Hi Nelson, Im away for the weekend so I can't try anything til Sunday. But I was pinging www.google.ie as a test at the beginning from the terminal and it was working (on wifi). If i find an open wifi this weekend i' ll try it too. If that works then maybe its just my AP, but I doubt it. Thanks

If I'm not wrong the problem is that if you enable maemo-extras catalog, the information about packages is stored in the rootfs which is a very small partition. See http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=40150 and http://wiki.maemo.org/Free_up_rootfs_space for more details. Br daniel young escrib
