Hi everybody,
is there a simple application to track website updates (not RSS) for
Maemo. It would be nice if there was an applet to do it. Or should I
just go and write my own?

Question might be somewhat naive, but does anybody know if there is any
chance of skype2 making it to N8x0 devices? It sure would be nice to be
able to utilize built-in camera...

according to original poster he was after Kismet. That is not a toy your

Yes, I was a bit stressed maybe because every semester I have the same

I only know of two ways:
1) Install Easy Debian and use OOo on the tablet

2) Use Google Docs, which can convert to PDF as well as open the

The former requires a large SD card and is probably very slow, the
latter requires an active Internet connection and

Yes. What about making red-pill mode non-persistent: on the next start

The other is for system hackers who know what they're doing. They also
get packages that are not safe to use, in case they need them to do
things the ordinary user wouldn't dream of.

No, that's impossible... The code just doesn't do it this way. Once
the Installing OS2008 Feature Upgrade progress bar is shown, the
network should no longer be needed.

Today in the morning my N800 happily announced available updates. So I
agreed to install them. At some point half way through WiFi connection
was interrupted so I've been left with packages in inconsistent state (I
assume) as my WiFi can't locate any access points anymore spinning into
infinity.
As a follow-up, I've tried:

with subsequent attempt to fetch listed uris on my desktop

Hmm, the Application manager will first download all the needed
packages, and only after that has happened will it start the update
process. So you should have all the packages somewhere.

Hi everybody,
I've noticed that some applications are locking keyboard input only to a
subset of characters which greatly simplifies input esp. if you have
numeric fields. Default action in Hildon input is to capitalize first
letter which also means - no numeric pad so I'd like to change that
I'm stuggling with rather cosmetic issue: icons for my apps on N800
(running diablo).
Namely - I can't get it (Maemo desktop) to use decent sized icons of my
app (like 48x48 etc.) it seems to be picking up only 26x26 or so. Should
I be dropping some hints in .desktop file?
