are any of you humans using the extrootfs setup by wolfram? there was the one user who had an issue with it when flashing this latest image, and I just want to make sure it isn't going to break my whole setup. i've customized quite a few things using xterm, so it would be a big hassle to do it all by hand again. also, isn't having root mode always on kind of risky? yes i understand the tablet is not always on, nor does it sit around where anyone can get physical access to it, but isn't that just bad form if you care about security?

Maybe I am really dumb, but I just looked for the windows installer version/windows "wizard" on the Nokia site (as someone mentioned here), and I am not seeing it in the support area. The Nokia site still has the 12/05 version listed.

Root does not work right out of the box.

the shift key stuck problem used to be only limited to password fields on webpages. Now, it's on every field on webpages. Now at least I can develop a habit of hitting the shift key, pressing the letter I want, then pressing the shift key again. Has anyone had a chance to try the new handwriting recognition? I was able to train it in record time. I have yet to try it out again though. I'm positive that with the overall speedups, we'll see some improvements to the recognition accuracy. Has anyone else noticed that sometimes things will just freeze up for a bit if you accidentally drag the pen somewhere you shouldn't? The good thing is, that when something freezes up like that, its not affecting the whole tablet, just the current app.

In Mark's defense. It doesn't look like the US site has caught up yet.

You know, I can't believe they released an OS that broke the clock. I have to set my location to London, UK, to get it to display the correct time, and I live in the U.S.A., in the Eastern Time Zone.

Truly Craptastic!

Somebody call Microsoft!

There's a better way - I don't even use the shift key any more. I use the "click on letter and drag up" method of capitalizing letters or accessing shift symbols. In fact, I think I'll replace the shift key with something else - I haven't tried xmodmap, but I will...

If the clock app you're all referring to is the one that sits up top by the connection/battery icons, then try installing one of the different versions. I don't use this because on the Dec 30 version of the 2005 OS, I had an offset of several hours as well. It's not the new version, I believe it's the clock app.

If it's the desktop clock, that's just plain f*#$ed.
