Thanks Fred, that sounds awesome.

Although I'm looking at developing my own for one command only.

Are sources available for this widget?


I really don't see why you would make another one when this one does 
just what you asked for (and more), but that's your call :-)


The project page is here:

Hi, I want to build a small widget to show the results from a terminal
script that the widget should run.

Imagine something like a widget that shows the output of an [ls] command.

Is that possible?

Actually the command would be a small Go program.


Hi Francisco,

Actually this has already been available for some time.

It's called the Desktop Command Execution Widget (DCEW).

It's a great little tool !

HTH,

Repeat quetion : Diablo update to OS2008HE ? (Was: Software Choices for New Nokia 770?)

 No, you've been playing with Chinook. Diablo is not available for the  
 770.

Well, this is a question I've meant to ask Quim for a while now, so here 
is my opportunity. I've asked it here before without an answer, but some 
threads on ITT have brought it back to light recently.

Despite the disparaging remarks by the Maemo team when OS2008HE came out 
(end-of-the-line, too much for the poor beast etc.), quite a few 
people (including me) are satisfied with it breathing a new life into 
their old 770. Maemo Mapper in particular, a rare example of commitment 
to maintaining a native maemo app on all NIT platforms, works just fine 
on it.

The problem we are having now is that some recent apps, or their Diablo 
upgrades, fail to install or run, although they could be really useful 
on a home-bound 770 : to name a few, Canola, Maemo remote (which also 
uses EFL), or liqbase...

So, before the Fremantle wave definitely buries the 770 platform (and 
maybe the N8x0 too), it would be really good to see a final update 
bringing the main Diablo improvements to OS2008HE, so that it can still 
run the latest relevant apps.

Is there any chance this will happen ?

TIA,
fp

Re: Diablo released

2008-06-24 Thread Fred Pacquier
No one seems to have asked the obligatory, ritual question yet... so I 
guess I need to fill in :

Will there be a 2008HE version of Diablo for good old 770 ? :-)

(as someone mentioned, I don't recall whether it was here or on ITT, a 
770 with 2008HE, Maemo mapper and a GPS is a great personal navigator 
solution - better even than the N8x0, for a number of reasons)

 All,
 here is an interesting announcement from Nokia-Siemens this week:
 
 http://www.nokiasiemensnetworks.com/global/Press/Press+releases/news-archive/Nokia_Siemens_Networks_launches_pocket-sized_VoIP.htm
 I am surprised however that it is going to take until 3Q 2008 to get the 
 product out. I have to assume that the long pole in this tent is the 
 effort to get one or more mobile service providers to implement the 
 necessary functionality in their networks to work with this device, 
 which appears to be SIM card on a usb key.

Gotta love press releases. After reading oodles of that thickest of 
marketingspeak, I'm still not sure what this thing is supposed to do for 
me -- except cost me money :-)

Re: [maemo-users] Problem: automatic boot from off state

This is different case from original poster since your device was ON but

Oh, thanks for the correction.


I have created a wiki page about this information:
http://maemo.org/maemowiki/ReportingRebootIssues?action=show
Feel free to add more detailed instruction if you need.
In your case, some program was taking up all CPU, causing a watchdog
reset. What were you running before you let the device idle?


Most often that would be an xterm with Privoxy running in non-daemon 
mode. After a while the xterm goes poof and disappears with the 
Privoxy process still running in the background. Maybe that is part of 
the reason...


OTOH I'm almost sure there also have been auto-reboots when nothing 
special was (apparently) running. I'm going to try and confirm this over 
the weekend by manually rebooting to the default state and watching what 
happens if I don't use it over the next 48 hours...



Thanks for your help,

I'll post here the output of cat /proc/bootreason as soon as the 
auto-boot occurs again, let's hope it's going to occur soon (humm... 
well... really my hope is not so big ;)


Mine rebooted (while idle with the cover on) about 3 hours ago

Does that tell us anything ?
