[maemo-developers] How to stop opera from demanding a connection?

2006-05-12 Thread Tom Wolf
I am working with a local web server on the 770 (thttpd - http://maemo.feelslikeburning.com/thttpd/thttpd_2.23beta1-maemo_2006may12a.deb
) and am trying to figure out how to manage / configure the Opera browser to get it to stop demanding a connection when i am trying to access a local page.I want to to simply display the page for local (eg 
http://localhost or http://127.0.0.1) web services, and only ask for a connection for external requests.Any ideas / suggestions?thank youtom w wolf

[maemo-developers] Re: [maemo-users] How to stop opera from demanding a connection?

2006-05-12 Thread Tom Wolf
I am doing that currently, however (correct me if i am wrong) doesn't the wifi transmitter keep running with an adhoc connection? I have set my adhoc connection to 10mw to maximize battery life (off would be better)
It is workable in the short term, but in order to maximize battery life it really does make sense to figure out a way to keep the transmitter off.tom w wolfOn 5/12/06,

[maemo-developers] gconf / gconftool question

2006-04-25 Thread Tom Wolf
I have been trying to change some system level settings related to the
look and feel of the GUI on the 770, such as font, font size, and
transition images. Regarding the transition images (startup, shutdown,
nokia logo, etc), I was expecting that I would be able to make these
changes with gconftool-2 in this manner:

gconftool -t string -s /system/systemui/splash/greeting_image some image name

I have hacked images into the /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon
directory to replace the current startup / greeting images (eg
nokia_logo and hands), but i was looking for a more supported solution,
and gconf seemed like the mechanism.

Anyway, i changed the system images though gconftool-2 (as shown
above), and rebooted. The images were not updated and there was no
obvious impact. I read the keys back out with gconftool-2, and they
were still set to the values I set.

Any suggestions or explanations as to what I am doing wrong regarding the use of gconftool-2 to change the system UI?

thank you

Re: [maemo-developers] Tips for making an application installer package

I have also developed a couple of scripts for converting debian arm packages and zaurus ipk packages to maemo packages. http://maemotalk.feelslikeburning.com/2006/02/21/maemo-package-management-tools/

 And, would it be okay to include dictd in the package, or is it better to point people to the official Debian arm package?(With apologies for the late reply...)IMO relying on official Debian arm packages is a poor substitute for a
proper 770 application installer package.I'd like to minimize theactions I take that require root.(On the other hand, if an official arm package had (i) no postinst orprerm scripts, and (ii) no internal hardcoding of its install
location, and (iii) no dependencies except maemo, it should JustWork as a 770 package.Someone who knows dpkg-deb could probablywrite a script to check (i) and (ii), and fix up (iii), such that a
770 package could sometimes be created automatically from an officialarm package.)Neil___maemo-developers mailing list
