[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] 770 display failure workaround

[From: David D. Hagood]

This reminds me of a Computer Stupidities at Rinkworks.com:

     *  Tech Support: "Sir, something has burned within your power supply."
     * Customer: "I bet that there is some command that I can put into 
the AUTOEXEC.BAT that will take care of this."
     * Tech Support: "There is nothing that software can do to help you 
with this problem."
     * Customer: "I know that there is something that I can put 
in...some command...maybe it should go into the CONFIG.SYS."

Minutes later:

     * Tech Support: "Ok, I am not supposed to tell anyone this but 
there is a hidden command in some versions of DOS that you can use. I 
want you to edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT and add the last line as 
C:\DOS\NOSMOKE and reboot your computer."

Pause.

     * Customer: "It is still smoking."
     * Tech Support: "I guess you'll need to call Microsoft and ask them 
for a patch for the NOSMOKE.EXE."

Four hours later, he calls back.

     * Tech Support: "Hello sir, how is your computer?"
     * Customer: "I called Microsoft and they said that my power supply 
is incompatible with their NOSMOKE.EXE and that I need to get a new one. 
I was wondering when I can have that done?"
