Since hildon-desktop is starting your program up via D-Bus, it expects to be able to call the top_application method on your application. You can either do that (call osso_initialize) or remove the X-Osso-Service line.

Re: How to block the camera app from starting on lens cover open

Best regards, Faheem On 23/07/2010, Martin Storsjö mar...@martin.st wrote: Hi, I'm developing an app that uses the camera, and aiming for Ovi Store. One of the issues that Ovi QA complained about is that if the lens cover isn't opened, I should add a banner saying that to the user. That's easy enough, but when the user actually opens the lens cover, the camera app opens (but since my app has grabbed the camera, fails to start). Is there any way to block this while my app is running - since if the user has started my app, and my app displays a banner telling the user to open the lens cover, the user obviously don't want the camera app to start. I've tried to explore different ways to accomplish this, but most of them requires the app to run as root. One really simple way would be to do echo 1 /sys/devices/platform/gpio-switch/cam_shutter/disable but that obviously requires root. I also tried to check what other apps, such as shortcutd do, but they don't seem to work as intended with the camera button on PR 1.2. Other ways to accomplish it would be to reroute/remove the signals, as outlined here: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=495516postcount=72 But that requires root, too. And if the camera-ui process is killed, it respawns immediately. Any hints on how to solve this in the best way? I don't want my app to fail in the next QA round with the reason camera app is launched and closes immediately if the lens cover is opened while your app is running.

Thanks for this link - doing dsmetool -k /usr/bin/camera-ui actually seems to work, even as non-root. However, for the Ovi Store QA process, I don't think this is acceptable. I already got one failure issue regarding that my application keeps the camera object reserved if the user presses the camera button, which launches the camera app. While the camera-ui process is disabled this way, neither camera lens cover open nor the camera button starts the camera application. I know it's not the cleanest in terms of solutions, but the way I see it is if Nokia really wished for developers to have a proper solution, they'd've introduced one in PR 1.1/1.1.1/1.2. Since they didn't appear to care, I can only conclude that hacks are the way to go. :) BlessN900 will start camera-ui again after it's closed by running dsmetool -t IIRC; and, TBH, this behaviour (stopping camera-ui on start and loading it up again on exit) makes sense because you wouldn't be able to run the Camera app anyway whilst your program is running. Of course, once camera-ui is running again, opening the lens cover/pressing the camera button proceed to perform their default functions. I guess I'll have to discuss it with Ovi Publisher Support then, if this is acceptable (disabling both the lens cover open action and the camera button), or if it is better to spuriously launch the camera app when the lens cover is opened. My thoughts on the former are above (I'd find it rather dodgy if they were to refuse your app due to it stopping camera-ui) and the latter just really seems like an inconvienence to your users. :\ Qik took another approach: it'd tell the user to open the cover and wait. When the camera application popped up onto the screen, Qik'd close the window and proceed to carrying on as normal. Anyway, best of luck getting your application into the Ovi Store!

OSSO == Open Source Software Operations (which is funny and now

If you're running on the device, make sure you're running as user and
not root (or at least using run-standalone.sh).
If you're running in Scratchbox, make sure to af-sb-init.sh start
and run the program using run-standalone.sh
Oh, note that some aspects of libosso will require a GLib mainloop,
whilst others require GTK+ to be initialized, as in Mr. Ivanov's reply

CID is easy: dbus-send --system --print-reply --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.phone.net /com/nokia/phone/net Phone.Net.get_registration_status The following snippet, from http://www.bleb.org/software/maemo/telephony-maemo.c, explains the return values: DBUS_TYPE_BYTE, status, DBUS_TYPE_UINT16, lac, DBUS_TYPE_UINT32, cell_id, DBUS_TYPE_UINT32, operator_code, DBUS_TYPE_UINT32, country_code, DBUS_TYPE_BYTE, network_type, DBUS_TYPE_BYTE, supported_services, DBUS_TYPE_INT32, net_err, -- Anyway, thanks to all for the answers. I'll be lazy and just listen for the operator_name_change signal; it's easier then trying to determine if the SIM card has an SPN set and using get_operator_name with the MNC and MCC determined by doing get_registration_status - not worth it for something that just reads /etc/operator_settings. :) Best Regards, Faheem On Mon, Feb 8, 2010 at 6:07 PM, Dawid Lorenz a...@adl.pl wrote: Anyway, since I've seen it is possible to issue dbus-send commands to get current network name, I thought there maybe are similar methods to get LAC/CID etc. -- Dawid 'evad' Lorenz * http://adl.pl null://I would love to change the world, but they won't give me the source code ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

Hiya, As said in the title: dbus-send --system --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.phone.SIM /com/nokia/phone/SIM Phone.Sim.get_service_provider_name returns a blank string. As I only have a T-Mobile SIM to be trying this out with, I'd like to know if a string is only returned if a USIM is inserted. Or maybe I'm invoking it in the wrong manner?

