The next thing is for you to download the latest firmware from:

http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/nokia_N900.php

and then try to follow the steps for the MAC.

Don't be shy to "thank" me when you're done

Mate, you are hilarious, but I don't own a MAC and haven't got a clue as to what the MAC alternative is for Internet Explorer and I am sure Esther is clever enough to understand what I meant.

Merry Christmas to you too.

!!!!! I suggest you don't reflash yet !!!!!!

Ok; there's obviously something wrong with you conversations program, and yes, reflashing probably helps, BUT you probably don't need to do it! A reflash isn't always the best solution!!!

I suggest you try a less drastic solution first: try deleting the conversations database (i copied the instructions from this post):

just remove
Code:
/home/user/.rtcom-eventlogger/el.db
and see if problem disappears along with conversations.
(you might need to recreate the file, with command)
Code:
touch /home/user/.rtcom-eventlogger/el.db
Quick question though: have you ever used X Terminal before? If not you probably don't get these instructions, so here is a more extensive explanation

Noob-friendly instructions:
Open X Terminal. (by clicking one the icon in your menu)
A white screen with black letters will appear.
type:
Code:
rm /home/user/.rtcom-eventlogger/el.db
and press enter.
The cursor will just go to the next line, and he database will be removed (you will lose all your current messages)
If you get an error, come back here and ask for help again (it's possible that you need to be root to perform the action, but i'm not sure. Anyway i'm not going to explain this now, only if you get an error)
Now type
Code:
touch /home/user/.rtcom-eventlogger/el.db
and press enter again.
This will create an empty conversations database.
Exit X Terminal.

Hopefully your problem is solved by this. It's much easier than reflashing and much more convinient!

Yeaa I had the same problem

After I ran the command "rm -rf .rtcom-eventlogger"

I installed Glogarchive and dropped(deleted) and started a new event archive and that did it for me
