[Pgui-devel] stuff missing out of profile.helio

There is stuff missing out of pgserver/profiles/profile.helio.  Well, ok its 
there.  But when you make menuconfig and specify CONFIG_OS_POSIX
it removes stuff like the input driver, mouse driver and application 
manager.

I added

< CONFIG_TEXT=y
< DEBUG_INIT=y
< CONFIG_FONTENGINE_BDF=y
< FONT_CLEAN12=y
< FONT_LUCIDA10=y
< FONT_CLEAN6=y
< FONT_HELVETICA8=y
< FONT_UTOPIA25=y
< CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN=y
< DRIVER_R3912TS=y
< DRIVER_SERIALMOUSE=y
< CONFIG_APPMGR_NULL=y

Is this reasonable for the Helio?  Especially DRIVER_SERIALMOUSE, I only 
added that since at startup pgserver complained about not being able to load 
a mouse driver.

When I flash all this to the Helio, pgserver still doesn't come up.  When I 
try to start it from the shell prompt on the Helio, I get:

# pgserver
pgserver_init:
operating system initpgserver_init:
configuration filespgserver_init:
command linepgserver_init:
error message tablepgserver_init:
input driverspgserver_init:
input filterspgserver_init:
videopgserver_init:
fontspgserver_init:
app manager*** ERROR (BADPARAM) : All installed application managers failed 
to l
oad

So, what should I use since CONFIG_APPMGR_NULL=y is wrong?

Ya know - we can skip all this if someone, anyone (Matt?)has a working 
profile.helio for picogui-0.43 and can mail it to me.

This is one of my gripes about the current build system- you can't specify
defaults for the configuration parameters. The current build system also has
some quirks, like the warnings on ./autogen.sh. Of course these things could
probably be fixed without too much hacking, but the current build system is also
very linux-centric, making ports to Win32, MacOS X, or IRIX a pain.

One of these days I'd like to completely redo pgserver's build system in clean,
OS-independent python code :)

DRIVER_SERIALMOUSE is unnecessary, but shouldn't cause any problems

Ah. Since pgserver can work with zero or more input drivers, this shouldn't
be necessary. It probably means you're using the wrong video driver.

Use the "panel" app manager.
However, the fact that the "null" appmgr failed to load probably means you don't have 
the
required widgets.

This would also be easier if we had a better config system that made the dependencies 
between
items clear, provided help for all items, and provided 'tasks' that could set up 
common options
for different platforms.