As a general rule, delay measurements should be done with the monotonic clock, not the wall clock (the real-time clock). As far as I know, Qt timers already do so internally. But of course, your own code should never request and use the wall clock for time measurements. I don't think I follow you! What do you mean by monotonic clock ? If I don't depend on the system's clock to get current time, where else can I get it from ? Let me explain my problem again briefly, I want to know the current time, calculate some future durations depending on it. Then I figure out the time left to the upcoming duration and set it as interval to a QTimer Object. But I'm afraid that user may change the system clock (adjust the clock) So that my preset time will be invalid. Just so you know... you're describing an implementation and asking if it does what you want without describing what you want. Example: At 4am the user wants to play a sound at 8am (in 4hrs). At 6am the user changes timezone and it becomes 7am. The alarm should sound at 8am in the new timezone. My guess is that you know about interval timers but you should be using a wall-clock. Since you haven't specified what you want it's hard to know. David I am very sorry for not making my question clear enough. But the situation you just described is JUST what I want to do! Yes, I want to do something exactly as you described; I am now at 4:00 am, I need to make my app do something at - say - 8:00 am (the time of the alarm is calculated and varies from time to time, so i can't just use cron jobs to schedule the next alarm), So, I used a QTimer and set its interval to the duration between now and the next alarm. BUT this solution won't work if user decides to adjust the system clock/change timezone. What I'm asking is there anyway to GET NOTIFIED by the system when its clock/timezone changes (in order to recalculate the next alarm and set my Qtimer object to a new duration)?? any signal emitted ? anything? I hope i made my question clear and sorry for any inconvenience. thanks again ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
Re: Hildon-Desktop: added Widget not shown
This is what I've noticed: killall hildon-home shouldn't cause the widgets to disappear. If hildon-home is kill -9'ed, the widgets will almost certainly disappear as part of a safe mode designed to ensure hildon-home doesn't go into a crash loop due to a misbehaving widget. But, if you then killall hildon-home (send it SIGTERM) while it is in this safe mode state, it then proceeds to update its config (which has all non-Nokia applets).

Re: [Fremantle] Creating gconf keys upon installation
Talking of schemas, it would be nice if dh_gconf could be made not to put the rmdir -p --ignore-fail-on-non-empty line into the postrm of a package using it, since the BusyBox shipped with the N900 doesn't appear to support to support the --ignore-fail-on-non-empty option which causes dpkg --purge package having the the clause containing --ignore-fail-on-non-empty to fail.

hildon-desktop does not ever grab the keyboard. It only grabs some

$ vi default.xkb
comment out the two rules that cause syntax errors:
// interpret AccessX_Enable+AnyOfOrNone(all) {
// action= LockControls(controls=);
// };
// interpret MouseKeys_Accel_Enable+AnyOfOrNone(all)
{
// action= LockControls(controls=);
// };
Now you can restore the settings back by running
$ xkbcmp default.xkb :0
if you screw up and end up with a nonfunctional
keyboard.
Next
$ cp default.xkb mg.xkb
$ vi mg.xkb
key RGHT {
type= FOUR_LEVEL,
symbols[Group1]= [ Right, Right,
Tab, Tab ]
};
$ xkbcomp mg.xkb :0
and now Fn+Right arrow is a Tab key.
Sadly I don't know enough about xkbcomp to see if it's
possible to make
it load incomplete maps on top of the current
configuration, just to
update a few symbols without replicating the full
configuration.
None of the changes I make
to /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/nokia_vndr/rx-51
have any effect (yes I reboot after changing the
file).
Maybe the files in /var/cache/xkb contain precompiled
versions of those?
I'm not adventurous enough to go and start editing
files in /usr/.
Although creating a new symbols file in there and
loading it on top of
the defaults with setxkbmap ought to maybe work...

(I have already replied with the following:
Replace
type= FOUR_LEVEL,

Tab ]
with
type= PC_FN_LEVEL2,
symbols[Group1]= [ Right, Tab ]
and you will retain the ability to highlight text with shift-
right arrow.)

Re: Turning on Automatically when connected to power
Hi, I have my N810 booting straight into a desktop when I boot with the charger in. Changing the runlevel number seemed like the way to go but didn't work for one reason: mce checked to see if it was booted with the charger in; if so, then display the charger screen. This meant that it booted into the desktop, sure, but I would have to hold the power key first before the touchscreen and wifi were activated (and if you had a lock code, entering that then) so a straight change didn't work for me. So, thanks to fanoush, I changed the bootreason driver in the kernel to let me write whatever I wished to in it. (Patch is on the internet, but it's dodgy code unless you wish to clean it up...) So I added this to /mnt/initfs/linuxrc, before DSME starts: bootreason=`cat /proc/bootreason` if [ x$bootreason = xcharger ]; then echo pwr_key /proc/bootreason fi This way, DSME tells MCE that it has been started by holding the power key, and the linuxrc script thinks likewise so it boots from runlevel 2.

