Buttons stop working under OS2008

So I flashed my N800 with OS2k8. I tend to lock the screen with FBreader running a lot, using the power button. After the flash, I've been having a problem with the tablet responding to the...

Re: N800 VPN Client. Cash Reward?

PPTP is bad; the control & authentication channels are outside the encryption.

L2TP is better, but by itself the protections suck (weak encryption).

Cisco's IPSec + XAUTH suffers from...

Localhost browser connections require network?

OK, so I finally got around to getting MoinMoin running on the N800. (FWIW you just needs SimpleHTTPServer, BaseHTTPServer, SocketServer, and cgi modules installed.)

twistd & moinmoin on 770/N800

I'm in the habit of using a local MoinMoin wiki for just about everything on my OS X box (via an app called MoinX). I'd love to have the same on my N800. I'd even be able to pseudo-sync the two via...

Re: trouble connecting to a WEP secure network

No such filtering enabled. One of the networks is a corporate "guest" network where such filtering would be impossible anyway.

I'm having the same problem now with my N800 on all WEP networks, despite it having worked earlier *today* on those same networks. WTF?

Re: What was wrong with your 770 when you send it for repair?

Nokia's warranty repair instructions to me were explicit: send only the unit, keep the stylus, cover, battery, and battery door (!). So now I have all these things and an N800. At least the battery...

Re: Stowaway Universal Keyboard?

Sheesh.

Devil is in the details: Click "OK" on the dialog that present the pair key *before* entering the key on the keyboard. Worked like a champ when I did it that way.

When they finally conceded to repair the thing, it had already been in their hands over 30 days. Anything that takes longer than 30 days apparently is referred to the "Executive Response Team."

Re: What was wrong with your 770 when you send it for repair?

My 770 went in for WSOD repair on 9 Nov. First they said "your fault." After a weeks of back-n-forth, they said "clerical error" and agreed to repair under warranty.

That was back on 10 Dec or...

Stowaway Universal Keyboard?

I've not yet been able to pair my Thinkoutside Stowaway Universal BT keyboard with the N800. Worked fine with bt-plugin on the 770. Am I doing something wrong?

I think a week is more than reasonable to get the concession that it's a warranty repair. I'm not asking that the device be returned to me repaired in that time frame.
