beta and probably you shouldn't expect too much support on this (yet).
About your package problems it does look like your kernal power package has been shot somehow. I would suggest you to uninstall that first using the kernel power deinstaller in the application menu.

Download all packages there and dpkg -i them, no step by step tuts since it is after all... for power users.

I've asked you this a few times, yet I need to ask you again.

Please stop distributing GPLed binaries without corresponding source. How do you want to manage a whole distribution when you can't do this simple thing.

Again, so it will be clear:

Don't.

Distribute.

GPL.

binaries.

without.

source.

Why the **** do you always point out faults in my threads? Yet you don't give a crap about others?
Take for example:
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=65221

Anyways, I was two hours late for bed, you know... cause some people have a life/are students, I didn't even change debian/changelog or control, but I'm sure you don't care about anything except being an *******.

I'll make a new package today, take down the old one and upload sources.

.

trying to deinstalling kernel power from the application menu also gave an error:
"error during deinstallation. Could not install Nokia kernel"

Take that as a compliment. I was interested in your work (as I was interested in your previous work), I wanted to download the source, to see what you did. Surprisingly, there was no source.

I am not interested in the subject of the thread you linked to, therefore I don't know if the source is available.

Great. Make that a habit - upload source and binary together.
I know you do not do this out of malice, but being sloppy is a bad habit for a programmer and even worse for an organiser.

Sorry if I was an ******* then :)

I do this since uploading 70+MBs on a 5MB connection takes time, and it was midnight on a school night.
As for the SSU, it wasn't set up to build from sources so only binaries were built back then, anyways, that's off topic here.

Why not upload it as a patch ?

I think a TV tuner would be cool, but transcoded shows with the adverts cut out is better.

Okay, plugging in a touchscreen would be cool, I could make my own 'terminal mode' in my car. Also, an arduino would open the door to many other sensors and devices



Here's why I think it's cool:

You are somewhere not near a computer, some guy has something on a USB flash drive that you need/want. you keep your cables in the car (I do anyways). so now you can copy stuff over!

hello,
I have a problem. after installing the program I deleted it without rebooting the device first. I had the normal kerneversion pr 1.3 and now my n900 is in a reboot-loop. what can I do??

Reflash kernel.