Re: Fremantle: Opening URLs and local files
Hi,
I'm a libosso whore so this is how I do it:
#include libosso.h
osso_context_t* osso_context;
osso_rpc_t* osso_retval = { 0 };
char *open = http://www.google.com;;
osso_context = osso_initialize (com.what.ever, 0.9.9, FALSE, NULL);
osso_rpc_run(osso_context, com.nokia.osso_browser,
/com/nokia/osso_browser, com.nokia.osso_browser,
open_new_window, osso_retval, DBUS_TYPE_STRING, open,
DBUS_TYPE_INVALID);
osso_deinitialize(osso_context);
open_new_window does what it says on the tin: a new window is opened
with the URL supplied. You can also substitute that for load_url
which will, depending if a window is already open, a) load the link
given into a browser that is already open OR b) open a new window with
the link given.
I've been naughty here and have hardcoded the method names etc. but
these are all defined in /usr/include/tablet-browser-interface.h
And, yes, this works under Fremantle. ;)

Faheem

Hi, I'm certainly far from being a licensing expert.

Re: Maemo Flasher-3.5 Tool Beta for Fremantle and Diablo released
*If* Nokia have no intention of open-sourcing this version of the flasher (because it can flash the new tablet and Nokia may not like the idea of releasing code relating to the internals of the new tablet), then I'd sincerely hope that they would at release the code to 3.0 as Nokia (yes, I mean Nokia: I'm not referring to Mer here) have no intention of providing updates for the devices flasher-3.0 supports (not bitter about it in any way - I'm just telling it as a statement of fact), it would be nice to have the source code to that version.

I did so (like you, not liking the same behaviour) and it started the desktop but requiring me to press the power button to enable touchscreen and input (i.e it's expecting to be booted in ACTDEAD state). All I did, however, was to change it from ACTDEAD state to USER state if it detects charger, so more may need to be done. I do not know what provides /proc/bootreason but (if it's the kernel, like I'm hoping), it may be easier to not make it say charger in bootreason if it's booted with a charger.

Re: How to get a program window into the task/window switcher?
Incidentally, this only happens because libSDL uses Xutf8TextListToTextProperty() in SDL_x11vm.c to set the window title. Commented a few lines to make it use XStringListToTextProperty() and using SDL_WM_SetCaption() worked to set the title without any Xlib tricks.

To: Martin Wegner martinator...@arcor.de Hello, Here's a SDL example: Building and running http://olofson.net/download/parallax-2.tar.gz and pressing home only shows me the terminal I started it with: http://i42.tinypic.com/124wyub.png sdlonly For SDL (and SDL only) , you have to add a putenv(SDL_VIDEO_X11_WMCLASS=app); because SDL under Maemo seems to report the same WMCLASS for every SDL app. So I've added putenv(SDL_VIDEO_X11_WMCLASS=parallax); above SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO); and this forces the WMCLASS of this app to be parallax. Other apps usually have a correct WMClass. /sdlonly Now, if I start the SDL demo on the N800 and run xprop over SSH and tap on my window, I get the following output: http://pastebin.com/mc90995a I do not know where a packaged version of xprop is available for diablo - I compiled my binary on the tablet. Looking at the highlighted line in the pastebin output, the WMCLASS is parallax (ignore the second parallax in quotes - the first pair of quotes is the value needed). Now, the next step is to make a desktop file. I've saved this file as /usr/share/applications/hildon/parallax2.desktop. Here is the one I've quickly made for parallax: http://pastebin.com/m66ba244f Notice that the argument given to StartupWMClass is the same as the WMClass output given from xprop. And, lo and behold, I get my icon shown: http://i39.tinypic.com/avllrn.png (Ignore that the window title is shown as unknown - this is something specific to SDL under Maemo) Some hints regarding the desktop file: - The Name field you will want to name properly as it's the name shown in the application menu and it's also shown when you tap and hold on the application's entry in the application switcher on the left. - If you have no intention of running it from the menu, you can remove the Exec field and add NoDisplay=true to the desktop file. As long as the desktop file is there, the icon will still show regardless of not having an exec field and it will still show even if you choose not to display the desktop file entry in the application manager.

Re: Uploading packages to extras that already exist in maemo SDK
Hi, Personally, I'd wait because it is only an alpha SDK and versions of the libraries may change. You'll just add work for yourself having to update Extras if a library is updated.

Re: Video chat on N800 upside-down
Hi, I don't mean to sound ominous or anything, but is the camera mechanism for detecting the camera has been turned still working? I'm using an N800 with diablo and the latest SSU update (36-5 at the time of this email) and my N800 can still tell the camera has been turned and rotates the picture (and this N800 was smacked with a football and fell on a concrete floor and the camera popped out...). If you really want to make it rotate manually for the time being: gconftool-2 -s -t bool /system/osso/af/camera-has-turned 1 (gconftool-2 -s -t bool /system/osso/af/camera-has-turned 0 to make it normal again).

I figure it has something to do with the Flash program not recognizing that a camera exists or that the camera is not registered in the right way on the device so that the Flash program can see it and connect to it.

It seemed to cause a lot of grief for developers without any real benefits. This change is targetted to making uploading packages easier. Every uploader has to be authenticated to upload a package, so we can already trace back the uploader. The autobuilder signs packages which are moved into the repository. Ok, so you don't need to sign the packages anymore, but it won't hurt if you upload a signed package, isn't it? My question here is concerning dput uploads. Is it still possible to upload packages using dput?? If this is the case, is GPG signing still required?
