-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 In the last OS, before I updated, all I needed to do was the ssh root at localhost, and since I had set the root password, this worked fine and dandy. I'd heard something about the red pill mode (this some reference to the Matrix?) but I'd never needed it. Well, I sure need it now. I saw, on the web, and description of how to get root which was for a VERY elderly version of the OS, which said you needed to reflash the N800 (thereby tossing away all the stuff I'd done so far) and then to do the flash util using a parameter of --enable-rd-mode, THEN after I had set the root password (somehow, this is supposed to be easy in rd mode) to re-reflash with --disable-rd-mode. Is this the method I gotta use, or is there possibly some easier way to go about getting the root password? I mean, when I flash OS2008, what the heck did it set the root password to? This can't be true, it really seems to be an incredibly paranoid way to go about things. Just what is the rd mode? Second, if I have the machine hooked up to the power supply, I want to have the machine NEVER dim the screen, NEVER have the machine go to sleep. Is there any way to go about this? Lastly, is there some way to cause this machine to go into a sleeping mode, so it doesn't need full reboot? If I do that, how do I go about safely waking the machine back up again?
