I have 2 N900s. One that I use as my "brain prosthesis"...Music, podcasts, FMTX, books, notepads, etc.
<VulcanRidr>
The other is a spare.
<enyc>
VulcanRidr: wow =)
<enyc>
VulcanRidr: 'works' on n900 .... battery life and your particular software... may be issue
<VulcanRidr>
Which software specifically? I can see if I can work around it.
<enyc>
uerm, rather battery life as a whole is an issue
<enyc>
and (separtae to that) what software you want to use, could be issue... might need porting if maemo-specific heavy etc.
<enyc>
but general debian/devuan packages may just work =)
<VulcanRidr>
I read mostly using fbreader, panucci for podcasts, mediabox and/or simplayer for music, fuelpad and rapier for Bible reading.
<VulcanRidr>
FMTX to play media to the car radio when driving.
<enyc>
VulcanRidr: certainly, on spare n900 make sure u-boot working and test leste image on sd-card ...
<enyc>
VulcanRidr: definitely, STAY logged into channel, ask about... others do come and go here!
<VulcanRidr>
Excellent. I will do so.
<enyc>
you may find somebod will build a maemo application for leste if asked...
<VulcanRidr>
Have you run it? How does it perform compared to Maemo Fremantle?
<enyc>
(can't remember who) helped with the sync-ntp-now whatnot
<enyc>
yes, just not as serious/daily-driver/etc
<VulcanRidr>
Fair enough.
<enyc>
aiui works but battery life / power consumption can be a problme
<enyc>
also specified as alpha ... not sure when will move to (devuan Chimaera) (debian11bullseye based) base.
<VulcanRidr>
Glad to see you went with devuan. I run it on my wife's machine and on my work laptop. Personal laptop and desktop, I run FreeBSD. ZFS and boot environments are just too good to pass up.
<enyc>
also thigs like FMTX may need porting/help to get working, who knows!

VulcanRidr: Hi!
<parazyd>
The apps you mentioned we don't have yet, but often it's easy to port from fremantle if sources are available.
