 I could agree with the above if it all pans out as you say.

Yes, that is of course the question. I am not sure it really works like 
described. Just applied common sense which may not be the right thing to 
do in all situations :-)

I am booting from kingston 2GB card since approx. August 2006, have swap 
on card an also switched to ext3 in beginning of 2007 and my card still 
works fine. This is of course not enough time to prove anything so only 
time will tell.

More to the point, SD cards don't give you access raw NAND flash so
you couldn't even use jffs2; it's not technically possible.  (Go ahead
and try!  :-)

 Real question I can see at this point is which FS has the smallest
 journal and the fastest response on solid state media.  BTW the #1
 reason I've lost data on ext3 systems was due to automagic fsck.
 Admittedly those systems were primarily Fedora Core2 or RHEL3.  Ext3
 may have improved since them but I'm still shy.

Shrug That hasn't been my experience, nor of most people I've talked
to.  Note that if you are losing data due to the automagic fsck,
that's just probably when you are discovering it, not when the damage
actually happened.  My guess is that you are running your ext3 systems
on flaky hardware, but that's just a guess.

Nokia SU-8W keyboard availability?

2007-07-17 Thread david . hagood
Does anybody have any information on why almost everybody who sells the
SU-8W keyboard is out of stock? Has Nokia stopped making these? Did
Godzilla eat the container ship with the latest shipment?

There are a few other BT KBs that also work with the N800.  Search the
interenettablettalk forum for some ideas.

I am not sure if you are in the US.  I had been waiting for some time
to find one here in the US.  All suppliers including Nokia had no
stock.  I finally got one on ebay.

I noticed this week that Nokiausa.com http://nokiausa.com/ appears to have
them in stock again.

This is well thought out in my opinion so congratulations to whoever is behind 
the effort.
Personally, I like the D-BUS interface which enables 3rd party applications to 
communicate with it
and the ability to turn on/off hildon

Great! Now picasaweb's slideshow feature works (AJAX based).

Does anyone know how to keep backlight on? My slideshow is nice in
fullscreen (with no toolbar), but the screen goes dark after a bit.

This is a great development for maemo.
