I don't run any games except for the default ones. I have 31.8 M rootfs space free. Can I install 30 or so games now, as I could with the earlier tablets?
I don't see anyone denying that the limited rootfs space causes issues. All that's been said is that blindly moving as much as possible off the rootfs will also cause issues.

As for installing things - if the apps have been optified then you should be able install lots of them. I've got 15 games and about 50 apps installed and still have 25M free on rootfs (more if I disable the extra repositories). I think the only non-standard optification I've done is to move libQtGui off to /opt, but that's only another 10M.

Where did you put file? is your phone plugged in using mass storage?

make sure you put it in root directory if using USB > mass storage
NOT documents folder

/home/user/MyDocs

unplug phone

then in xterminal

root
cd /home/user/MyDocs/
sh moveroot.sh

That's not an app - that's just replacing the default battery icons. Have a look through the MODs thread for the icons & instructions (I'm afraid there's quite a lot to read though!).

If optified, yes. There's 2G and it can be expanded at a whim with no data loss if there's a card or a PC present.

Assuming the games are correctly optified for platform and device. I have 21 games installed as we speak, not including game-like stuff like doodles and silly candle like apps. I have 32M free. And it's nice games too, like OpenTTD, hex-a-hop, etc, plus the puzzles collection from the PuTTY guy.

I think at least all the "non-image" -files should stay under /usr/share/themes/themedir -folder to make the theme to work.

Moving the entire themes directory worked like a charm for me...

Okay. But if you leave the folder /usr/share/themes there and move just the /themedir under /opt it won't work. At least it didn't for me when maemo-optify suddenly optified my themes in the way that the whole theme folder was under /opt and symlink was created under /usr/share/themes

Weird ****

Right. If you do a full symlink for /usr/share/themes to somewhere else, it will work fine. You just have to be sure to move the ENTIRE themes folder.
