download statistics and package changes
Hi, Is the download statistics going to be enabled again? For a month now, I see that it can take two weeks to get statistics. Also, at least for kmplayer, the changes on http://maemo.org/downloads/product/Maemo5/kmplayer/ are updated to the changes from the package in extras-(devel/testing) and not the one that is in extras.

Re: rx-51 xkb file: how does FOUR_LEVEL type work?

Understood! But notice that for my sample xkb config, to print the [
char that I slotted at the 4th level, I would have to:
a) lock Fn (by double press)
b) shift (by single press)
c) type h key once
but it doesn't work. However, let's say I had programmed my c key as
key AB03{ [c, C, ccedilla, Ccedilla ] };
then the ç (lowercase cedilla) is accessible via Fn and Ç (uppercase
cedilla) is accessible via locked-Fn plus Shift-c.
So why does FOUR_LEVEL, or its variants, appear to only work for lowercase
/ uppercase character pairs but not for any other character combinations.
Specifically, is the Hildon layer enforcing this behaviour?

ESBox include paths
Hi guys, I have been working on this issue for couple of days. The problem was to add the include path in a C++ Maemo project in ESBox. I want to add the gstream lib (downloaded and installed in the scratchbox). I tried to add the path through Project-Properties-C++ Path and Symbols but when i compiled the project it says: cannot find the header files.

My configured kbd language is US. I am using firmware PR1.1. I am trying to understand why it works for you, though in your case you are using EIGHT_LEVEL. Out of curiosity, on your layout how do you get to levels above 4, is that what the Ctrl-space sequence is for? --denis ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

I'm not using it for my packages, modest is. Just used it as an example since that's a multi-platform, freely apt-gettable program I recalled from the top of my head. I don't think there is a consensus about how this should be done. To bring up the example of modest back again, you can do --with-platform=detect, where it checks for libconic and makes a maemo build if it's available: dnl dnl now, determine what to build dnl AC_MSG_NOTICE([Determining what platform to build]) PKG_CHECK_MODULES(MODEST_MAEMO_LIBS,conic,[detected_platform=maemo],[detected_platform=gnome]) Nothing prevents you from adding a hack like that, but basically you would still be bundling a way to specify the target platform on build command line, and probably invoke that in your platform specific debian/rules. In the end, what it comes down to, is that youl'll have #ifdefs in the code anyway - no need to fret too much about how those DEFINEs come about. Upstream probably won't care too much. -- Ville M.

[Hildon-Extras] New widgets: about dialog, simple color dialog
Hello! I'm happy to announce that two new widgets are now available in the Hildon-Extras SVN repository. Hildon-Extras is a collection of additional widgets and dialogs that are designed to work on Maemo devices and make development of commonly-used UI elements easier by providing a set of ready-made widgets (and dialogs) that you can use in your applications. The HeAboutDialog widget is an alternative to GtkAboutDialog, and uses fonts and colors from the Fremantle Style Guide to provide an informative about dialog for an application. In addition to the static info, a developer can optionally provide up to three URLs that will be accessible using buttons: Website, bug tracker and donations. You are free to skip any of these, and the corresponding button will not be shown. The HeSimpleColorDialog works as a very simplified and finger-friendly color chooser dialog that has a pre-defined palette of colors. It's most useful for applications where the user does not need to select that specific shade of green, but just needs to choose colors to differentiate between different objects (e.g. calendar categories, TODO items, etc..). Grab it from the project website (you'll find the link to the SVN repo there): https://garage.maemo.org/projects/hildon-extras/ Enjoy!

Ok, I did your suggested remapping as follows,

xkb_symbols us {
include nokia_vndr/rx-51(english_base)
include nokia_vndr/rx-51(arrows_4btns)
name[Group1] = U.S. English;
// 1. row
key AD01{ [ q, Q, 1, F1 ] };
key AD02{ [ w, W, 2, F2 ] };
key AD03{ [ e, E, 3, F3 ] };
key AD04{ [ r, R, 4, F4 ] };
key AD05{ [ t, T, 5, F5 ] };
key AD06{ [ y, Y, 6, F6 ] };
key AD07{ [ u, U, 7, F7 ] };
key AD08{ [ i, I, 8, F8 ] };
key AD09{ [ o, O, 9, F9 ] };
key AD10{ [ p, P, 0, F10 ] };
};
and indeed the F6 key mapping works and toggles fullscreen... but I can
only trigger F6 by pressing Fn+Shift simultaneously. The method of
locking either Fn or Shift first, doesn't work for me.
I then tried replacing the F6 mapping with,
key AD06{ [ y, Y, 6, bracketleft ] };
but no luck, it doesn't work... a colleague with a French-version N900 has
an RX-51 mapping with some FOUR_LEVEL functional mappings. See the 'fr'
map here, http://www.natisbad.org/N900/rx-51. And as Arkady reported
earlier, his russian layout has a mostly functional EIGHT_LEVEL... but it
looks as if the hildon-layer is doing special processing for this.
The AC01, AB04, etc., labels I think can be broken as 1st char for
alphanumeric, 2nd letter for the keyboard row from the bottom and the
digits the column on the keyboard... with the special keys having their
own names. What I don't understand is how different row keys are mixed on
different foreign layouts.
