On the off change you're still interested, I found the setting last night by reading through the source. :-). I'm running a clean install of QtMoko 26. ssh onto your Freerunner and then type: cd /home/root/Settings/Trolltech cp /opt/qtmoko/etc/default/Trolltech/PredictiveKeyboard.conf . echo "unpredictive=0" >> PredictiveKeyboard.conf Cheers, Iain ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: QtMoko predictive keyboard weirdness
I know this reply is >2 months late, but better late than never, right? Anyway, have you tried using the Docked Keyboard? I use it; it suggests completions based on the letters of a word entered so far. I do not know if this is what you meant by “predictive keyboard”, but it is sufficient for me. I am still using QtMoko v14 but, AFAIK, the Docked Keyboard’s behaviour has not changed since I started using QtMoko at v11. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: QTMoko predictive keyboard weirdness
I do not have an answer for you, except to tell you I am a native English speaker too and already use QtMoko (still using v14) as my primary (cellular) phone. However, I am curious: are you related to Evangelene Alaraj (nee Weatherill)? I noticed you used the Canadian/UK spelling of “behaviour”, so I thought you may live in Canada too. I live in Delta, British Columbia. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
QTMoko predictive keyboard weirdness
Hi everyone, first of all I have always found the QTMoko/QTopia distirbuytion to be the only really usable software on openmoko (SHR is now getting there slowly I suppose), so thanks :-D I have a few questions about QTMoko predictive keyboard. I know prediction was disabled by default a couple of versions ago, I understand this as most people are not english speakers. However, some of us ARE english speakers and found the predictive keyboard very good, so I tried to re-enable prediction on my new qtmoko (v15) install. When I perform the diagonal slide, all I get is a change in deletion behaviour (instead of left slide deleting only one character from the "Word bar", it deletes the entire word) - this is the behaviour I remember from the old predictive keyboard, except no prediction suggestions are displayed, the keyboard simply types whatever I hit, whether accidental or good. Can someone help me with this? Please please please - this is almost ready to be my daily phone now if this (and the incoming SMS bug of course) are fixed! thanks in advance Dan ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
