After the Jailbreak, 3rd party apps are contained within the Installer.app once you get "Community Sources" downloaded. All the new icons you see in the many screencap threads of jailbroken iPods are from the Installer.app.
I'm not sure if this has been explained yet, but when I install SSH, and then I have to go check it by using the command ssh -1 1paddress, I get the message.
No such command 'ssh'.
I restarted after installing the new OS, and once again after installing SSH, but still get this.

If you're using a Mac, I suggest you use Terminal without installing anything beforehand (like a separate SSH client). If you're using Windows, I recommend using PuTTY instead, I found it easier to use.
Unfortunately I don't have a Mac available to use and I've only done the Windows jailbreak, but have you tried appending /bin/ before the ssh command?
/bin/ssh -l
Unfortunately, the short answer is YES. Take a look around at the healthy sprinkling of "Oops, my iPod doesn't work now" and "I can't restore my iPod" threads.
If you choose a jailbreak method, make sure to read through every single step before taking the first one. You have to able to guarantee yourself that you're following each step EXACTLY, and with certainty.
It's all top-level software stuff, no chance of brickage. You can always put the iPod in restore mode and reinstall the OS.
to add calendar functionality, its easier to just download the "touch caledar fix" off installer.app
Just a tip for those who can't get calander to work, I have found out. You don't even have to have the actual program. You gotta make sure that you have the community sources app installed, then from there you go waaaay down to the bottom and it will be called "Calander for the Touch" or something like that, you install that and it will let you add events in the calander!
can someone please be more specific? Like how do I find /Applications/ on my iPod? And do I install GMM.framework using installer.app or something?
Thanks.
Wow. I tried to aggregate all useful links into one single post, and you still can't see it?
Thanks for the tip. Initial post updated.
You have to be able to access your iPod at the root level and simply copy the appropriate folders into the directories listed in the original post.
On Windows, this can be done easily with WinSCP (link above, drag+drop). I'm not sure about Mac, as I haven't tried.
Once you've copied over the files to your iPod, you can highlight these files in the GUI (on the iPod side) and right click to set Properties. You will see a permissions box with an "Octal" field. Enter 0755 and save the settings. This is the equivalent of the chmod command.
Well, if the poster you're responding to hasn't figured it out yet, the iPhone Native Apps can be found in my original post, right under the heading "iPhone Native Apps"...
