Re: Boot bora as root

Hi, I tried to change debian devkit settings, but I still not working... :( Any new suggestion? The error still the same: dns resolve the repository.maemo.org but apt-get doesn't download the updates: Err http://repository.maemo.org bora/free Packages 404 Not Found [IP: 200.216.69.249 80] Ign http://repository.maemo.org bora/free Release Err http://repository.maemo.org bora/non-free Packages 404 Not Found [IP: 200.216.69.249 80] Ign http://repository.maemo.org bora/non-free Release Hit http://repository.maemo.org bora/free Sources Hit http://repository.maemo.org bora/free Release Failed to fetch http://repository.maemo.org/dists/bora/free/binary-arm/Packages.gz 404 Not Found [IP: 200.216.69.249 80] Failed to fetch http://repository.maemo.org/dists/bora/non-free/binary-arm/Packages.gz 404 Not Found [IP: 200.216.69.249 80] Reading Package Lists...

Please, let me know if I am wrong! Ah, no. That's not the repository being wrong, it's your target that is broken (most likely). Apt gets the architechture from dpkg, and apparently it's reporting arm although it should be armel. You can check this with dpkg-architecture. So, it's a debian devkit problem, but as I don't know much about that, I'm not sure about the cause... -- Kalle Vahlman, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Powered by http://movial.fi Interesting stuff at http://syslog.movial.fi ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
Re: 419 scams using my Maemo Bugzilla email address
Quim Gil wrote: Hi, did you get more scams of these? Apparently that was a dark weekend in terms of spam, everybody got lots from many places. In the meantime we have also improved a couple of details that might have let spambots to sniff some email addresses. If you still find holes please submit them as bugs. Hi Quim I continued to receive further spam on my Maemo Bugzilla for a few days after my original post on this topic, but they have since stopped - yay! Thanks for tightening up Maemo bugzilla, if I receive any further spam I'll open a bug but of course my email address is probably on a 419 list of email addresses so any future 419 spam I receive may be due to the original harvesting and not due to any new Bugzilla exploits. Lets hope they didn't get too many addresses first time around! :) ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

Obviously I don't know but I think it's highly likely that it's not Nokia's to release--the Conexant people (who have never really been nice to open source developers--their devkit for the ivtv MPEG cards common in MythTV setups is $10,000) clammed up on the Prism54 developers several years ago when their SoftMAC chips starting turning up in the wild. There has been work on reverse engineering these, called islsm, and someone had some code working a little bit on a 770, but nothing concrete at the moment. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGMXpjhuM+Z62a52oRAhR6AKD4tasT/BBsdVaGvi4/vgVqZvuudQCfe27k fNg+UVjjwpKcJj0G7PolOI4= =0ONq -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
