There is a thread about this. Use search before you post.

Or contact the previous owner and ask for the lock code they set.

or you could:

a) not get flamed
b) not provoke that flaming that you did get
c) get the answer you seek + several relevant comments

all just by searching the forums!

good luck, young newbian!

I'm a little confused as to what is wrong with your computer, could you define what you mean by it being "gay" please?

Guys! Be nice... He did say he's a newbie...

@philly90:

You will need a linux based machine and install something called "John the Ripper". You the need to install something called rootsh from the N900 Application Manager. Once you have done these, go read the rest of the HOWTO at URL http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...+ripper&page=3

Seriously, the search button is on the top-right corner of this webpage. You really should try that as this is a common question and we don't want too many threads asking about the same problem. Hope this helps... :)
