Right, you don't even need the Zaurus for that ... just change your Xephyr resolution to 640x480 and you'll see the same effect (makes it easier for developers to see the problem). rusty On 12/21/05, Koen Kooi [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Luc

Hi, that an interesting screenshot because it illustrates some basic scalablility issues even at 640x480 which isn't that different from the 770. Is there anything that couldn't be fixed just by finetuning the theme files i.e. without touching any code? The titlebar is just single large

Hi, What will be your next Maemo device? I do not know, really. My major concern is, will Maemo be ready for it? Bigger screen? Smaller like S60 phones? Two screens like Communicators? Landscape? Portrait? What's about input methods? A full keyboard? A reduced keyboard like standard phones? Or

My first thinking when it comes to this is to port maemo to an existing machine, such as a IPAQ which already runs linux and today GPE. But Maemo is so much nicer than GPE. The screen is really different on the IPAQ and the 770. And changing the orientation between landscape or not, is very
