Controlling Bluetooth DUN with upstart on the n900: Part 2
As I mentioned in a quick update to my old post; I got a report of DUN not auto starting reliably, if at all. I did some digging and the cause is that the /var/run/sdp socket created by bluetoothd and needed by sdptool is not present when bluetooth-dun runs.

This article of Maemo 6 Service Framework continues the series of “A Peek to Maemo 6 UI Framework” articles. There are older articles parts I, II, and III if you haven’t read them yet. The Maemo 6 UI Framework is quite large (almost 100 000 lines of c++ code) therefore I want to introduce larger [...]

[PyQt4 for Maemo] PyQt 4.6.2
As some of you have already noticed, PyQt is back after a long update hiatus. PyQt has a new version (4.6.2) available in extras-devel of both Diablo and Fremantle. It also has a new port maintainer (yours truly), so expect updates after PyQt releases. To install the basic core+gui combo, just type: apt-get install python2.5-qt4-gui This particular release is linked against Qt 4.5 shipped in the SDK, but will work with Qt 4.6 just as well (the libqt4-maemo5-* packages). Happy hacking !
[RAW Image Viewer for Maemo] New release of MRAWViewer
I've just released a new version of MRAWViewer: v 1.1-1 is now in extras-devel as well as in the download section of the project homepage. There are some improvements and new features; among the others: - zoom in/out using volume keys - larger image details layer - last image opened is stored using gconf and automatically loaded upon next startup - support for device orientation Latest version in extras-testing is still 1.0-maemo7 which is pretty stable and usable, but lacks all of the new functionalities.

N900 pyramid, and sadly some of them didn’t arrive yet
I recorded quite a bit video footage at Maemo Summit 2009 which was held in Amsterdam, Netherlands. I did not have presentation there (because my proposal did not get approved (clutter app development)), but I recorded what the others were talking about, the people attending, the happenings around the Maemo summit 2009 and the place, Amsterdam.
Nokia is still running internal tests on the Ovi Store for the Nokia N900 before it opens for the public, but that doesn’t stop the Maemo community from finding a way to gain access. I wouldn’t recommend it, but I followed the instructions to install some of the apps on my Nokia N900.
The Nokia N900 has been spotted on several site ads taking up a lot of screenspace. To name a few, there’s Mashable, Boy Genius Report, Boing Boing, and probably many others. Just a few days ago, we saw the Nokia N900 highlighted on the Xbox dashboard. I can’t remember another Nokia device getting this much ad slots.
I think it’s a great idea to expose this device to many people who might not heard of it yet. Seen the Nokia N900 in your favorite sites lately? Let us know!

Our community is getting bigger each day, we have a lot of new members at talk.maemo.org, but our IRC channel are also getting a lot of new users. I remember the times when we had less than 200 members at #maemo, nowadays in some periods of the day we usually have around ~500 users there.
After 4 weeks from ordering Nokia N900 device arrived at my place. Now I have one week to check is everything working and if not then request RMA from Nokia.
If you are trying to think of another reason to get the new Nokia N900 (my Guide should help), then just feast your eyes on the T-Mobile HSPA+ network testing that Kevin Tofel conducted a couple of days ago. Using the Nokia N900 he was able to experience 7.09 Mbps downloads and 1.15 Mbps uploads and the N900 didn’t melt in his hands. T-Mobile is rolling out their network upgrades and it looks to me like the 7.2 Mbps HSPA network is up in my area where I am regularly seeing something around 2 Mbps download speeds on the N900.

I try to talk about Nokia during our mobile podcast when there is something going on and in MobileTechRoundup show #192 I was able to talk about Nokia’s 2010 plans and the recent Smartphone Round Robin event where I shared all about the N97 mini, N86 8MP, and N900. Kevin also has a Nokia N900 in hand and talked a bit about his experiences with the device.
Feel free to let me know if you have ideas to discuss on future MoTR podcasts and maybe we will start up a podcast here on Nokia Experts in 2010.
