| - | ===== Nokia N900 for an admin ===== | ||
| - | Provides ssh and vnc. Nice features, gps, wlan, sip. My hints here are focused on getting the device to fill my admin-needs. I want to listen to the podcasts from http:// | ||
| - | * pro: when buying this you actually get root without having to break in or something (hi iphone-slaves..)! | ||
| - | * pro: has a keyboard | ||
| - | * pro: contains complete linux-box, think of encrypted homedir, mobile notesbook with revisioncontrol, | ||
| - | * cons: heavier than android phones (but still lighter than my Nokia E90) | ||
| - | * pro: many videoformats out of the box supported | ||
| - | * pro: One of the things i really appreaciate is to use approaches well known from linuxworld to solve problems. Want the N900 act as wlan-station and NAT traffic to internet for other computers? Loading iptables-kernelmodules, | ||
| - | ===== comparison n900 vs. desire/ | ||
| - | Wondering if you should get an N900 or an Android-phone? | ||
| - | * pro android: much bigger base of contributors | ||
| - | * pro android: you have better chances of getting newer releases of android to run on your device - if you buy the right one, widely spread like G1, nexus 1, htc desire. Vendors of android-phones as well as nokia have no intention to support newer major-releases for their phones. | ||
| - | * pro n900: root by default | ||
| - | * pro n900: recent discussion on what phones are nice for using ssh: [[http:// | ||
| - | ===== first things ===== | ||
| - | * terminal is part of the default installation, | ||
| - | * how to get the pipe-sign: press the upper 2 of the left-most keys | ||
| - | * to get root use [[http:// | ||
| - | * datatransfers with linux: | ||
| - | * bluetooth network works, ofcourse also usb-storage - but makes the files inaccessable for the n900 while shared | ||
| - | * i use an ad-hoc network and mount the n900-filesystem via sshfs onto my linux-laptop - but not media-transfers like sounds | ||
| - | * ipv6: | ||
| - | * for this you need to install a kernel with the required functions, i.e. http:// | ||
| - | * after installation of that kernel the n900 grabs a ipv6-adress from my wlan where linux-radvd advertises my sixxs-subnet. The n900-browser did only ipv4-access for me, but the firefox from easydebian works fine with v6: dancing turtle on kame.net! | ||
| - | * https:// | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== applications ===== | ||
| - | * many apps available, some already ' | ||
| - | * vncviewer, openssh server/ | ||
| - | * emulators: bochs (x86 emu), scummvm, dosbox (run dos software), pearpc (there is a video showing mac osx 10.3 running on this), emus for maeme/c64, psx4all emulates playstation | ||
| - | * amiga emulation: | ||
| - | * 'Extra Decoders Support' | ||
| - | * x11vnc: install it and access the n900-screen via ' | ||
| - | * http:// | ||
| - | * mailing: | ||
| - | * mails can be synced with google-mail ([[http:// | ||
| - | * access mails from your own server via imaps, see [[http:// | ||
| - | * japanese input: http:// | ||
| - | * games: activate extras-devel, | ||
| - | * even more apps: EasyDebian | ||
| - | * install this to get a 4GB file-image, inside a complete debian with many more applications | ||
| - | * openoffice/ | ||
| - | * http:// | ||
| - | * dont forget to reboot the n900 after installation of the 4gb debian-image | ||
| - | * alternate syncing with google-calendar-accounts: | ||
| - | * browsers: | ||
| - | * the internal browser is quite usable with the adblock plugin | ||
| - | * opera10 runs on maemo | ||
| - | ===== N900 for routing/ | ||
| - | * **unsing wifi:** The idea is to have other devices/ | ||
| - | * the current wlan-driver has no code to work as AP-point, ADhoc should work thou | ||
| - | * the default kernel is missing iptables-kernel modules, kernels providing this can be installed from repos | ||
| - | |||
| - | * **using usb:** After connecting linux-computer and n900 via usb-cable select 'pc suite' as operationmode on the n900 | ||
| - | * Now i.e. on gnome the n900 can be configured and used as modem. | ||
| - | * Here on debian loading of modules cdc_phonet and cdc_ether is triggered and ' | ||
| - | < | ||
| - | apt-get install wvdial | ||
| - | cat >/ | ||
| - | [Dialer Defaults] | ||
| - | Modem = / | ||
| - | Phone = *99# | ||
| - | Username = t-mobile | ||
| - | Password = t-mobile | ||
| - | Dial Command = ATDT | ||
| - | Baud = 460800 | ||
| - | Init1 = AT+COPS=0 | ||
| - | Init2 = AT+CGDCONT=1," | ||
| - | # Init2 = AT+CGDCONT=1," | ||
| - | EOT | ||
| - | wvdial | ||
| - | </ | ||
| - | * **using bluetooth: | ||
| - | ===== snippets ===== | ||
| - | * accessing the cameras: | ||
| - | < | ||
| - | mplayer tv:// -tv device=/ | ||
| - | mplayer tv:// -tv device=/ | ||

| - | ===== other OSs on N900 ===== | ||
| - | * http:// | ||
| - | * http:// | ||
| - | * android runs: | ||
| - | * http:// | ||
| - | * windows binaries: | ||
| - | * one can run qemu (to emulate the x86 arch) and inside of it wine | ||
| - | * also whole windows 3.11 runs on qemu | ||
| - | * http:// | ||
| - | * megoo: This runs, at least the nongraphical core part. Megoo is currently developed on the n900 but will not be officially released and supported. There is not much reasoning for Nokia to do this as maemo is already a working system for the n900 hardware. | ||
