FatPhil | OK, another n900's died (very weird death, this one - only the keyboard has failed, but alas that makes it unusable), so time to pull another rando 2nd-hand one out of the stash I've been accumulating. | 16:11 |
---|---|---|
FatPhil | the bugger doesn't even have all my normal stuff installed (simple stuff like ssh), and package manager is unsurprisingly pointing to non-existent repos | 16:12 |
FatPhil | is it possible to just use the normal apt-* command line tools, I hate using a gui when editing configs and command-lines I'm familiar with will do the job. | 16:13 |
FatPhil | I remember someone saying "always use the application manager, nokia tweaked something so you get bitten in the arse if you don't" | 16:14 |
FatPhil | it's all so far back in history now. | 16:14 |
KotCzarny | you should be ok for simple install/remove | 16:14 |
KotCzarny | it's the 'upgrade' one that can be tricky | 16:14 |
FatPhil | my recollection was something like icons embedded in the package lists, so the package manager could show something pretty to waste screen real-estate. | 16:16 |
FatPhil | oooh, gawd, I don't seem to have gainroot on this new one. | 16:17 |
FatPhil | and without ssh, I can't ssh root@localhost | 16:18 |
_nmdv | do you guys know of any good source of batteries for the n900? | 16:40 |
sicelo | polarcell, i guess | 16:41 |
bencoh | definitely polarcell | 16:47 |
_nmdv | thank you | 16:50 |
sunshavi | FatPhil: send the files by bluetooth to the phone | 17:42 |
sunshavi | Yes. polarcell works pretty fine | 17:42 |
