Community SSU. Report bug Testing_one-click-install Stable_one-click-install [edit] What is it? Seamless Software Update (SSU), is the term Nokia formerly used for over-the-air updates of Maemo (generally marketed as Maemo Update as of Maemo 5). The Community Seamless Software Update (CSSU) is being developed by the Maemo community as a continuation of, and expansion on, Nokia's update support. There are two such efforts for the Maemo platform. [edit] Whom is it for? [edit] Everyone Since the release of the stable branch CSSU-S is meant to be the LongTermSupport hotspot for all N900 users/owners. Maximum compatibility for all N900 owners is CSSU primary guidance. [edit] Testers [edit] Thumbers Tired of the N900's memory bottleneck, look no further.

CSSU-Thumb is based on CSSU-Testing flavor, but uses a very low level patch to kernel to overcome the bugs in OMAP chip related to thumb/ARM mixed code. CSSU-Thumb talk.maemo.org Thread [edit] Installation "Newbie" Video Tutorial: MaeModder N900 Application created by Dany-69. Here is one brilliant application created by Dany-69. You can download it from the Maemo.Org. It’s called MaeModder and basically one can modify a whole bunch of things on your N900 with very little effort. In a way Dany-69 has made modding your N900 a lot less stressful because beforehand one would need to run a lot of scripts via the x-terminal window.

There will still be a lot of people who prefer to run scripts (myself included), but this application makes life a lot easier. I particularly like the MAG Hildon-Desktop mod. It makes the menus and scrolling of icons a whole lot smoother and the kenetic scrolling is an absolutely pleasure to use.NB: If you are running the Advanced Hildon-Desktop, you will need to uninstall it, reboot and then install the MAG Hildon-Desktop to get it to work. Another super mod is the Multidesktop. If you want to over clock your N900, it’s now really easy. There are other ways one can set up icons to match the clock frequencies.

Now this feature is available for Nokia N900 too.

Why it is useful, well it not only speeds up the process of using maps on your device, but also cuts costs on your data plan for loading the maps as you go. So it is quite useful to have the maps for the countries you use the most preloaded on your Nokia N900.

A Guide to Maemo Extras for More Nokia N900 Applications. When I was at Maemo Summit, I kept hearing the terms ‘Maemo Extras’ and ‘Extras Testing.’ As a new user to the OS, I was totally clueless! I did some digging and found out these were repositories or places where applications from the community can be found. I’ll share with you what I learned and how you can use it when you get the Nokia N900. Extras An easy way to browse and install applications from ‘Extras’ is by going to downloads.maemo.org from the Nokia N900′s web browser. You can install the apps by simply clicking on the green arrows.

You should also enable the repository in Application manager so that the N900 receives update notifications for the apps. Go into the Application manager. If it’s not there, you can manually add it: Application manager –> Application catalogs –> New Catalog name: Maemo Extras Web address: Distribution: fremantle Components: free non-free Extras-testing Extras-devel Haze plugin adds more services to IM on Nokia N900.
