I’ve been using a custom kernel for a long time, mostly because I needed several patches for the Asus M2400N and it was a lot easier to grab a ready made kernel from Tuxmobil.org. Hence, I’ve been running 2.6.9 for a long time, and had a few problems. For example, I haven’t been able to…

I flashed my Nokia 770 last year, with the latest image from Nokia Europe, marked 2005_51-13, but I’m not happy with it at all. There are some minor improvements, but on the downside I’m seeing many spurious crashes, on the order of ten crashes in the last day and a half, and I really didn’t…

My beloved Asus M2400N has started to freeze rather unpredictably. The only thing I have managed to figure out, is that it is related to running on battery power. It never happens on AC power, but when running on the battery it will almost inevitably freeze well before the battery runs out. It can be…

I hardly ever read my mail on the Nokia 770. I tried many times, sometimes forcing myself to do so to figure out why, but it just doesn’t work for me. The email application on the tablet simply doesn’t match the way I read my mail. Here are the reasons why.

I’ve had this thing for almost a month now, and I never managed to make a hyphen with the handwriting input, but today I made one by accident. Talk about the little pleasures of life. Anyway, a hyphen is made by first writing it forward and then backwards on top without lifting the stylus. Just…

I run Courier IMAP over SSL to my mail server, until now with the self signed server certificate Debian set up for me, but I’ve finally managed to create a ‘real’ server certificate following the instruction at http://milliwaysconsulting.net/support/systems/courier-ssl.html. The certificate is signed by CAcert.org.
