Re: Testing feeds
Hi all, After some more research: a) issues: 1)cannot scroll in the settings normally. Meaning that even if you scroll, it will also click in the end. When scrolling should not click. Also the scroll bar is not working properly (does not appear when needed and it is in my oppinion reversed). 2) after I close paroli, I cannot access the settings menu any longer. It is only on my installation? 3) the back button in the settings should be bigger as it is hard to touch with the finger. b) 1 suggestion: Can we have more things in the settings? It would be great to be able to turn on/off the GPS also. c) when unregistering from the GSM network or closing the paroli, does it turn off the gsm also (to save battery)? what about putting Wifi in inactive. does it turn it off ? (to save battery again). On Sun, Jun 14, 2009 at 9:37 PM, Risto H.

No, it's not only your installation: settings is part of paroli. No paroli - no settings. 3) the back button in the settings should be bigger as it is hard to touch with the finger. I think this will be also fixed any time.. b) 1 suggestion: Can we have more things in the settings? It would be great to be able to turn on/off the GPS also. Why this? GPS is turned automatically of by FSO when GPS is requested by a application.

Nice to hear :) I had only few less important issues till now: a) cannot simply disable the suspend. I tried to put suspend time -1 in the settings window, but did not work; I tried to write directly in /etc/frameworkd.conf suspend=0 , still did not work. Finally I edited /etc/freesmartphone/oevents/rules.yaml and put instead of suspend ssuspend and the rule never gets true. Yes, there's something wrong in the image now. The only way to disable suspend is to connect it to recharger/computer over USB.. I hope this'll be fixed during the next 24 hours.. c) in both midori and firefox, if you set it to full screen and diable the menu bar, there is no way to close the application. Reboot is the only option. Or ssh in and kill the app. The same goes for some PDF viewers: full screen is a no-go.. Please let the app devels know this.. d) did not find how to put the landscape view (especially for browsing) Not supported yet, but xrand should do it (command line) e) did not find any web page on the web with step by step mp3 support (I know it is not supposed to be available in the officail feeds) Right, not supported. To cut long story short: intall the unstable and have fun.

Reboot is the only option. I'll bore again a bit, sorry for topic deviation, please follow up in the related thread on community list better handling of aux and power buttons. On 2007.2, hackable:1 and may be no other distros, the aux button if long pressed shows a menu that let you rotate the display, switch fullscreen mode of current active window while a short power button press lets you close it. This simple tasks are VERY useful on a so limited hardware buttons device and I do not understand well why this was abandoned in ASU, SHR, and now in 2009.x. In these days I'm trying to rewrite the neod daemon to use it on FSO/E based distro, but just discovered (or at least it seems to be) that E17 lacks support for _NET_CLOSE_WINDOW and other similar WM messages, so only Illume topbar may close an application (see Illume and wmctrl on devel list). I guess that's one of the reason for loosing that. Please correct me if I'm wrong but it seems that applications (paroli itself for example) uses FSO or direct access to /dev/input/event to gain keystrokes monopolizing them, this should be avoided and applications should receive them only by X when have focus! Really I'm not able to understand of those practices in all the OM world and think we should discuss to reorganize that. My 2 cents.

Hi, I've installed OM2009 from the http://downloads.openmoko.org/repository/unstable/*** feed and I can say that it's great. I had only few less important issues till now: a) cannot simply disable the suspend. I tried to put suspend time -1 in the settings window, but did not work; I tried to write directly in /etc/frameworkd.conf suspend=0 , still did not work. Finally I edited /etc/freesmartphone/oevents/rules.yaml and put instead of suspend ssuspend and the rule never gets true. b) cannot make midori skip showing the warning that you are a superuser c) in both midori and firefox, if you set it to full screen and diable the menu bar, there is no way to close the application. Reboot is the only option. d) did not find how to put the landscape view (especially for browsing) e) did not find any web page on the web with step by step mp3 support (I know it is not supposed to be available in the officail feeds) To cut long story short: intall the unstable and have fun.
