i could only find this [1] ticket which is 4 months old and apparently
got no attention but IIRC the keyboard never really worked "corectly" in
landscape. here we perhaps have different opinion on what is correct:

as i remember in the past, in landscape mode the keyboard would use to
show up not being cut BUT it didn't get resized to the true width of the
screen thus it would (not correctly) only allow the user to use the same
size of buttons as in portrait mode. to see the keyboard resized, the
re-enabling keyboard trick had to be used.

as Xglamo kills my fr upon suspend/resume in landscape i never really
bothered but now i tried Xorg and suspend/resume seem to work OK so the
landscape mode can be quite useful already. the glitch is that there is
only one person who can fix this and that's Raster...

perhaps at least we raised the issue once again...

I would imagine towers from different companies is part of it.

Also, there are going to be areas on the edge of coverage where your  
phone can detect the signal, but reception would be very poor  
(frequent drop outs &c). So the distribution of cell towers will  
reflects that - enough so there's always one you get good coverage  
from, and incidentally there will always be some more distant ones  
your phone can recognise.

If I'm understanding this right, the phone may be registering with  
these more distant towers, which might beg the "why" question. But  
it's likely the cell companies have lots of towers with overlapping  
coverage, so it's surely not a problem.

Oh, I did not even think of that. (It took me a perl script to count all the

ElmDentica 0.7.0 is out!

2009-10-10 Thread Rui Miguel Silva Seabra
Hi everyone! ElmDentica hasn’t had a new release for a while (*cough*cough*
proving it works so well *cough*cough*), so I though I should share with you
the new stuff in the development of this release.

The news are:

* Replacement of the side buttons by hover’s fired up by pressing for
* about 1s over the bubble
* Usage of inwins for entering user and domain data in the settings
* window
* Usage of hoversel to gain a few more space on the toolbar, specially
* for future features

http://files.1407.org/openmoko/elmdentica/elmdentica-0.7.0-scap-2.png

So that’s about it… you can get the package from the usual places, the
project’s web-site, by upgrading shr-unstable as it upgrades elmdentica on
next autobuild, building it yourself, etc…

Yes I did that because I was trying to inhibit the predictive behaviour of the 
alphabetical keyboard to make it more like the terminal keyboard. I wrote these 
layouts for my wife so she could use the phone without a stylus. She has a 
strong dislike for predictive "T9" style input methods. On her Motorola she 
prefers to press every key three times when typing an SMS.

She is traveling soon but decided not to take the openmoko because it doesn't 
have a UI to display sent SMS messages. Also it was a bit tricky to use.

I will set those layouts to the correct type and reissue them in the next 
couple of days. I will also see what I can do about the colon character.

actually the 'type' of  Alpha.kbd
is set to 'TERMINAL' instead of  'ALPHA'.

I haven't noticed any difference though.
I think it's the quotes around the second
character that makes it use the dictionray
prediction.

One character I was instantly missing was
the ":". I had to use the 'Terminal' layout
to type a smiley :-)

2. Use SSH networking to copy them to the phone

3. On the phone copy both files to 
/usr/lib/enlightenment/modules/illume/keyboards

4. Restart Enlightenment

killall -HUP enlightenment

It should also be possible to download them directly on the phone, then use the 
terminal to move the files to the correct location.

Oops sorry about that. I added the comments at the after I tested the last 
version. Bad luck finding a bug like that.

I noticed that the keyboard window retains the geometry given to it by my 
larger keyboard layout. This was the reason why I started to update the numeric 
layout to the same size as the alphanumeric one.

I have updated my repository

http://glitch.tl/cgi-bin/hgwebdir.cgi/home/host/glitch.tl/repos/openmoko-keyboards/rev/1d5e2a734703

...and tested that actual version on my phone. Thanks for giving it a go. I 
occasionally need the terminal layout so I may attempt a new version of that 
one as well.

I had the same problem. There are some more .desktop files under your
home directory in some hidden subfolder (if I remember it was
~/.local/share/applications/). just look for them with find -name
*.desktop from your home folder and u will find also the
mplayer.desktop file.

These commands are not what a sane user wants to disable and enable
wifi and save power. For FSO-based distros, read FSO_Resources
wikipage, for all others i advice to learn binding/unbinding trick or
just module load/unload.

At first boot you can add applications to quicklauncher (?). If I remember 
correctly Mplayer was set there as default. 

I am not sure if that is the correct name. I don't know exactly how you can 
remove the applications from there.

Re: [SHR-U] Keyboard layouts for extremely fat fingers

2009-10-10 Thread pike
Hi

>>> I have created two keyboard layouts for the illume keyboard. They
>>> are  available from this repository:

> Very nice. I want it. I guess I'll try
> http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Illume_keyboard#How_to_install_a_new_layout

That didn't work all that nice :-( Tried to
install them next to raster's keyboards, but
they appeared all empty. Then I replaced
rasters keyboard with these, but Enlightenment
segfaulted, had to restart, lost my ssh into
the brick and Enlightment wouldnt get back up
.. ouch .. anyway

The trick is, the files shouldnt
start with comments. I removed the first
4 lines (so it starts with ##KBDCONF-1.0)
and they work like a charm.

Can't really run them side by side with
Raster's, because the keyboard's canvas
sizes are different; apparently, enlightenment
chooses the canvas size of the first keyboard
it finds and sticks to that. I have them
all working now, but raster's keyboards
are swimming in a pool of empty greyness.

Great though - I'll stick to those.

thanks!

 Yes, I have one, the mini is too small (it almost fits, but not quite),
 luckily Aquapac let me exchange it for a medium which fits without any
problems (although there's a fair amount of excess space).

You could use the screen rotating function under wrench --> screen -->
screen resolution. It's not very comfortable to acess but it's already

It doesn`t have to be triangular, but some shape that could be meshed would 
work. Circular probably best. But alas...

Waterproof bag

Hi,

has anyone tried one of the waterproof (5m) bags from Aquapac?
Is the "mini" [1] sufficient or is it too tight and it would be better to use 
"medium" [2]?

Thanks for your replies.

Were you thinking about meshed triangular keys? Maybe you should ask the 
Enlightenment people about that. I have just adapted the existing layouts using 
information on the wiki page. I am sure there are some tricks there which I 
don't know about.
