I was running xterm full screen and can't get it back. Tried 'exit' without success. Hard shutdown required.

When kernel notices the errors, it re-mounts the card as read-only, but still allows processes to read it. Many applications aren't well prepared for file systems that may produce garbage though. Nicholas, what "mount" says of your card(s)? > It can be the MMC card is really dead/broken or the device doesn't like > it for some reason (dirty contacts? bad mini/micro adapter?). I think there were some changes in OS2008 about card recognization. Knowing the exact models of the cards is necessary. Is e.g. the 128Mb card the one coming with the device or something else? - Eero _______________________________________________ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@xxxxxxxxx https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
