Oh I see, you are trying to use GtkWindows as the notes themselves. Matchbox (the window manager) enforces normal windows to fill the screen (excluding panels), dialogs are centered and modal, and popup windows are ignored (technically, override redirect windows). This means that they don't get decorated and can't be moved by the window manager. The solution here is to create a top level window for you application, and then draw the postit notes yourself. One way would be to create a widget which draws a postit note and place them inside a GtkFixed or GtkDrawingArea. You might want to take a look at the hildon-home-area and hildon-desktop-home-item widgets, which implement some GtkFixed-like widget and adds dragging of the items and other things.

You need a recent version of Xephyr, with version 0.4 of the composite extenstion if I remember right. Ubuntu Gutsy should be alright. If you don't have access to a recent Xephyr you can disable Composite by starting adding -extension Composite to the Xephyr command line, home will revert to its non-composited behavior (but you will not be able to test transparency). 2) Has anybody written a home plugin for Maemo 4.x and has published the source?

Re: Feature request for Application Menu In Thumb To Take 2 Columns

If I want to , say , open calculater, I have to scroll down the list (which is painfully slow) and then eventually encounter the utilities and from there the calculator. But, let's say I wanted some app from extras. Even longer scrolling and then list of extras apps. Again 6 apps. Say I wanted the 8th app. Again, scrolling. Solution: When I click on the application menu, take immediately more width for the menu and assemble the icons in two columns. Thus, user will see 12 icons immediately. No need to scroll, as the 1st level menu is less than 12. Ok, click on one of the folders if further need. Again, open in two column mode and show all apps at the same time. If user wants to navigate to first level, he/she only has to press the application menu item again. This would improve the thumb usability tremendously on N800.

It's great to see a new 2.x SDK release that runs on the same version of

2.1/scirocco SDK was released, because of auto-generated dependency issues
in the package, packages created with the 2.1 SDK would not generally work
on 2.0 platforms. As such, it has been best to continue to use the 2.0
SDK to build packages that will work on both 2.0 and 2.1 maemo platforms.
Now, we have a new 2.2 SDK, and I suspect that we will run into the same
dependency issues. Are developers going to be continued to forced to use
the 2.0 SDK in order to build packages that support all 2.x platforms (and
as a result, continue to maintain the older scratchbox installation)?
Perhaps there can be some way to configure the 2.2 SDK such that it will
generate package dependencies for older 2.x releases.
This is far from ideal, but you can always circumvent the automatic
dependencies and put the dependencies manually. Automatic dependencies
come from the ${shlibs:Depends} pseudo-dependency in the debian/control
file, which is replaced by all the packages containing the libraries the
program is linked against. You can remove this field add the
dependencies on library manually, with versions available in maemo 2.0.

Nice :) To the second question (hope it is now understandable ;-) ): When hildon_home_applet_lib_foreground() is called I update my GUI (cheking the events, birthdays, todos). This needs about 1-3 seconds (the contacts search (for birthdays) needs most of the time). This long the home-screen (eg. the other applets) hangs and you just see gray rectangles. So I thought put the gui updating (including events, todo, birthday readings) in another process or so. In Java/Python I would start a new thread creating the gui. How should I solve this issue in c? You need to keep the Glib main loop running so the UI is updated. I don't know the GPE PIM API but if it has asynchronous calls for data retrieval you should use these ones instead. You can use threads in C too but that shall be the last resort. And then a third question: At hildon_home_applet_lib_deinitialize() I should free all allocated mem. Is it enough to free the main widget (called frame in your example) to free all gtk related stuff, eg. if (osso) osso_deinitialize (osso); if (frame) gtk_widget_destroy(frame); //frame is the main widget frame=NULL; Yes that should do.

So in your case not 192.168.1.102. But man also says that Currently, the ‘host’ part is ignored. Other computer: gdb, target remote 192.168.1.102:5000 And gdbserver crashed. I forgot what it said. I think something about target not found or something with the tinymail binary. -- Johan Bilien [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
Re: [maemo-developers] IT2006 no taskmanager icon for SDL app, worked in IT2005
On Mon, Jun 12, 2006, Tommi Komulainen wrote: The application starts fine but there is no icon. Basically the above should work. However I just learned there's a related bug between SDL and Task Navigator. You should report this to https://maemo.org/bugzilla/ so it's easier to keep track of things. This has been fixed in the final release, SDL applications should now have an icon in the task navigator.

Re: [maemo-developers] RFC: Redesigning the HildonApp+Views
On Fri, Dec 16, 2005, Tommi Komulainen wrote: There's a bit of a problem. People want more eyecandy and flashy gimmicks related to application windows, but the current design makes those things difficult to implement without making a big mess. Therefore we're going to implement new widget(s) in parallel with the current HildonApp and HildonAppView that would support those new features. Existing applications will not be affected, but they won't be getting the benefits either. Eventually App+Views are going to be deprecated and dropped altogether. The design and implementations are now well on the way. But before we proceed with an API freeze, we would to ask again for feedback on the design decisions and current API.

[maemo-developers] Packages for minisip and dependencies
Hi, I have set up a repository with packages of minisip and its dependencies. These includes gtkmm and libglademm. They should be updated regularly with new revisions of our SVN. deb http://www.minisip.org/maemo/snapshots binary-arm/ deb http://www.minisip.org/maemo/snapshots binary-i386/ I tried to have them install in /var/lib/install as described on the website [1], but had to give up. I couldn't get chroot to run in scratchbox, so dpkg --root= wouldn't work. So for now they install in /usr. We would be very interested in knowing if minisip works on a real n770, in particular if our soundcard settings work with the device. Thanks, Johan.

[maemo-developers] Packaging libraries
Hi all, I'm trying to package minisip, which depends on a few libraries that are not in the maemo platform. How should I package everything? The Making a package for the Application Installer howto recommends building self-contained packages, with no dependencies. So should I link the application statically? Include the shared libraries in one big package? One of the dependency is gtkmm, which could be useful to others, so it would be good to have it as a separate package. Could it be included in the maemo platform? Thanks, Johan. ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
[maemo-developers] N 770 and webcam
Hi, is there any plan to support a camera on the N770? In the specs, the USB is only device mode, but maybe through the MMC? It'd be very nice for minisip, allowing video telephony on the device.
