Ogg-Music sounds distorted with various audio players
Hello, I have tried a number of different audio players (KMplayer, UKMP, Kilikali and even YouAmp) and all had the same problem: Ogg files (most are mono 44,1 KHz with low bit rates, about 35-40 kbit/s) sound distorted with them. It is a bit like a smooth overdrive. The funny thing is, that the build in media player (Nokias) doesn't have this problem. I didn't want to use it, because it gets slow with a huge number of .ogg files. An other problem is, that Nokias media player now scans also all audio files of the build-in map application, which are also ogg files. Canola doesn't find any ogg file.

Re: pipe character on n810
You can remap the n810's built-in hardware keyboard and replace the
yen or euro symbol with the pipe | symbol.
Edit the /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/nokia_vndr/rx-44 file.
Change this...
key { [ m, M, euro, euro ] };
To this...
key { [ m, M, bar, bar ] };
Do a hard reset. Pipe | is now Fn-m.
I found the above info by googling. URL available on request.
Finding | on the n800's virtual keyboard is a little tricky, too.
First select Caps (second row down on your far lefthand side) and
then select !e (third row down on your far righthand side)
http://sillyblog.net/images/screenshot_20080114_3.png
Then select Symbols (top row, second closest to your far lefthand
side) and then select | (see URL below)
http://sillyblog.net/images/screenshot_20080211.png
It's above the copyright symbol, next to pi.

I think Evince will read ODF files, and I seem to remember a port of that being done to Maemo a while ago. An AbiWord port is in private beta now and will be opened up further soon. This should provide such support. Does it save in ODT now? And if so, is it possible to make it the default format? AbiWord has had ODT save and open support for quite some time now. This is a plugin and so unless we do something unpleasant or something I don't know how to do with the packaging, you'll have an AbiWord plugins package too. If you fully understand the risks (that is, that saving in a different format by default - while still working on the document - is very risky and may mean data loss or features not working) of working in ODT instead of in ABW then save-as as ODT when finished, you can manually edit a settings file to make the change. This is intentionally difficult because the risk is great. Please search the AbiWord mailing list archives for a more thorough discussion.

Re: Flashing without usb port
del pes wrote: Is tehere any way to flash n800 without a usb connection? My usb port has broken and I would like to install os2008... Some friends proposed the possibility via bluetooth or SD card but I haven't found any informarion. What do you think? Yes, you can flash safely everything except bootloader, which may be enough for getting OS2008 running. You need to extract firmware .bin image via commandline Nokia (linux) flasher (flasher-3.0 -u -F fwname.bin) and then flash kernel, initfs and rootfs images separately via mtd-utils or kernel and initfs flasher here http://fanoush.wz.cz/maemo/ . But first you need to boot from mmc so you can reflash rootfs. Of course you can't flash it while you booted from it at the same time. Or check also http://www.nopcode.org/0x/ this may flash .bin firmware as is without extracting it (haven't tried). But still you need to boot from mmc first or at least use bootmenu and boot to usb network recovery mode. I guess static build of 0x would be useful for this. Then you could mount mmc card with firmware and flash device via 0x in telnet or ssh session when logged in over usb. So to sum it up - it is possible but it needs a lot of hacking so it is definitely not for linux newbies. Also bad thing is that when you make one mistake you end up with device that does not boot and have no way to fix it.

Re: Nokia N800 as wifi router
If you don't want to recompile for NAT support, is an old fashioned proxy is good enough? You should be able to use the package Privoxy as a socks5 proxy server to share the connection. By default it only accepts connections on localhost, but modifying the config file should be easy enough. In addition to setting up the DUN from the terminal, you'd have to run the wifi in peer mode or run your laptop's wifi in AP mode. Then you'd have to fiddle with manually configuring the IP addresses and gateways, as well as setup your laptop web browser and other apps to use the proxy server on your N800. --Paul On Feb 11, 2008 2:56 PM, Martin Grimme [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: There is no NAT support in the standard Nokia kernel.
