Thanks, it was a problem with the level of charge of battery...
When I installed a full-charged battery it have reflashed without problems.
Sorry. I saw that the indicator shown that the battery was charging and
thought that the level of its charge was enough... I was wrong...

I did not realize that, thank you for the correct info!

Re: Troubles with reflashing n900

joerg Reisenweber — 2013-05-13T19:07:37


tHEN YOUR BATTERY IS TOO WEAK FOR FLASHING. sINCE OBVIOUSLY YOUR SYSTEM 
DOESN'T BOOT UP INTO LINUX SO IT COULD DO PROPER CHARGING, YOU SEEM TO HAVE 
RUN INTO AGE OLD BATTERY-EMPTY DEADLOCK
damn, capslock. sorry, too lazy to retype.
Charge your battery by external means!

 I try it but have no needed effect - neither u-boot loads nor flashing
starts.

I always do it but it doesn't work.

Re: Troubles with reflashing n900

joerg Reisenweber — 2013-05-13T18:27:20

That won't help since NOLO - which catches "U" for entering flashing mode - 
gets invoked *before* bootmenu.


This is correct advice

Re: Troubles with reflashing n900

Paul Hartman — 2013-05-13T18:23:16

Try to slide the keyboard "almost" open, barely enough to touch the
"U" key, but not all the way open enough for the boot menu to take
over.

Try to start flasher before plugging in USB, so it is trying instantly
when you attach the device.

Good luck :)

Troubles with reflashing n900

James Brown — 2013-05-13T17:22:39

I reflashed my n900 in the case of crashing it after installing the
latest version of CSSU Thumb, I installed the latest version of the
kernel power (including u-boot) and the latest CSSU testing.
It worked well but after restoring packeges I used earlier my device
does not load - after loading u-boot menu and choicing the kernel for
loading it writes "malformed function" and does not want to load.
I tried to reflash it but when I connect it to my PC instead reflashing
it loads u-boot menu.
What I need to do for restore my device?

Please suggest this error is because of what ?

Hi Andre,

There is nothing to add to what you said. I just noticed that it is just
newly started competitor for long existing and working well om maemo/n900
skype.... which I personally don't switch from to any other "yet another
skype like" also free service.

Thanks.

No I haven't. As you didn't describe what it is I had to visit that
website. Sounds like yet another Whatsapp style application.


If the website does not offer a version for Maemo there is no version
for Maemo. As easy as that. :)

PDF viewer stopped working

Pavel Řezníček — 2012-12-26T06:59:52

Hello everybody,

I have updated my N900 recently from testing or even devel sources. Then the PDF viewer stopped working.
It says it doesn’t have enough memory to open that file. Just by any file I try to open.
What package should I reinstall or downgrade? Or what else should I do?
Thanks.

libssl

aidy lewis — 2012-12-22T12:18:40

Hi,

I am trying to use leiningen for Clojure development through a bash
shell installed on my N900.

The error tells me that the libssl is out of date, but libssl doesn't
seem to be in a maemo repo.

Could anyone tell me how I can install libssl?

Maemo5 & WPA2 EAP TTLS+GTC

Pali Rohár — 2012-12-01T12:23:28

Hello,

I needed to connect to WiFi WPA2 network which using EAP/TTLS+GTC 
authentification. Maemo5 has for these settings chechboxes in 
Control Panel, but it does not remember password for TTLS+GTC 
authentification. It is really annoing that user must enter 
password every time.

I found which Maemo application is responsible for EAP 
authentification. It is daemon /usr/bin/eapd which is in Nokia 
non-free proprietary package osso-wlan-security. So fixing this 
bug is not possible :-(

But I found string "EAP_GTC_passcode" in that daemon, so it 
should read password from some configuration. I stored wifi GTC 
password to gconf and it worked.

So problem is that Maemo Control Panel Connections GUI does not 
have password field for TTLS+GTC authentification and eapd daemon 
does not store password automatically.

*Here is manual solution how to store password for EAP/TTLS+GTC*

1. Find gconf dir for wifi network:

This shell script will print all wifi networks with gconf dir:

for line in `gconftool --all-dirs /system/osso/connectivity/IAP`; 
do gconftool -g $line/name; echo $line; echo; done

2. Set/Change password for wifi network specified by gconf dir:

replace <dir> with gconf dir from step 1 and <password> for real

gconftool -s '<dir>/EAP_GTC_passcode' -t string '<password>'

double screen

Alexander Lunev — 2012-11-24T18:08:02

Hello everybody, excuse me for repost from here:
http://maemo.org/community/maemo-users/double_screen/
but maybe someone here not reading forum.

I'm having a problem with my N800, it starts appearing two screens
folding one on another, second screen is about 15 pixels lower than
the first. While there are two visual screens, touchscreen is working
only on one, the first one.

process list of just started system is here:

http://pastebin.com/8tYvVHiK

see pictures here:

http://imgur.com/a/FFUzb#0

Also, note that these two screens appears right after system starts
and remains till system shutdown (see horizontal line on starting and
ending screens). And there are two xterms in process list, as if it's
not just second view of system screen, but indeed two separate
processes which starts two subprocesses.

So, what is this and how do i remove second screen?

I have latest OS for this tablet and i didn't install anything that
could lead to such problem, it starts without a reason.
