Re: How Can I Tell I'm Connected to the Network?

This doesn't help you if you're not using wlan :)

Frethop, check out libconic. There's a DBUS call you can make that will report back what you're connected to (if anything). I'll try to get you a...

Re: U.S. developers get go-ahead to buy N810, sort of

N810 received today. Been getting compliments all day at work from my WM6 and iPhone toting colleagues.

Re: U.S. developers get go-ahead to buy N810, sort of

The saga finally ends: new e-mail, new update, worked like some type of charm.

Had to call in and do all sorts of talking to get them to ship it to my office and not my home. Yay billing address!

Re: Anyone successful using DUN with Samsung T519 & T-Mobile?

Well, working on your laptop is good. I'd look up an Ubuntu/Debian/Fedora tethering guide for that phone, if you can find one: alternatively, try using an Ubuntu live CD (makes testing MUCH less...

Re: Can't add page to the wiki / making the Wiki more useful

Thoughts on titles:

Titles shouldn't have a category prefix: category pages solve that.

If it's a list, call it a list.

If it's a howto, call it a howto.

If both can get to 192.168.1.1 after a clean reflash, it's almost certainly the router. Both 770s are running the same revision of the OS, I take it.

Re: Map app. for directions work offline?

OS2008's map application, once you install the maps from the internet, shouldn't require a connection for computing routes: however, it is a pay service.

Re: best internet tablet

Your requirements are pretty modest, actually.

I'd go with either the N810, because you get the keyboard for rapid text entry and the best browser, or the N770, because the coveron/off is...

Why, particularly, VLC? Where does MPlayer fall short? (I've got my own answers, but I'm interested in others.)
