Hi again, > Have you ever tried recent GPE on a 200MHz iPaq? > I find that very "snappy" too and it uses GTK2... I have to admit that I do not have a lot of knowledge how qualified different toolkits are for handheld use - my observations just showed that GTK2 performs quite poorly on the 770 as it does for larger desktop applications. (like Eclipse/GTK2 (Eclips/Motif or Eclipse/FOX perform well), Evolution, ...) - the promise to tune it is arround for years now but I haven't seen major progress in this area. Its not possible to scroll widgets/tables withought articafts and window-repaints of simple windows with just a few widgets take 200-500ms. Skinned FLTK apps are fast even on that underpowered device...

But since the plan is to expose the cairo-api this would be quite difficult ... just another layer somewhere in the stack. One size simlpy does not fit all. lg Clemens _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
