You would need to copy control.maemo-bora to control, but I think there might still be some packages missing, such as libwpeditor-plus-dev. We'll be putting some work in getting it to run on bora too, will get back on this.

Internet connection via mobile phone
Hi everybody: I'm truly happy about how my little 770 connects to Internet via my Nokia mobile phone. It's really easy, transparent and fast... I've got a bit OFF-TOPIC question about that: I've installed Debian in my laptop (just because Debian is installed in my 770, and I like very much how it works)... Now I would like to do the same with my laptop: I would like it to connect to Internet via my Nokia mobile phone, just like 770 does. As both of them are Debian systems, is there a way to copy one configuration into the other system? What are the minimal packages that I should install in my Debian laptop in order to work as good as my 770? Salut, Sebas. ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
"airplane mode" for traveling
It looks like American Airlines, at least, disallows anything that transmits intentionally. From their policy at [1]: "Devices with transmitting capabilities may only be used if the transmit capability is turned off and can be verified by a flight attendant" and more specifically about something that's likely to use Bluetooth these days (but who knows how long ago they wrote their policy): "During flight, never use ...a cordless computer mouse" So no specific mention of Bluetooth, but they're within a hair's breadth of it. -- Scott [1] http://www.aa.com/aa/i18nForward.do?p=/travelInformation/duringFlight/onboardTechnology.jsp&anchorEvent=false ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
