Hi all, I got my Nokia 770 a few days ago and was having trouble connecting to Wifi. Tech support told me to shut down, remove the battery, and restart. This was annoying, but it worked. While online, I installed a few apps (xterm, ssh, GAIM, etc.), and tried setting my path in /home/user/.profile to include the install directory, as well as \bin and . I didn't include \sbin, but my change to .profile didn't seem to have any effect anyway. The next day I had the wifi problem again, so I removed the battery and tried to restart. Now it fails to boot. The Nokia screen (not the hands, just the Nokia name) comes up and the progress bar starts moving, but at a certain (apparently random) point, the screen flashes, and the progress bar starts over, at the left. This continues to repeat until I remove the battery to turn it off. I called tech support again. They said they had never heard of this problem, and told me to exchange it at CompUSA, which is difficult for obvious reasons. (Also, I'd like to find out exactly what caused this, so it doesn't happen again. I don't have a lot of Linux experience, but could the .profile be messing up the boot script?) I tried running the update software from the Nokia Europe website. This starts up, but fails at a certain point with "error code: ?". There's the flasher software, with which I could reboot r&d mode and get root (and delete .profile or at least see debug info on startup), but I don't have a Linux box or Mac handy. Has anyone seen this behavior? Any advice? Thanks, Matt
