Ok, thanks to all of you for so much feedback... this means people is involved anyway...
I think it's time to flash back and try to be constructive... As I've admitted before, the original rant of the first mail in the thread is because of the obvious disappointment after so many months having struggled to get things working on my tablet and once realize that everything could be just broken down too easy... I think that to have your own repo of deb packages shouldn't be necessary, but the point is that now I already have mine... Besides, I think that when somenone builds a package and it becomes useful for somebody else then it transcends his/her ownership and becomes something public that needs to be protected by, for example in this case, Maemo.org... Maybe the original developer isn't interested any more in his/her own package but surely someone else is... That could be the case of kismet port... And finally, I think that Maemo maintainers and involved people shouldn't play so defensively when a problem arises... I know this is a very typical attitude in some Linux forums, but because of Nokia's hidden presence, I think Maemo's something different, more business or customer-oriented attitude, and more friendly and helpful. At least I find this ML more friendly and problem solver that the typical RTFM... And now, I'll check the new wiki<http://wiki.maemo.org/Booting_from_a_flash_card>about booting from MMC and modify it in case it doesn't work to me... By the way, I've recently learned how to build deb packages and have built a package (that works perfectly for me) to download videos of YouTube to the tablet, and another one to have a PGP secured Folder in my Desktop. Anybody could give me a hint on where to start to become a Maemo developer and get help to improve these packages?... Salut and peace in the world ;-) Sebas.
