Re: Browser optimizing?

I think the unacknowledged nub of this thread is right there in the opening post: experiencing the iPhone turns the N8xx browser experience into a painfully slow slog. (I've got an iPod Touch myself,...

Re: iPod Touch (threads merged)

Hmm, this thread seems to have run out of gas after nearly 500 posts... but at the risk of being called a fanboy by Benson, I'm pretty close to switching from my N800 to an iPod Touch 16G. My N800...

Re: How do I run OpenSSH?

Makes sense. I have to admit I've always used BT or Gmail or SD/USB because SSH always seems mind-numbingly complex for a spoiled-rotten end-user like me, and despite the crystal-clear advice in this...

Re: How do I run OpenSSH?

Why not just use Bluetooth file transfer to move files back and forth?

I also use https:// Gmail, or an SD card//USB gadget. All three seem like secure, easy ways to do Mac-N800 transfers

Re: My life on my N800... so close to perfect it hurts

My N800 is equally essential and beloved. But I think it's naive to expect the plarform to survive with only a faster processor. Nokia, I fear, is squandering its lead in the tablet race, and it will...

Re: Theme: New Windows XP Theme

The dearth of cool new themes, apart from the hideously disruptive Vista theme (still available and still wrecking setups) and this adaptation from an OS that gives me PTSD nightmares, is a...

Re: Vista Theme takes over and won't uninstall

Well, having concluded that my poor N800 has been possessed by a Microsoft-esque demon of some kind (not to mention that creepy-sounding dependency problem), i've backed up, reflashed Diablo, and am...

Re: Vista Theme takes over and won't uninstall

The LCARS thread solution was to reflash (sob!)

Re: Vista Theme takes over and won't uninstall

I really want to avoid re-flashing if I possibly can. I too had the same problem with the Star Trek LCARS theme before I re-flashed with the new Diablo version of the OS a while back, but it was less...

Re: Vista Theme takes over and won't uninstall

I'm fuming about the problem so I missed the irony/satire factor (I left Windows and its evil ways in the dust a long time ago, by the way). :rolleyes:

Unhappy Vista Theme takes over and won't uninstall

I recently downloaded the Vista theme 1.0 (see https://garage.maemo.org/projects/vista-n800/) on my N800 running Diablo, tried it out, decided I didn't like it, and returned to using my other...

Re: iGo Stowaway Ultra-Slim Bluetooth Keyboard

It's non-obvious to get them paired but once you get the hang of it they'll hook up reliably. The Stowaway and the N800 are a way cool text entry team, so don't give up.

Re: Greasemonkey broken in Diablo?

Weirdly (happily) Greasemonkey kicked in again when I booted up the N800 and opened the MicroB browser this morning, and is working fine for the first time under Diablo.

None of my Greasemonkey scripts appear to be functioning since I upgraded to Diablo. Are other users having the same problem? Does anyone know who's maintaining Greasemonkey for Maemo?

Re: Replacement Stylus Availability (N800)

Re: Red Pill mode - How to?

Doh! An extra space (via the auto-spell function of the N800 keyboard) was the problem. Color me dopey! Got back into blue no problem.
