I certainly isn't on my end. I ended up getting the firmware from the torrent and I have been trying to install Canola2 for a day now and contantly getting these errors still. As others have mentioned on the list, the problems seem to come from the repository server not sending back a proper http error code but rather sends back some html with a message which apt dutifully caches for the package transaction and the result is installation brokenness. I have opened a new bugzilla for the repository situation: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2635 Feel free to vote/add info. Laurent Doesn't look like anyone is going to fix this problem until everyone returns from vacation, either after Christmas or worst case, after New Year. This means the situation will have been allowed to continue without official comment or any apparent attempt to resolve it for between 8 and 14 days! I wonder how many N8x0's will be given as gifts this Christmas, and how many recipients will be disappointed by the constant inability to download new software? What a great first experience this is going to be! I'm sure that more than a few devices will be returned as unwanted gifts as a result of this poor end user experience. As for Canola, why did the iNDT guys bust a gut to get their software out there? Hardly anyone can now download it - that's a crying shame for all their hard work and effort, only to be undermined by poor management resourcing decisions back in Finland. Please maemo Nokia, in future don't *ever* release another firmware update without ensuring adequate support is on-site and available during the first week following release. This situation must never be allowed to happen again. I know that's going to be tough to organise and may upset some of your people, but these are the sacrifices that employees of real businesses have to make when rolling out new software. In my world, if this situation had been allowed to happen I'd be out of a job. ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

Re: help!? my N810 seems dead(ish)
Ah yes, the fragile charger cable.. I think my charger lasted no longer than a month before it stopped working. Possibly due to the wear and tear of bringing it with me to and from work in a pocket every day, but really that shouldn't be a problem? I used the N800 a _lot_ so I didn't have time to deal with return services, and just bought a new one in the nearest phone shop. The exact same model, which I now leave at home as much as possible.. A few days after that, I had figured out that the problem was in the cable, no more than a few cm from the charger. Snipped off the charger and spliced the good end with a USB cable - Tada, instant DIY combined USB charger and data cable :) Works well, though it seems that the voltage or current delivered by USB isn't quite as high as the real charger. Sometimes, when the battery is really low, this makes the N800 refuse to charge, so I still need to bring the real charger when traveling or using the N800 for critical applications. -- Jesper Cheetah [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

Summary; anyone made this work? Wireshark says that Garnet is attempting to connect to my PC on tcp/14238. Netstat says that pilot-csd is listening on udp/14237.
