Re: [maemo-users] Flash to 2006 trouble
Cooking! I took my 770 to another part of my LAN and tried it on two other access points: a Belkin and a Motorola. Both worked! They allowed pings, SSH into the 770, and apt-get update. With a real keyboard and big display, I got everything else straightened out in pretty short order. Got all the myriad repositories installed in my /etc/apt/sources.list. Installed doom. Couldn't figure out how to use dropbear ssh client, so I installed OpenSSH which worked well, both server and client. Re-installed OSSO-Term, which then worked for the first time; with repositories, it loaded some dependencies. In short, EVERYTHING works as hoped/expected. All this due to an apparent incompatibility between the 770 and my DLink DL-514 wireless router (being used only as an access point). Is there a compatibility list somewhere that I should post to? Given this information, can anyone guess what is wrong between the DLink and the 770? To re-state the problem: with the 770 and the DL, browsing worked, but apt-get update, ping, and ssh did not. The DL has given no such trouble on numerous laptops. My current (minor) hang up is trying to invoke esc and ctrl keys. Any help on that? Poking around the Maemo file structure, I didn't find a syslog; is there such? I have a 2gig memory card on the way and look forward to loading it up. Can anyone give me any guidance on adding radio stations to the radio playing feature? Thanks for all patience, suggestions, and considerations! -- Willie, ONWARD!

RE: [maemo-users] Flash to 2006 trouble
Hi, About the internet radio station thing, I asked as well. 1) You have to invoke the Audio player from the internet radio home applet by the middle button. 2) Hit the menu item, Track Add stream and input the web address. Actually, the best way to add the stream is click it from the browser for the web link, if it is proper posted ShoutCast audio.

See the Application Catalog 2006 on maemo.org As far as I can tell, all packages that should install from files on the memory card, fail. Here are some examples: maemo-games-startup_0.1.7_armel.deb bash-m_3.1_armel.deb mc_4.6.1-2_armel.deb The failure message: Unable to install. Incompatible package Here is one that DID install! dropbear_0.48-0.1_armel.deb But, I still can't ssh into my 770. I wonder if I need to reboot to get the ssh daemon running? I have not been able to find the oss-term files to attempt a file install; the Maemo ApplicationCatalog2006 gives only repository links, not download links. I was able to get Osso Xterm from the repository listed there installed, I had trouble with Osso Xterm (advanced) though I don't remember any more if it was a dependency problem or the Unable to install. Incompatible package. After I had Osso xterm installed and dropbear, I got my network working and added the repositories to the sources.list. I used apt-get to install packages from this time on and I did not get the incompatible packages any more. But I remember there was a discussion recently on the maemo-devel list about that topic...

Sadly, when selected, the X Terminal spends a long while loading and then.. nothing. That is weired. I did that recently and it worked well...I just clicked on the entry under Extras. No good idea what to do next, having a terminal is somehow basic. Anybody else? Well, a bit more progress: 1) I flashed back to Nokia_770_SE2005_5_2006_13_7.bin, which worked fine. Got information from my DHCP server, used that for internet access, allowed internet browsing 2) Flashed back to SU-18_2006SE_1.2006~PR_F5_MR0_ARM.bin, which (this time) had internet access through my LAN. I have to conclude that at least some of my prior trouble was caused by a bad flash. BUT, after installing files from the memory card, I still have the X Terminal failing to start. I wonder if I should have installed both those curses packages: ncurses-base_5.4-4_all.deb libncurses5_5.4-4_armel.deb After installing dropbear_0.48-0.1_armel.deb I still do not have ssh access to the 770. I still have not gotten the ApplicationsCatalog2006 thing to work. Maybe that's a cockpit error. I go to ApplicationManagerToolsApplicationCatalog and try to select one or both of the tableteer URLs. New seems to not do what I want; it requires me to type in a URL. What SHOULD I be doing to get one or more repositories specified here? Is there some documentation that I've failed to find? I REALLY didn't expect this stuff to be so troublesome. -- Willie, ONWARD!

[maemo-users] Flash to 2006 trouble
I just flashed my 770 to the new version. It seemed to go well. But... I find now I can't get an internet connection. Connection manager tells me I'm connected to my wireless access point. Other computers using that access point work fine. The 770 worked fine immediately before the flash. The connection manager seems to have gotten the correct gateway, DNS, and IP from my DHCP server.
