Well,,,,, a bit more progress: 1) I flashed back to Nokia_770_SE2005_5_2006_13_7.bin, which worked fine. Got information from my DHCP server, used that for internet access, allowed internet browsing 2) Flashed back to SU-18_2006SE_1.2006~PR_F5_MR0_ARM.bin, which (this time) had internet access through my LAN. I have to conclude that at least some of my prior trouble was caused by a "bad" flash. BUT, after installing files from the memory card, I still have the X Terminal failing to start. I wonder if I should have installed both those curses packages: ncurses-base_5.4-4_all.deb libncurses5_5.4-4_armel.deb After installing dropbear_0.48-0.1_armel.deb I still do not have ssh access to the 770. I still have not gotten the ApplicationsCatalog2006 thing to work. Maybe that's a cockpit error. I go to ApplicationManager>Tools>ApplicationCatalog and try to select one or both of the "tableteer" URLs. "New" seems to not do what I want; it requires me to type in a URL. What SHOULD I be doing to get one or more repositories specified here? Is there some documentation that I've failed to find? I REALLY didn't expect this stuff to be so troublesome. -- Willie, ONWARD!
