In this page I post all my snippets of tweak and mods, I made this for the reference of all tweaks I did and might need after a reflash

Setting up the device

Setting up the most important applications

apt-get update 
apt-get install  kernel-power-flasher linux-backports-modules-power recovery-boot busybox-power powertop shortcutd tracker-cfg wpakey-editor powertop sudser phone-control nano-opt gconf-editor procps bash3 swappolube

improve performance

Tracker-cfg tick lowmemorymode and set throttle to 10
Use proposed swappolube settings, except swappiness should be 50
Turn off swap on eMMC, enable on uSD

Boot script placed in /etc/event.d/swapusd

start on started hildon-desktop
stop on starting shutdown
console none
service

script

sleep 60
swapon /dev/mmcblk1p2
swapoff /dev/mmcblk0p3
echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/page-cluster
echo 256 > /sys/block/mmcblk0/queue/nr_requests
echo 512 > /sys/block/mmcblk1/queue/nr_requests
echo 7 > /sys/block/mmcblk0/queue/iosched/slice_idle

echo 250 > /sys/block/mmcblk0/queue/iosched/fifo_expire_async
echo 250 > /sys/block/mmcblk1/queue/iosched/fifo_expire_async

end script

Installing handy tools

apt-get install conkylayoutswitcher flashlight-applet alarmed ssh-status clipman led-pattern-editor cl-launcher macchanger hostmode-gui extkbd extmou easy-deb-chroot extended-contacts-search gconf-editor less simple-brightness-applet

Installing some garbage I like to use

apt-get install aircrack-ng stkeys brainparty cutetube-qml dosbox supertux-stable frogatto colorflood pierogi telepathy-msn-pecan leafpad opera filebox irggu

Personalizing the device

Install widgets and themes

 apt-get install awoken-icon-theme black-plastic-theme plastic-addon-pack-1 cal-home-widget connectnow-home-widget queen-beecon quick-launch

Make the FMTX applet always visible

gconftool-2 -s /apps/osso/maemo-statusmenu-fmtx/always_visible -t bool true

Tweaks

Use sudo while already root. Sometimes when I am root I still type sudo in-front of a command and it spits out the help of sudo. This will add root to sudoers and solve that. Not very useful but it's a small and convenient tweak

sudo gainroot
echo "user ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL" >> everybody.sudoers
echo "root ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL" >> everybody.sudoers
mv everybody.sudoers /etc/sudoers.d
update-sudoers

My transitions.ini based on dragoss91 smoothest transitions.ini

Chroot

When using a Maemo 5 PR1.3 qchroot /home/opt/ from the real maemo installation is mounted which results in a big mess. So we need to edit the qchroot to only mount MyDocs and not the whole /home/ folder

#/sbin/qchroot/
Comment out line 82

81 # Do it the Fremantle way.
82 # mount /dev/mmcblk0p2 "$CHROOT/home"

pymaemo-optify works not as expected while it's one file system instead of 3 partitions.

To fix this install pymaemo-optify first
Then 

mv /etc/event.d/pymaemo-optify /etc/eventd.d/pymaemo-optify.bak
mv /etc/init.d/pymaemo-optify /etc/init.d/pymaemo-optify.bak

Fix Wifite.py

 sudo sed -i "s/(prefix='wifite')/(prefix='wifite',dir='\/opt\/tmp')/g" /home/user/MyDocs/MyScripts/wifite.py; sudo if [ ! -d "/opt/tmp" ]; then mkdir /opt/tmp; fi
