Hi everyone, I have a question. (I will have many silly questions, so buckle up)
It's been quite some days that I started testing Maemo Leste... Does someone know how to take screenshots ?

And I have another question half-related to maemo leste and WPA2 Entreprise. The mobile is connecting fine to internet, but I can't do it back in Maemo (freemanlte) when it comes to WPA2 entreprise (eduroam style).

I know it has been mentionned here and there on the forum without some good solutions but I was wondering if I could ask here... so the question is : Is there a way to copy-paste the config files, or the WPA_Supplicant config file from leste to freemantle ?

So...yeah, I am still playing with it, I'm a big noob so there is no many things to do with it for now....(I almost forgot everything linux, I had to do a google search just to remember how to do a simple apt-get update). I'm still figuring out how to install and use some apps, but for now, thank you for your hard work!

Sorry I didn't use my awesome translator today , so sorry for my english!!

Maemo Leste already supports WPA2 Enterprise properly (because it uses wpa_supplicant backend). You do not need any config file on Leste.

On Fremantle, some have been able to connect to eduroam by carefully entering the options, e.g. make sure that the "Manual username" field is filled.

I don't have eduroam where I am, but the N900 can't connect to our WPA2 Enterprise network. So I use wpa_supplicant, which works beautifully. As a result, I do have a config, but you also need to remember that WPA2 Enterprise is just an 'umbrella' designation - there are various ways that the network can be configured, e.g. PEAP, TTLS, TLS, etc. So you would need to figure that out first, before you can write an appropriate config

Simplest way ... look at how Android/Windows saves the connection

Thank you for your quick reply. Yeah like I said, I have no problem with Maemo leste connecting to the Wifi...I was just wondering if one could just copy paste the config file from Leste to fremantle..I know it sounds simple...I'm a simple man But don't worry, that's not the subject!! (But thanks again for your answer)

I mostly wanted to know how I can take screenshots from the mobile.

And regarding the apps from the repository, The only one I was able to install was conky, but I had no icon in the menu, and the app did not open...

Finally, did someone think about Chroot ? I know it's not the aim of the topic, but I still have ubuntu chroot in the N900 and it works just fine, I was just wondering if it was possible with devuan too!!!

Screenshots on fremantle / N900
can be achieved the simplest way:
CTRL-SHIFT-p
and look under MyDocs/.images/Screenshots/

No idea of Leste alreafy supports it but I would guess yes.

I suppose you could try "dd if=/dev/fb0 of=~/capture.raw" or similar...

As i'd like to visit you guys on this lecture, could you provide some more info about it, tickets if necessary, location, etc. AFAIK, it will be located in Sofia Tech Park so me living near Sofia would be easy to find it. Big thanks!
There are no tickets required - you can just walk in.

We're going to roll out new n900 images really soon, you should give those new ones a try. They will have much nicer/better wifi (UI) than our old images.

apt install scrot allows you to takescreenshots using 'scrot' (command line tool)
