Troubles with reflashing n900

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?

PDF viewer stopped working

<div>
<p>Hello everybody,
<br><br>I have updated my N900 recently from testing or even devel sources. Then the PDF viewer stopped working.
<br>It says it doesn&rsquo;t have enough memory to open that file. Just by any file I try to open.
<br>What package should I reinstall or downgrade? Or what else should I do?
<br>Thanks.

libssl

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The error tells me that the libssl is out of date, but libssl doesn't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

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

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.

slattach on N900 to create SLIP interface with NetBSD host

Interestingly N900 seems to have slip kernel module and commands like
slattach to create a SLIP interface.

Is this usable to create a USB network with other end being a SLIP
interface. (In my case the other end is a NetBSD host.)

Which tty device to use as argument to slattach?

If I use ttyS* I get input/output error.

Mayuresh.
