I've been playing with an older version of PA on my Nexus 7, and I've started trying to narrow down this issue. I'm not sure exactly why yet, but I've gathered a few clues about this: 1) The UI freezes because KWin starts throwing GL errors and stops updating the display. You can see the errors in the logs, but it is a generic error so I'm not sure what is causing it. 2) Killing/restarting KWin stops the errors and UI starts acting normally. It only happens with the first instance of KWin. 3) While KWin stops drawing, I believe that the UI continues to receive events, it just doesn't draw.

Re: pa on nexus 7 and now?
The only drawback of multirom, if you are new to this topic, are the error messages, when somethjing with the rom isnm't ok. I tried it yesterday again with your image, but without success. On the mer wiki is an image for multirom, you can extract it and use it as base, the only thing needed to be adjusted is the root.tar.gz file inside the rom folder. I just dom't know how to get the files for this root.tar.gz built right, yours don't work :-( Am 28.02.2013 00:28 schrieb Maurice de la Ferté kad...@gmx.de: Hi, On 27.02.2013 15:40, Daniel Kreuter wrote: Hi On Wed, Feb 27, 2013 at 12:13 AM, Maurice de la Ferté kad...@gmx.de wrote: Hi, On 26.02.2013 18:54, Hillel Lubman wrote: I use those and update over the network after switching the repositories.

This year’s theme is KDE++ aka polish everything so Kontact Touch seems to be a good candidate in my eyes. Now I am looking for a mentor and the right scope for my project. I want to do mostly UI work. Would porting things over to plasma-qml components be a good project? I am not sure how much work that will be and if I can manage to port every application of the suite in the given time. So maybe just focus on one or two? The UI seems to be designed with a smaller form factor in mind. Is it supposed to stay this way or am I free to experiment and make it more suitable for tablet use? One, maybe two parts would be best I think. I know, that KMail has already a versioon for PA, if there are other parts ported already, I don't know. cheers Mike ___ Active mailing list Active@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/active ___ Active mailing list Active@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/active
Re: Plasma Active Files Management and remote files / devices.
Am 26.02.2013 16:52 schrieb joseph.ana...@gmail.com: What are the current plans for handling remote files. Plasma Active is moving towards a tag based file management system, however how does this translate to using other devices such as portable hard drives, SD-cards and FTP servers. Nepomuk currently doesn't have a way of sending your tagging information to those devices so it can be referenced later(so all tagging information is lost) And currently there is no solution for this. For usb I agree, tere should be a way to tag those two (don't know if this is already possible). I currently see no use case for tagging files on other remote locations like ftp, but wouild be possible. Possible solutions, device tags: tags that are special and are associated with a device or location, so if a file is tagged it is automatically copied or moved. Furthermore, .nepomuk files basically hidden files similar to .thumbnails and other hidden service files that can be automatically moved when files are moved to a new location. They then can be read by any other PA or nepomuk computer and be used to automatically tag the files referenced so a user's tags aren't lost. Maybe you can use the url or uuid (in case of a remote location like ftp) and store this locally on yohr tablet. Since these locations won't change nepomuk would find them later. What are your thoughts, is this even a problem or something PA should care about? If so what are some other possible solutions? ___ Active mailing list Active@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/active ___ Active mailing list Active@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/active

What we really need is a Nexus 7 image with the current Plasma Active packages on it that can be installed; PA3 is good, but for development the current state of things would be more useful. in-place online upgrade from an installed PA3 to current devel is not tested at this point, so i am hesitant to suggest changing the zypper repos and doing a pull .. Since I'm using multirom for all foreign os other than the internal android, a pull would be worse a try, if it breaks I can simply remove it and reinstall it (and since its quite unasable because most input fieldss loose focus when you type on the virtual keyboard this won't be such a problem. How can I get my bugfixes to my device, wouild Qt Creator 2.7 work with remote devices like it' done with Ubuntu Touch? I haven't tested it, but Qt Creator should be able to connect over ssh (when sshd is enabled, which is something that now exists in the Settings app, but that is also post-PA3 ...). the Nexus 7 images are being done by Ruediger (who i've cc'd on this email). perhaps step 1 would be to get more people helping Ruediger with that so we can get a devel based i mage available. When I even knew how to build roms for multirom, I could help in spreading pa devel images by providing this rom. But until now I didn't find a guide on how to do it (I only have a template for the multirom installer, that's all) So long -- Aaron J.
