executing compiled programs outside /usr/bin (Go language on maemo N900?)
Hi, some months ago I started playing with Go on my n900. after compiling a simple HelloWorld.go file I have to move the 5.out result file to /usr/bin and chmod +x to be able to execute it and have it output Hello World !.

app manager trouble
Hello, I seem to have broken the application manager (HAM) of my n900 within 2 days of buying it. For example, when I tap 'update' or 'download', I get 'no catalogues in use' 'no updates available' Before it broke I successfully installed several packages with it, added devtools installed several packages from there. However after that I started using apt-get directly (command line), the same day I found HAM broken. I wonder if I used apt-get while HAM was running. I've installed more packages with apt-get in the subsequent 2 weeks, so am not too desperate. Is there a way to fix it? Would uninstalling installing hildon-application-manager be a bad idea?

Re: app manager trouble
Hello Brian, I cannot really help you but want to warn you not to uninstall preinstalled applications from the N900. I did that with the media player once just to find it wasn't in the repositories so I had to reflash the device to have it again.

RE: Installing MeeGo unto the SD Card (with NitDroid)
I've been kicking this around for a while and not managed to get this to work yet. From what I'm reading MeeGo just isn't working with MultiBoot yet. In may case, I have a 16 gb card. I've partitioned it into 1 2 gb vfat (for Maemo data) 2 2 gb Swap (particularly for booting Fedora) 3 2 gb Fedora 4 10 gb Extended partition The extented partition is then partitioned as 5 2 gb MeeGo 6 2 gb Mer 7 2 gb Nitroid 8 2 gb To be used later 9 2 gb To be used later I go into details about this in my blog post Configuring the Nokia #N900 Chameleon for Mer, MeeGo and Fedora http://www.orient-lodge.com/node/4029 I've never had luck booting Fedora or MeeGo, although I have chrooted to them and done minimal testing that way. I did have some luck with booting Mer using Bootmenu. Later, I upgraded to Power Kernel and Bootmenu stopped working for me. MeeGo 1.1, Partitions, Bootmenu, Kernel Power, Flasher and All That Stuff on the #N900 http://www.orient-lodge.com/node/4202 This led to some good discussions about MeeGo which lead me to believe it is not ready for dual booting and may not be ready until MeeGo 1.2. I've switched from Bootmenu to Multiboot and I have had great luck running NitDroid. See My New Nokia #N900 #Android Phone http://www.orient-lodge.com/node/4301 It is worth noting that I did not use the NitDroid autoinstaller. That will repartition your SD card. Instead, I did the steps manually, and it has worked nicely. As a final note, I updated to PR 1.3 yesterday. My Update Adventure #N900 PR 1.3 NitDroid, Titan and MeeGo http://www.orient-lodge.com/node/4309 I tried doing an Over The Air (OTA) upgrade, but that failed miserably and I had to reflash my device. Once it was reflashed, I ran one small part of my NitDroid installation, and I am now dual booting between Maemo and NitDroid. I made a few more attempts at getting MeeGo running, but without any luck. As a side note, I was told on the IRC channel that Titan refers to Power Kernel, so I've used that name in this post. Titan does work nicely with PR 1.3 and Multiboot. One of the things particularly important to me about Titan is IPv6 capabilities. I wrote about Setting up a Nokia #N900 to be an #IPv6 Enabled Web Server http://www.orient-lodge.com/node/4197 I had to reconfigure my web server after the latest flash, but it is up and running nicely over IPv6. Because of firewall issues, you can't access it over IPv4, so unless you have IPv6, you can't get to the machine. However, if you do have IPv6 check out http://n900.woodbridge.smartcampaigns.com Also, check the link to my location using Python and my battery status using PHP. Hope this helps.
