Canola beta2 is here
I’ve been playing with the latest beta for Canola today and it’s definitely worth updating. As you might expect there are a number of under the hood enhancements and fixes. If you’ve got a 770 you can finally get back into the game as well which I am sure will be a welcome to many!
Gustavo noted the changes on the Maemo Users list:
– 770 support [*]
– Settings->Media Library->Multiple album entries: utility to merge
various albums into a single one (or collection)
– Formats: real media (.ra, .rm, .rmv…), windows media (.asf,
.wma, .wmv, …), png
– Improvements to podcast, better error handling
– Various optimizations
– Force rescan utility
– Splash screen for faster feedbackHope installation will be smoother this time!

[*] 770 support: gregale is regular install, but for Hacker Edition
(bora ported to 770) you need a special proceeding (ain’t you
hackers!?):
1) disable all repositories
2) add the repositories:
2.1) deb http://repository.maemo.org gregale free non-free
2.2) deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras gregale free non-free
3) update list
4) install canola2
5) remove gregale repositories
These steps are required because Hacker Edition kernel doesn’t provide
inotify and we compile bora EFL packages optimized for n8xx (omap
2420, arm1136jf-s).
Be sure to reboot after the update …

I installed Canola beta2 and after that I couldn’t remove it. Uninstallation was not possible due to two other applications supposedly being affected, or Canola was required for those two other apps to run… I couldn’t find the two other applications in my applications list, nor by browsing the directories via shell prompt. I had to flash the Nokia and restore from last good known back-up.
Known issue?

I wish I could help you directly, but I’ve got no real idea what’s going on there… I’d suggest filing a bug here — https://garage.maemo.org/tracker/?func=add&group_id=125&atid=1989
