Sluggish performance on my N800
Hi guys, I seem to be having a few problems with my N800 (flashed to second most recent OS2008) Recently (probably after doing a complete update on the software) it seems to be running really slowly after a while. A reboot is required to get performance back again. It seems to affect network access and/or browsing most of all. When this happens, a lot of cpu is being used by "OMAP McSPI" process - sometimes well over 50%. Anyone tell me why this might be? Anyone else seeing this and found a way around it?

IIRC, the File Manager has some sort of repair option in one of the menus, that probably invokes dosfsck behind the scenes. (There's also the option of going hardcore and running dosfck as root from a terminal, but its user interface is a bit silly. Not recommended.)

SyncEvolution would support it, but the Evolution Data Server backend on Maemo doesn't. Besides, there is no GUI either. The error above during listing databases can be ignored, but synchronizing memos has to be disabled in the configuration. If you use 0.7, then follow the normal setup instructions [1] plus the Maemo specific remarks [2]. > Where is a good step by step description? I don't found one... I have to admit that the setup procedure is unnecessarily complex and on top of that, the Maemo specific remarks are probably too easy to overlook. 0.8 will considerably simplify the setup procedure. If you want to, please try that version instead; see [3]. As a stop-gap measure I have extended the "Getting Started" page with a pointer to the additional information.

Actually I installed it again and started it: ~ $ syncevolution address books: <> (file:///home/user/.osso-abook/db) calendars: Personal (file:///home/user/.evolution/calendar/local/system) memos: 15:25:16 GMT +0200 [ERROR] - list: unable to access calendars: failure ~ $ ls -all /home/user/.evolution/calendar/local/system/calendar.ics -rw-r--r--1 user users 110 Feb 20 18:02 /home/user/.evolution/calendar/local/system/calendar.ics Are the permissions set right? I really would use your program, because it's a good way to sync the osso-adresses with my desktop or scheduleworld account. But I'm not able to get it working. Where is a good step by step description? I don't found one... Btw. for dates I use my own webdav space publishing my n800 calendar or subscribing my online calendar i use together with thunderbird and lightning. It's no real sync but working on a central calendar file and good enough for me. Unfortunately I'm not a programmer, but I hope I could help testing the software.

I keep toying with the idea of linking SyncEvolution to the GPE databases in addition to the Dates/Contacts databases that it already supports on Maemo. SyncEvolution works fine with ScheduleWorld and is designed to work with different database backends, so this shouldn't be too difficult, but I just don't find the time.

The private G cals seem to work fine in my experience, but the 'public G calendar' of my son's youth soccer team, hosted at my google site, has undergone several "burps" development in the past couple weeks, which do indeed mess up Thunderbird's Lightning (calendar) extension and it's plug in. During these 'burps', you can't connect to them within Google or via outside programs/applets. Then, a couple hours or day later, everything returns to 'normal'. I suspect G Cal is battling with some sort of security issue. It's likely that the other G PIMs are undergoing similar development issues. For the most part, it would seem calendars are less critical (aka less liability issues) than personal contact info, hence that may explain why GCal may be leading the way in G PIM development. Once these issues are dealt with for GCal, the other G PIMs are likely to get finished up quickly.
