 My issue has been that when using WiFi interface, some web services

  all services work as expected.

One issue I had with App Manager was that I had set a proxy for my WLAN 
connection, for http connections, and left https empty. App manager 
still tried to use the empty proxy though, and failed. :/ I added a 
proxy for https too to fix. On 2g/3g where I did not use a proxy, app 
manager worked fine.

It might be your own ISP blocking SMTP port 25 to prevent spamming.   
Some provide another port for those who wish to send email while off

I can second that... most ISPs tend to block all SMTP servers except their  
own on port 25. GMail and some other services I am sure offer SMTP on port  
587. I use GMail's SMTP port on my N800 and have never had an issue  
sending mail with WiFi (besides the overly-protective county run networks  
at county buildings here that for the public block all ports besides port  
80... can't even access SSL there!).

Not in this case, fortunately. Both port 25 and 587 work (with 
authentication) on my hired server, and I use them daily from those 
connections which let me.

files listed in all lowercase by media player

2010-02-10 Thread Eric Cooper
When I transfer a media file to my SD card with a mixed-case name like
Movie, it appears in the shell and the File Manager as Movie, but
in the Media Player as movie (all lowercase).  (I haven't changed
the configuration of the SD card, so its VFAT, mounted on /media/mmc1,
with shortname=mixed.)  Is there any way to have it displayed in its
original capitalization?

It should support XMPP out of the box, looks like the Nokia Blog has
instructions already:

Re: Conversation Facebook plugin

2010-02-10 Thread Kahlil Johnson
Great althought is a bit bittersweet since now I am wondering if I
will end up with duplicated contacts now that I have the facebook
account and the XMPP-Facebook account. I know I can do a merge contact
but being over 560 contacts already, this could get pretty ugly.

Re: ?Ogg Vorbis support hw-accelerated

 Does the OGG decoder utilise the CPU's media acceleration features

I'd consider a decoder using NEON as being software too ;-)

 What battery run times do you get if continuously playing some MP3s
  and OGG Vorbis, in comparison?

Tuomas Kulve did some excellent tests:
