Hello everybody,
I've always been 'leeching' on this board, many thanks for the sharing of your experiences and ideas to all.
Soon I'll finally have something to offer as well, if anyone's interested, a French version of Midori Linux with simplified configuration pages... nothing spectacular but if anyone needs it drop me a line at bhorsting@hotmail.com . supports the original & french layout keyboards.
For the first time I'm stuck with an I-Opener on a technical problem, and quite an annoying one, at that: after flashing the sandisk with another version of midori using a harddisk, I unplugged power as usual to get the harddisk off the IDE conn. (In case you wonder, I was fixing some network stuff, that's why I couldn't update it that way). When I plugged back in to test the installation, the power plug sparked inside the socket. The socket shows a complete shortcut, but there's nothing electrical (solder, stuff fallen in...) that could cause it...
Did anyone experience this, and does anyone know of possible electronic causes for it? I have the tools to repair it even if it's an SMD, with a bit of pacience. Thought of a burnt-through electrolytic cap, but the ones I see are in fine condition it seems.
It sounds cruel, but I hope someone went through the same trouble as me.......
Many thanks
Somersault
