Dear friends,<br />
<br />
I have just acquired the N800 and I love it. I do have a number of<br />
questions about it which are not really maemo-related, but since this list<br />
is one of well-informed N770/N800 users I thought I might at well ask here.<br />
<br />
1) Xterm: I have installed xterm and even got myself a root password (using<br />
dropbear ssh). However, this is no the Bash shell I am used to and the<br />
commands do not have man or info pages. Where can I find some documentation<br />
on this shell's usage? And one small thing: show do I scroll up numerous<br />
pages (like to examine the contents of a 'netstat' command)? BTW - when I<br />
do netstat|less I get a warning that "this terminal is not fully<br />
functional". Any ideas as to what that means?<br />
<br />
2) Batteries: Nokia's documentation says that once the batteries are charged<br />
the unit should be disconnected (same thing for my Nokia phone, BTW). So<br />
does that mean that overnight recharge is not an option? Can/should I run<br />
the unit without a battery inside when/if I can? The battery life of the<br />
unit (and of my Nokia phone) is, alas, rather short. Has anyone tried<br />
purchasing a non-Nokia battery for cheaper and possibly with a longer<br />
battery life?<br />
<br />
3) I have installed mplayer. Both the original media player and mplayer<br />
tend to make the unit freeze (with the sound track still running) has anyone<br />
come up with a solution for this<br />
<br />
4) I have installed a lot of small files on the internal 2GB card and ever<br />
since see the unit doing "refreshing" very often and for a long while. Is<br />
there any way to make this better.<br />
<br />
5) on bootup I notice (with a CPU monitoring applet) that the CPU is working<br />
at full blast. I did a "top" in xterm to see who was taking so much CPU<br />
power and I found out that the culprit is 'metalayer-c'. Any idea of who<br />
that is and why this happens?<br />
<br />
6) has anyone succeeded in installing a firewall on the N800? I could, of<br />
course, write a small script for iptables but its just not convenient to<br />
access the root account with ssh each time then run the ipables script. Any<br />
better ideas?<br />
<br />
7) is there a car charger for the N800?<br />
<br />
<br />
Ok. that's about it. Sorry for the non-maemo linked questions & many thanks<br />
for any pointers,<br />
<br />
