Re: [maemo-developers] The future of the Application installer
In article [EMAIL PROTECTED], Marius Vollmer wrote: It will very likely be implemented by canibalizing synaptic or some other existing graphical package manager. Have you looked at what the Ubuntu guys are doing? They want to have a cross between synaptic, their current Application Install, and gnomefiles.org The main aim is for people to be able to see better descriptions, screenshots and user reviews before they choose to install.

In article [EMAIL PROTECTED], Jan Wildeboer wrote: That's simple ;-) Crackjack on the /etc/passwd file ;-) Which is why I say the root password is simple. :-) But the user password is elsewhere (passwd- ?) and they way that the busybox su works, and the way that sudo is configured, mean that there's no immediately obvious way for the root password to be of much help.

Plucker runs but I can't seem to open any books. Also, I thought I saw mention that the knoppix-installer should work with this CD?

And if Nokia really didn't intend this thing to ever be in host mode, there might not be a charge pump fitted. But most of this can be worked around.
