Re: First release of Enscribi - handwriting recognition input method

2009-02-16 Thread Alex Tsui
Hi HouYu, I guess you found out that it doesn't work with Messages
already. I was busy reflashing the Neo to the latest. Glad you found
something else that works though. I'm also interested in what you are
doing and will take a look at Tomoe after school today.

Re: First release of Enscribi - handwriting recognition input method

2009-02-15 Thread Alex Tsui
Hi Olof,

It looks good. I have installed it on SHR and set it up as keyboard, it works!

Sometimes when I draw near the edge of the writing block and cross in
and out of bounds twice, Enscribi will crash and I have to restart X
to bring it back. It also pops up and error on booting up after I've
set it to the default keyboard, though it will still work after that.

I will continue to play with it. Thanks for it,

--Alex

Re: Roll The Dice

Swapping to the OM 2008.9 uImage worked around the accelerometer bug for me.

I rewrote the constructor so now you can specify how many dice will
appear. I put the dice in a list and the roll method goes through that
list and randomizes the numbers. In the script, I just set it to
display 6 dice. I don't know how to go about making an option to
change the number and to update the display, but step by step we go!

The updated ko-dice is here, just replace it:

Sorry, it's an indirect/temporary link. I will find a better place to
stick files online. Hmm, you think it'd be easier to deal with/update
if it's on opkg? Kris, how about packing it and putting it up?

Re: Roll The Dice

2009-01-15 Thread Alex Tsui
Yes, the bug is exactly as you described: the stream of data pauses in
motion. Is there some more information about this somewhere? I
searched docs.openmoko.org/trac but didn't turn up this specific bug.
Then again, most of the tickets are filed under OM 2008.8, maybe
there's no issue with an earlier OM?

Thanks for the tip,

Re: Roll The Dice

2009-01-14 Thread Alex Tsui
Kind of cool, I fetched it to check out the code. I tried it with
om2008.12, after installing pygtk etc. I ran the program, but shaking
the phone gets no response. Only touching the screen starts it off
vibrating. I also tried the modified ko-dice with same result. I think
the shakes are not getting registered for me somehow.
