Re: N900, problem with headset and headphones, tv out
Hi! I've had the same problem with one pair of headphones (though not the ones supplied with the N900). I found some notices on the web about this being an issue with the latest version of Maemo (PR 1.3), however, I'm not sure about the status of it. I am still trying to figure it out, just as you. I'll post whatever I find about it, when I have time to continue looking.

GPE calendar sync?
Hi! Just upgraded from a N770 to a N800, and are now trying to get gpe calendar to sync to evolution on a ubuntu laptop. On the laptop I have multisync 0.90, opensync 0.22, inlcuding the libopensync-gpe, and on the N800 the gpesyncd. I run gpe-calendar once, with an empty calendar on N800. Then I close gpe-calendar, run multisync on the laptop. It connects and reports that changes are sent to, and received on the N800, and then multisync reports that the sync was successful. However, from this point on gpe-calendar often reports that the database is locked. After several reboots of the N800, it sometimes works again. Anyone got ideas on this?

Re: Maemo mapper on N770
Hi! Great, hope for a solution! But: Do you know precisely which versions we are talking about? Do you mean installing MM version 2.x for OS2006 and then updating to MM version 2.x for OS2007? Or installing version 1.x for OS2006 and then updating? Actually, I've had problems installing MM version 1.x as well, because of dependency problems (needs higher version of sqlite) that installer does not solve.

Memo mapper cannot connect to GPSD server?
Hi I have a N770 (feels a bit old now) that I just reflashed, installed OS2007 hacker edition, and then tried to install Maemo mapper, one of the most important applications for me right now. I can install version 2 for OS2006, through the maemo-mapper-os2006.install (found on https://garage.maemo.org/frs/?group_id=29), and it launches. I scan for bluetooth GPS devices and it finds my Holux GPSlim236. But then it cannot connect, times out and says Error trying to connect to GPSD server. In Settings, GPSD is set to 127.0.0.1, port 2947 (default setting). Anyone got advice on how to make it work?

Memo mapper questions
Hello! I use a N770, and have started using Meamo mapper, and find this utterly marvellous! However, a few issues that I have not figured yet - and have not been able to understand from reading the docs that I found. So, with the risk of voicing too simplistic or uniformed questions: I have no points of interest available. I use google maps as well as VE. But where do I find the POI database? Secondly, is there a way to mark a place, for instance the hotel that I am staying in, as a bookmark or home, and as visible reference point on the map? I have used the mapper for exploring some cities, and would find this very useful.

Problem with maemo-mapper on N770
Hi! I have a N770 with OS2007 Hacker Edition. I decided to try the maemo mapper for a journey. I could install it, but when downloading map repositories (the default open rep was installed, and it prompted me to download repositories), it crashed, and I could not restart it. So i did apt-get --purge remove, and I deleted the dirs in the user directory: .maemo-mapper and Maps. Reinstalled maemo-mapper - but it just flashes and disappears. Anyone got advice in this situation? It feels strange that I cannot get back to the first situation, when I actually could run it for a while. Anything I could check or try?

Re: need a community board?
Hi! I very much agree - that is: both ways. I love web based forums for searching and following threads, and for not cluttering my mailbox when travelling. But also to be able to have what I want as emails when I want to. Or even (is this heresy?) as RSS, a function I like a lot.

I can only speak for myself but the last thing on earth I want is a web-based message-board. I want the messages to come to me, not me have to go to the messages. The forms-based mechanism for replies is horribly clumsy on all the ones I have used, and the repositories don't thread properly, and people fill up their messages with all kinds of fancy HTML formatting. 20 mails a day is nothing. I can filter them, killfile a thread if needed, and keep the ones I want for reference -- on *my* disk, so I can refer to them whenever, rather than relying on someone else's server. No problem in having it both ways, with the list replicated to a BB front-end like LISTSERV, with a proper searchable archive and a form for posting.

A character problem with bt-keyboard
Hi! I just installed the OS2007 hacker edition on my N770, and really like it! But... when connecting my Nokia-SU8W bt-keyboard, the @-sign is not accessible. I use a swedish layout, I set it to this in the control panel and all other characters seems to work well. But the AltGr-key, that I need to access the @-sign, gives a new line (or jumps to next input field) instead of making the @-sign available. Anyone got any ideas on what to do with this?

Promblems with memory card
Hi! I have a 1 GB memory card in my N770, but it seems to be experiencing some file system problems recently. I can no longer write to it (and not delete files) but read works ok. When I try to format it (File manager - Memory card - Format) it says Memory card in use and refuese. I have stopped the canola-conf from updating, but it does not help. I can access as root in terminal or via ssh - sudo gainroot from another computer. And via USB to the card - but can I format it through usb? Any help warmly appreciated.

Keep in mind, it may seem as I have a vested interest in OOo, see my sig, but as long as you can convert the Doc to HTML, then you should be in business using jPluck.

Problems connection to mobile phone after flashing N770
Hi! I have a N770 and a Nokia mobile phone, that used to pair easily and connect my N770 to the internet. Yesterday I flashed it with latest OS2006 image, and went throught the setup wizards, pairing with phone again and choosing mobile operator (mine is listed so I just choose it, 3 internet, Sweden). N770 and phone seems to pair nicely, but there is no connectin to internet. Anyone got advice on what to check or change? Connection is set to Packet data, access point: data.tre.se, dial-up number *99***# and username and password empty.
