What do you think? Which one do you recommend me for N800? Globalsat BT-359 bluetooth works for my N800, don't know if it's best in sensitivity as it's the first GPS I own. Very long battery life (much more than the N800) and charge through USB cable. Laurent ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
PhoneLink and GPE
Hello Everyone, Can anyone give me a few pointers regarding the Phonelink program https://garage.maemo.org/projects/phonelink/? It looks like exactly what I want! Does this work with any phone model with bluetooth or must I get a Nokia? I'm up for a new handset and this will determine which one. I've narrowed it down to either the Nokia 6315i or the Motorola MOTOSLVR L7c from the handsets available from my provider. If there's something else I should consider please let me know, these are the ones I get for a reduced price.

Re: New install files for N800
Florian, A couple of questions: 1. I went to the link and downloaded the files. I installed the 3.0 SDK but could not find the libmimedir-dnome1 package. I'm guessing it's in the GPE Repository but the link is broken. 2. I use the GPE PIM as my PIM. If I uninstall the existing packages will I lose my data? I have a lot of contacts and a lot of information in calendar. Regards, Nick Shaw. On Mon Apr 23 16:57 , Florian Boor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>sent: Hi, I created updated install files for the GPE bits in Graham's experimental repository. You can find them here: http://linuxtogo.org/~florian/maemo/index.html The applications seem to work, but I am aware of two issues: - You need to install the libmimedir-gnome1 package manually, it is not pulled in automatically. - It is necessary to remove all GPE packages from the old repositories before installing the new bits.

source code
Where can I find the source code for garage projects? I am looking specifically for the gpmlauncher/mplayer code that is in the garage.maemo.org/projects/mplayer. The only thing I find on that page is diff files. Is there a repository for the projects source code? tj ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
Re: bluetooth GPS receiver
fwiw... If you are buying a new gps now, you can get built-in logging with no real impact on the price. And it looks like wintec fixed the signal quality problem in their data logger: http://www.semsons.com/wiwbmu3gpsre2.html I have the wbt100 model and I like it because it can store a log that can be extracted later using gpsbabel. Tracks can be retrieved over bluetooth which should be a no-brainer (some other manufacturers still haven't figured that out and require usb for xfers). My only complaint with the wbt100 was the gps receiver was only about as good as the older sirf ii models. The update in the wbt201 should bring it up almost in parity with sirf iii devices. The gps is *tiny*. I put it in one pocket when I went snowboarding and it was pretty simple to import into google earth and play back my day on the slopes. Good fun. brad ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

I tried manually installing it through Application Manager (install from file) and it fails, e.g. Unable to install libmimedir-gnome1. I would be interested to know what the error is. I am not sure if you can get the Application Manager to tell you but if you have an Xterm with root access can you try dpkg -i file and let me know what error you get (just send it to me -- no need to bother the list)? I am currently working on the libmimedir-gnome and libsoup problems -- I hope to have updated kits some time over the weekend. By the way, if anyone hits any packaging bugs with GPE please report them in the GPE bugzilla (http://bugs.linuxtogo.org/). You will not lose your data if you uninstall GPE. However, if you are at all worried the best thing to do is to use Xterm and copy the files in the ~/.gpe directory to somewhere safe. For example: cd mkdir saved-gpe cp .gpe/* saved-gpe/ Graham ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
ssh key
How do I generate an ssh key, so that I can connect without using a password? I had hoped to be able to use OpenSSH, but when I run the installer, it says openssh isn't available. tnx jk -- Use OpenOffice.org http://www.openoffice.org ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
Re: bluetooth GPS receiver
Brad, given the price of that product, why is the Nokia GPS so much more expensive? Is it simply the Brand name or is there some material difference in GPS resolution/flexibility/performance, etc?

ssh key
The old openssh needed the red pill mode enabled to install. I noticed yesterday there was an empty package that shows up in the regular blue pill mode that pulls in the openssh server and client as a dependency. No special handling needed, very nice!
