[SHR-U] Keyboard layouts for extremely fat fingers
I have created two keyboard layouts for the illume keyboard. They are available from this repository: http://glitch.tl/cgi-bin/hgwebdir.cgi/home/host/glitch.tl/repos/openmoko-keyboards/file/tip The layouts each have keys as large as I can make them. I found the existing layouts to be of little use without a stylus.

Re: [SHR-U] Keyboard layouts for extremely fat fingers
Hi I have created two keyboard layouts for the illume keyboard. They are available from this repository: Very nice. I want it. I guess I'll try http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Illume_keyboard#How_to_install_a_new_layout That didn't work all that nice :-( Tried to install them next to raster's keyboards, but they appeared all empty. Then I replaced rasters keyboard with these, but Enlightenment segfaulted, had to restart, lost my ssh into the brick and Enlightment wouldnt get back up .. ouch .. anyway The trick is, the files shouldnt start with comments. I removed the first 4 lines (so it starts with ##KBDCONF-1.0) and they work like a charm. Can't really run them side by side with Raster's, because the keyboard's canvas sizes are different; apparently, enlightenment chooses the canvas size of the first keyboard it finds and sticks to that. I have them all working now, but raster's keyboards are swimming in a pool of empty greyness. Great though - I'll stick to those. thanks! *-pike ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

At first boot you can add applications to quicklauncher (?). If I remember correctly Mplayer was set there as default. I am not sure if that is the correct name. I don't know exactly how you can remove the applications from there. I had the same problem. There are some more .desktop files under your home directory in some hidden subfolder (if I remember it was ~/.local/share/applications/). just look for them with find -name *.desktop from your home folder and u will find also the mplayer.desktop file. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Then I replaced rasters keyboard with these, but Enlightenment segfaulted, had to restart, lost my ssh into the brick and Enlightment wouldnt get back up .. ouch .. anyway The trick is, the files shouldnt start with comments. I removed the first 4 lines (so it starts with ##KBDCONF-1.0) and they work like a charm. Can't really run them side by side with Raster's, because the keyboard's canvas sizes are different; apparently, enlightenment chooses the canvas size of the first keyboard it finds and sticks to that. I have them all working now, but raster's keyboards are swimming in a pool of empty greyness. Great though - I'll stick to those. Oops sorry about that. I added the comments at the after I tested the last version. Bad luck finding a bug like that. I noticed that the keyboard window retains the geometry given to it by my larger keyboard layout. This was the reason why I started to update the numeric layout to the same size as the alphanumeric one.

Re: [SHR-U] Keyboard layouts for extremely fat fingers
Hi I occasionally need the terminal layout so I may attempt a new version of that one as well. actually the 'type' of Alpha.kbd is set to 'TERMINAL' instead of 'ALPHA'. I haven't noticed any difference though. I think it's the quotes around the second character that makes it use the dictionray prediction. One character I was instantly missing was the :. I had to use the 'Terminal' layout to type a smiley :-) Thanks! *-pike ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

I had to use the 'Terminal' layout to type a smiley :-) Yes I did that because I was trying to inhibit the predictive behaviour of the alphabetical keyboard to make it more like the terminal keyboard. I wrote these layouts for my wife so she could use the phone without a stylus. She has a strong dislike for predictive T9 style input methods. On her Motorola she prefers to press every key three times when typing an SMS. She is traveling soon but decided not to take the openmoko because it doesn't have a UI to display sent SMS messages. Also it was a bit tricky to use. I will set those layouts to the correct type and reissue them in the next couple of days. I will also see what I can do about the colon character. -- Michael Smith Network Applications www.netapps.com.au | +61 (0) 416 062 898 Web Hosting | Internet Services signature.asc Description: PGP signature ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

ElmDentica 0.7.0 is out!
Hi everyone! ElmDentica hasn’t had a new release for a while (*cough*cough* proving it works so well *cough*cough*), so I though I should share with you the new stuff in the development of this release. The news are: * Replacement of the side buttons by hover’s fired up by pressing for * about 1s over the bubble * Usage of inwins for entering user and domain data in the settings * window * Usage of hoversel to gain a few more space on the toolbar, specially * for future features http://files.1407.org/openmoko/elmdentica/elmdentica-0.7.0-scap.png http://files.1407.org/openmoko/elmdentica/elmdentica-0.7.0-scap-2.png So that’s about it… you can get the package from the usual places, the project’s web-site, by upgrading shr-unstable as it upgrades elmdentica on next autobuild, building it yourself, etc… * http://elmdentica.googlecode.com/files/elmdentica-0.7.0.tar.gz * http://elmdentica.googlecode.com/files/elmdentica-0.7.0.tar.gz.asc * http://elmdentica.googlecode.com/files/elmdentica_0.7.0-r4_armv4t.ipk * http://elmdentica.googlecode.com/files/elmdentica_0.7.0-r4_armv4t.ipk.asc Enjoy! :) Rui ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Also, there are going to be areas on the edge of coverage where your phone can detect the signal, but reception would be very poor (frequent drop outs c). So the distribution of cell towers will reflects that - enough so there's always one you get good coverage from, and incidentally there will always be some more distant ones your phone can recognise. If I'm understanding this right, the phone may be registering with these more distant towers, which might beg the why question. But it's likely the cell companies have lots of towers with overlapping coverage, so it's surely not a problem.
