Re: [maemo-users] Re: Added AP - now Nokia770 does not boot up anymore
something like a n770-image of my non-booting device (is this possible and if yes how), maybe nokia developers are interested in investigating this issue. Well if nokia is not interested investigating this issue I don't have a problem with it ... I'll just flash my Nokia770 now. lg Clemens lg Clemens ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users -- Pedro A.

Re: [maemo-users] usb-storage.ko for the Nokia
Hello folks, I tried to follow this thread, but I'm not sure, if I fully understood everything. - Does this mean, I can connect and use my self powered 400GB hard drive on my 770? - Does it also mean, I can use my USB stick on my 770? Would I need a powered USB hub for this purpose? Best regards, Marc Bob Lees wrote the following on 11.04.2006 22:39: Thanks Larry. I must have missed that bit about using sysctl.

On Wed, 12 Apr 2006, Igor Stoppa did have cause to say: to make it simple, even if it can act as master, it requires to be powered, like a gadget. So you need something like a modified or special hub (somebody posted a couple of monts ago about a german webshop selling this sort of hub) that can feed power to both sides. Therefore, unless your HD can act as a power source (unlikely, imho, but check its specs) you still need that sort of hub. Alternately, I built something like this with about $5 worth of parts (plus a 9V battery): http://thoughtfix.blogspot.com/2006/01/usb-power-injector-2.html Added a switch and LED, threw it in (of course) an altoids tin. (Gotta redo part of it and get a better switch, the one I got is unnecessarily ugly and in the way. Seemed like a nice retro sort of design at ratshack, not so much when I got it home.) ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
Re: [maemo-users] Maemopad+: Illegal Instruction
yours is the very first report on this subject, so it might just be you(tm) any other details on the error message? On 4/12/06, Andrew Barr [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I installed the sqlite3 3.2.7 and maemopadplus 0.18a debs available on the Maemo wiki to my Nokia 770. Maemopad+ does not start, and if I run: run-standalone.sh /var/lib/install/usr/bin/maemopadplus in an X terminal I get an Illegal Instruction error. Is anyone successfully running this program or is there a problem with the .deb?

Re: [maemo-users] Maemopad+: Illegal Instruction
any other details on the error message? Yes, actually--right before it terminates with Illegal Instruction (AFAIK, this is a fatal signal--like Segmentation Fault--so something is seriously wrong) it prints this: osso_initialize() WARNING: if the system bus activated this program, Libosso does not connect to the session bus! this part is normal, afaik everybody gets this. I'm not sure what the proper command-line invocation for Maemo applications is--I know it's not the usual. I ran it like this: run-standalone.sh /var/lib/install/usr/bin/maemopadplus this one and the usual /var/lib/install/usr/bin/maemopadplus (without the run-standalone.sh part) works for me. and honestly I don't know what's going on with the illegal instruction (SIGILL, value 4) thing. asked in #maemo just about now. It looks like a great application, by the way, I'd like to try taking notes with it. It struck me the other day my 770 might just work perfectly for computerized notes. thanks, I hope we can find a solution. -- Kemal ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
