Kontact Touch GSOC Proposal
Hey everyone, here is the first draft of my GSOC proposal. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1z2jYE7ayKE8VHV2AylCxQobaX6XdJknzbCG_BOLsJFE/edit?usp=sharing In order for this to work, i need to be right about one assumption: Can I develop the UI against data that I define in a qml model like its done here: http://harmattan-dev.nokia.com/docs/library/html/qt4/qml-listview.html ? That would be really useful for prototyping. Please give your honest feedback, especially about the project scope.

Re: pa on nexus 7 and now?
Ok I now tried to get PA installed by replacing Android, but I get stuck. I followed the instructions on the mer wiki as well as on http://www.muktware.com/5239/how-install-kde-plasma-active-nexus-7 but when I try to boot into PA, the moslo kernel complains, that he cannot find the alternate kernel image. What did I do wrong? I can see that he looks for an image named root.tar.bz2 or root.tar.gz but doesn't find one.

Those images are the outcome of the kickstart integration work I descriped in 'kickstarts and adaptations' mail thread. However, they are not "official" and only get build automatically to verify if the generated kickstart files are correct. This publishing site may vanish soon and hopefully this part will take over by an official. >>> Nice work. Can this be done for multirom images as well?

Re: pa on nexus 7 and now?
Ok I finally got pa running. The images on that ftp stop booting when they come to X so not usable atm.

Hi Daniel, On 28.02.2013 21:36, Daniel Kreuter wrote: Ok I finally got pa running. The images on that ftp stop booting when they come to X so not usable atm. to be honest I'm not surprised thats something going wrong with current images build from generated kickstart files. It is hard to understand for most of interested people why a image what was build ones does not work anymore if you try to rebuild after a while. Well it is a bit off topic but those images are build from parts of three different parties (PA, Mer and Neno) and they all have different objectives and moving fast forward. It is greate to have a single time working snapshot image, but to keep it alive over a long time needs much effort and is another story. However, no reason not to try it but if something is going wrong I will need at least information about the image type you have tried. For example the devel image contain the most bleeding edge stuff all communities, but it is build straight way because all parts are build on the same Mer core base and should fit together. The testing based images is build in a hackish way atm, the PA and Mer part is based on an older proofed version any many parts of Nemo (the nexus7 adaption part) is based on a newer Mer. I think you have faced the X issue by trying the testing based image. To sort the issue out we need Logs, Error messages and some people who like to spent some time on maintenance work and give feedback.
