Re: netbook remix , 9.10 and Samsung Q1U
Following up on my own message. I have some evtouch calibration related issues left to deal with. The GUI calibration software appears to be still very unreliable. I had used it when it was more of a give it a try option but in the Ubuntu Software Center the evtouch drivers/configuration is installed under that title (very surprising to me). Its output created very strange behavior from flipped axes (common problem on ubuntuforums) to things that I can't explain which was as if it was trying to predict what I wanted to do so if I moved the stylus on a straight line the pointer would trail it and then surpass it and go forward. Anyway, by manually editing it and then re-doing it I was able to get it to work (I will post all these things when I am done). Now, I am having difficulty finding what to configure in order to get the touchpad/stylus combination behave as they did in the past. I want it to act as if I am continuously pressing button 1 (left button on most mice) when it is pressed and dragged. I was able to drag windows, draw using xournal etc before installing UNR, 9.10. I can't even figure out how to call this feature to search for a solution. One of the primary uses of Samsung Q1U for me to annotate pdf files in Xournal with a stylus. Now, I have to make sure that I touched the stylus at the position I want to start and on-device mouse left button pressed. Looking at Xev, when I touch the stylus, it detects ButtonPress and button 1, then when I keep it pressed it senses motion, when I lift it ButtonRelease so it is, I think, getting the right commands but the response in X is not as if I kept the button pressed continuously. Any ideas? Thanks, -- Ubuntu-mobile mailing list Ubuntu-mobile@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-mobile
Re: Jaunty Mobile
There is no separate UMPC release for Jaunty. In many ways, the goals of the UMPC flavour were identical to the goals of the Netbook Remix, and there were several sets of instructions on partially enabling the Netbook Remix interface for the UMPC release in intrepid. During the Jaunty cycle, the code and packages previously in the Netbook Remix were brought up to date and integrated with Ubuntu, resulting in a release as a flavour of Ubuntu, rather than a derivative. Those that prefer the previous interface are probably best served by installing Desktop, and then installing the intrepid ubuntu-mobile package. I'm not sure if this works (I haven't tried it). If someone wants to take over maintenance of the settings package and associated bits to work in Karmic, that is certainly a solution, but those previously maintaining it have merged their efforts with the Netbook Remix. I have just tried the Netbook Remix via live USB. I see that *some* bugs that haunted me with UMPC and intrepid were resolved -- for example, wireless now wakes up after suspend. This is on a Samsung Q1U. To my dislike, it still did not recognize the builtin cameras, did not turn the arrow keys into scrollers (I guess I still need to set the keycodes accordingly still), touch screen calibration froze the unit, I can not find an easy way to edit and reduce the clutter of the netbook interface. I guess this mailing list may not be the right place to report these anymore? Or is it?

: Feedback on Ubuntu Mobile , Samsung Q1 Ultra
Hello, With the help of various people here I was able to get my Samsung Q1 Ultra to work to my liking. Well mostly. One problem that I am still having is that , upon waking up from suspend, the wireless connectivity is lost. It looks like the network manager no longer recognizes the wireless device. This , at some point, led to a permanent problem which was resolved with one of the recent updates. Right now, it is no longer a permanent problem but is quite bothersome since suspend/awake cycle is something I use quite often. Any suggestions on how to debug is appreciated!

Re: More feedback on Ubuntu-Mobile
Hi Jason, Thanks for the tips. I think the issue you have with the arrow keys not acting like arrows on the Q1U is because they are mapped as up = F1, down = F3, right = F10, left = F9. One way you can change this is by editing: /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/30-keymap-misc.fdi I was gonna do this but decided to try to create my own as Oliver suggested but now I realize I still do not understand how hal behaves. I created a new file where Oliver suggested but I think the original location /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/30-keymap-misc.fdi is overwriting it. I include that file below. Another way to change the key mappings is to just run a script (as root) that does this: sudo setkeycodes e056 108 sudo setkeycodes e057 105 sudo setkeycodes e058 103 sudo setkeycodes e059 106 This does the job for me too and the scripting idea is interesting. Out of curiosity, how does one know the e056 type of information and the associated numbers? I know of xev but the numbers that it returns do no match those you list. Neither do they seem to match the standard codes for up arrow and such. Please excuse my ignorance :) Thanks for your suggestions!

Re: Feedback on Ubuntu Mobile - 7-9 device edition.
Hello all, Following up once more on my message about the mounting of USB sticks, SD cards via the internal card reader etc. I have found the problem. For some reason fstab had a line: /dev/sdb /media/crom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 00 This meant anything I inserted and got recognized as /dev/sdb was being mounted as a cdrom which ofcourse was not working. Removing that line solves the problem. I do not know why that line is included in the fstab by default. I did *not* ever use a CDROM on this device. It must be a distro image bug.

Re: Feedback on Ubuntu Mobile - 7-9 device edition.
I also found this somewhat confusing but i read the new wiki page at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MobileTeam/Mobile/History which has cleared things up Just to clarify things further. I am a Samsung Q1 ultra user and I have been using Ubuntu-Mobile since the initial release with reasonable success and a whole lot of complaints -- worst being the inability to suspend and hibernate. I am not really a developer, although, I hope to be useful as a tester and provide bug-reports and feedback. I guess it is time to try one of the new images. So, now there are two editions out there: ubuntu-MID ubuntu-mobile Both appear suitable for Samsung Q1. One is GNOME based which I kind of like because of familiarity but I was getting used to Hildon too. My questions are then: 1 - Can I upgrade from existing installation? If so, is it a dist-upgrade like regular ubuntu? Is it going to create troubles? (I have some amount of customization but not too much). 2 - Which of the two would work better on Samsung Q1?

I am may be missing something since all wiki etc pages seem somewhat outdated. --- http://www.stwing.upenn.edu/~durduran -- Ubuntu-mobile mailing list Ubuntu-mobile@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-mobile -- Ubuntu-mobile mailing list Ubuntu-mobile@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-mobile
