He said he wasn't an expert. But it was still useful. I got to use the terminal AND SSH all in one deal. Good learning for a newbie

Re: N900 alternative boot video (maemo.org one)
 

So does this ssh open up something that couldn't be done in the terminal ( if you know how to use that).

Really, I'm just asking, I don't know.

Re: N900 alternative boot video (maemo.org one)
 

vi works perfectly fine by default in x-terminal

Re: N900 alternative boot video (maemo.org one)
 

I have a problem, now I don't view anything when boot the phone, I have the default config and I check this many times:
/usr/share/hildon-welcome/media/Hands-v32-h264.avi (I have transfer the video to my PC and it works correctly)

The default.conf are in:
/etc/hildon-welcome.d/default.conf

with exactly this: (2 lines, no spaces)
[hildon-welcome]
Hands-v32-h264.avi

Someone know what happen?, thanks.

Re: N900 alternative boot video (maemo.org one)
 

Somebody (capable) should create an application for this.. I imagine it would take very less time to create, and would be a big pleasure for every noob: just browse the repositories, install the app, locate the vid, and apply. :)

Re: N900 alternative boot video (maemo.org one)
 

Maybe Prismic could add the functionality? But also become free for me for suggesting it? LOL

Re: N900 alternative boot video (maemo.org one)
 

Kino default.conf file should be like this.

[hildon-welcome]
filename=Hands-v32-h264.avi


(or your new avi name)

Re: N900 alternative boot video (maemo.org one)
 

LOL, I forgot to put "filename=" before, hehehe, I lost 2 hours of my time trying things and at the end I had to reinstall the firmware to solve it. :o

Well, at least now I can change the video without problems. :D

Thank you hcancelik.

Re: N900 alternative boot video (maemo.org one)
