[Fwd: URGENT: project submitted to Google Summer of Code]
fyi, you don't need to be a maemo developer to propose ideas and propose yourself as mentor of next Google Summer of Code. See email below and , if you are interested, move fast. -- Quim Gil - http://maemo.org ---BeginMessage--- Now it's for real! The (long) form has been filled and now maemo is an organization candidate in http://code.google.com/soc/ . The deadline was/is TODAY and we will know if we are approved or not THIS WEDNESDAY. Now, there are still two FUNDAMENTAL pieces that are still weak and need to be strengthen NOW (and I mean *now*, not in a couple of hours). Look this: http://maemo.org/maemowiki/GoogleSoC2007 - We need more ideas. I have done my best gathering ideas discussed in this list, but you know what is still missing. Go and edit the wiki page before Google reviews it (hopefully all of them are sleeping in California now). ;) NOTE: you don't need to be an expert or to be involved in the ideas you suggest. Good ideas are simply good ideas. - We need more mentors. Yes, this is work... if we get a project for you and you agree on taking it. By now it is just a declaration of serious intentions... that may help maemo getting more projects or even get approved at all. Count and average of half an hour a day assisting a great student working on that functionality you have been missing for so long. GUARANTEED: - You won't be forced to mentor a project you dislike. - You won't be forced to keep mentoring a project if you don't have the time. - We will help and even substitute you if you are overwhelmed. Yes, we know the unexpected happen in the best houses. But we are many, we know about SoC and we can assist. -- Quim Gil - http://maemo.org ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers ---End Message--- ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

Hi Misael, first try this one - unplug your battery and then turn N800 on. Hi :) I'm just curious, what will this do? Restore the original settings or something similar?

What extra software you've installed to the device? streamer canola mapper terminal sudoku vnc mplayer gpe calendar nmap xgalaga erminig AFAIK similarly to the builtin crawler, Canola is also using inotify on the memory cards, so that could be triggering the bug on startup too (by starting to go through the card contents when the bootup process mounts it). Canola does use gnomevfs (i don't know if it uses inotify internally). BUT, canola triggers a consistency check after boot, since MMC card may be inexistent or changed. If things are still the same, it'll be just a bunch of stat() calls (one per file), not that slow. I see he has Mapper installed. By default, Mapper recommends /media/mmc1/Maps to store downloaded files and Canola ships with /media/mmc1 as media storage. This will make Canola scans every Map it found, since maps are small JPEG, it stat(), open() and parse it... :-/ You can remove /media/mmc1 from Canola and add more specialized folders, like /media/mmc1/Music (if you have that). I deleted a video from the card and then it worked fine. So it seems a bad file can stop the device booting without any hint as to what the problem might be! Is this a bug that is fixed in the next firmware, if not what should i file this against?

Request for (major) help...
Hi, I was wondering if there was anyone willing to communicate with me via private email in order that I can fully understand a few things about installing Maemo apps... I know this is a weird request -- and I couldn't offer any compensation other than my undying gratitude -- but I am stumped by a few things. Please email me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you'd be willing to spend a few minutes with me Thanks, Tim P.S. Those of you on the InternetTabletTalk forum may see a similar request... Please pardon the cross-post. --- Weblog ~ http://tim.samoff.com[1] Baby Blog ~ http://kc.samoff.com[2] Photography ~ http://www.flickr.com/photos/timsamoff[3] Music ~ http://www.adkoc.com[4] Links: -- [1] http://tim.samoff.com [2] http://kc.samoff.com [3] http://www.flickr.com/photos/timsamoff [4] http://www.adkoc.com ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

If you don't get much response to this, you might try simply posting your questions to the list. That is why it exists, and you may be surprised to find that other folks share your confusion on some points and communicating in public allows everyone to benefit from the answers.
