Problem with SSH
Hi, folks. I'm having a problem with SSH server. When I type from my 770: ssh -X [EMAIL PROTECTED], connection between them is perfect, and window application (wine winword, a weird way to read .doc files) was cleanly displayed on the 770. I could read .doc files located at the Linux PC server. But when I try the reverse, that is I type from my Linux PC: ssh -X [EMAIL PROTECTED], connection with the 770 server is ok. But then I type for example 'oggplay' and oggplay window is displayed on the 770 server, not on the Linux PC client. I think I've correctly configured both ssh and sshd config files ok, in both servers 770 and linux pc, setting the X11forwarding yes. May anybody help on this? The question is: why can I run X-window applications from the PC on the 770, and not X-window applications from the 770 on the PC? ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

There appears to be a trick to it: if you hold the power button too short, it won't come up; if you hold it too long, it won't power on either. Sometimes it seemed that I had to plug in a charger to get it to see the power button presses, and I usually attributed that to an empty battery. I will try this. When it happens, I have tried various times: short and long, but I will try just right next time :) Scientific experiments show that I was talking nonsense about holding the power button too long. My 770 boots up fine even if I don't release the power button. I remember some occasions when I held the power button, the screen blinked up with the Nokia logo, and then turned to black again. No idea why that happened. Low battery? There are times when the device works fine, but this happens with relatie frequency if I am not careful. Not a problem when I am near a power source, but a problem if I am travelling. Marius Gedminas -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.

You would need a small program on your 770 to update the dyndns IP every time you connect. Debian had a bunch of these packaged, it shouldn't be too difficult to port one.

I've installed and run it to get easy access to my 770 via a Web browser. The problem I've got is that every time I get an Internet connection (via wifi or phone) my IP address changes. Incoming connection is rather not the cause of the change.You didn't mention how do you get addresses.

The problem is that I must update that index.html every time I connect my 770 in order to have a correct IP address. You have ip problem. And looks you have two web pages, one on desktop, one on 770. One of them is overfluous. Take this scenario: you have router that gives ip address to the box that asks for it. 770 asks and gets new address for every 43200 seconds or similar. You should know address range of that router. Fire up nmap and get the result from it. nmap -p 80 192.168.1.0/24 | pipe The pipe means you have to use grep or whatever you like to see the line with positive match. That line gives you ip address of your 770. Little cut command and you could get rid off un-necessary particules. All in pipes. Then use ajax to dinamicaly change the page or put it in command line, like lynx $ADDRESS Cron could do it a regular interval. Or your 770 has no power or memory and reboots and gets new address whenever it happens. Is there any way to automate the process via a script? Could anybody help me with the script? Is there a simpler way to achieve what I need? You could change the way your router sees boxen. But dhcp is fine for home usage.

n800 availability in Hungary
Dear All/Nokia, Is there any way to buy N800 in Hungary with an invoice for my Hungarian company and possibly with a Hungarian guarantee ? I am a happy user ( unfortunately not developer because of the lack of time ) of a Nokia 770. I'd like to buy N800, but it is still not available in Hungary. My 770 was bought through a friend of mine in Europe therefore I couldn't get either the Hungarian guarantee or VAT reinbursment. Buying a toy this way ( without an invoice ) is expensive, and provides no motivation to create applications for the Hungarian market. Officially Nokia Hungary has been promising the 770 availability since April 2006, and is still not fulfilled, and they do promise the n800 too for this coming April but I have serious doubts. I didn't find any webshop to sell this device for customers with Hungarian credit card and shipment destination. Maybe Ferenc can answer my question :-) Thanks in advance, -- Csaba Parádi ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

Probably do so first for small improvements or bits with design or way to do which is easy to describe without too much ambiguity in a short text. As long as the bugzilla is unassigned, it is a clear indication that no one at Nokia is working on it so no risk of duplicate work.

Re: Help with thttpd
Thank you, Zoran. I'll try to implement your ideas. As Marius said, dynamic dns is a good solution. I've just opened an account at dyndns site. I've installed ddclient for my desktop pc. Now comes the big problem. I must implement Zoran's idea to get my 770 automatically sending its IP to dyndns server. 770 gets its IP from a phone connection. This means that my phone company changes its IP every time I connect the device to the net. I've got no experience with scripts, but I'll do my best, and maybe it'll be the first of a long list :) It would be easier if there was a fine package of ddclient. But I suppose that binaries available at dyndns are not useful for 770, am I right? 2007/2/18, Zoran Kolic [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I've installed and run it to get easy access to my 770 via a Web browser.

That's great. I thought vncviewer was slower than sshX. I'll try it as well. What do you use as vnc server? X11vnc?

It works (when low latency) but applications are not usable because they do not handle well (read: not at all) the input methods of the N800. If you launch xterm you won't be able to type anything in for example. The vncviewer port does a great job on input (and has no problem with latencies).
