[E-devel] slow transition ad the edje app

2009-02-10 Thread Oguz Yarimtepe
Hi,

I was testing a very simple transition effect on my box. The effect occured
in a very slow way.

Here is the EDC file: http://rafb.net/p/1MF9Al16.html
And the C file using it to make animation. When a key is pressed i should
have seen the transition.: http://rafb.net/p/BdSNUD18.html

I cross compiled EFLs. I just compiled and installed imlib2, e,na, eet,
evas, ecore, embryo and edje. I have directfb support on the box:

# fbset -i

tmu0_clk: 18.75MHz

Any idea why is the transition so slow?

I checked the top output when i was running the app, when the transition
started, the app consumed %90 of CPU power.
I also installed directfb-1.0.0 examples on the box and df_neo is working
quiete nice without any slow motion.

Will be happy if you guide a little.

use: keyword ":" value for edc, "," will be deprecated. like "color:
255 255 255 255"

Have you cross compiled the libs with -O2 or -Os? Going without
compile flags is bad.

mine is 332 bogomips, but arm xscale.

make sure it is using dfb acceleration and no DBF_USE_EVAS_* is set,
since they would use software and it's almost impossible to paint
1024x768 at 60Hz using 296 bogomips processor :-)



> Will be happy if you guide a little.

It would be nice to compile expedite and check results. It will test
most common operations and you can use that to compare with other
systems.

[E-devel] Suggestions

2009-02-10 Thread Amitav Mohanty
Hello

I would like to share a few suggestions towards improve user experience 
in E. I am open to comments.

1. In the "Open With" menu, the applications are alphabetically sorted. 
I think this can be made more intuitive by ignoring case. I would like 
to exemplify to make myself clear.
What we get is something like the following:
KTorrent
KWrite
Kaffeine
Kerberos

Ignoring case, would put Kaffeine and Kerberos above the other two.

2. I am used to selecting complete words with Ctrl+Shift+(left or right 
arrow). However, in E I found only Shift+(arrow key) working to let me 
select one character at a time.

3. In the Run Command field, Home button is not functional.

4. In the Run field, applications are matched with the search string and 
usually there is a match before the search string is completed (I 
consider a match when only one application is shown above the search 
field). In that situation we again have to click on the application to 
start it. I would like to have the functionality of having the same 
effect by pressing 'Enter' when there is only one match left.

I like the black and white theme more than the bling theme. It reminds 
me of sda's theme: 23Oz.

Regards

[E-devel] Eterm hanging after kernel upgrade to 2.6.28.x

2009-02-10 Thread Lars Braeuer
Hi,

after upgrading to a 2.6.28.3 vanilla Kernel (from 2.6.27.15), Eterm won't 
startup correctly and is
unusable. xterm, aterm and other terminals are working properly.

I tried the following Eterm versions:
0.9.4.0debian1-2
0.9.5 (self compiled, but using the libast package from debian)

Description: When starting the Eterm binary, the Eterm window *seems* to open 
up as normal. It's
showing a random background image, the menu appears and is usable (i.e. 
transparency settings can be
changed).

But now it's hanging. The shell is not opening up. You can type letters in the 
window, but there's
no shell. If you check out the process listing, Eterm is running at around 99.x 
%CPU.

You can wait a long time, nothing is happening.

Whenever you just close the window using the "X" button, the process keeps 
"hanging" around.
If you hit CTRL+C in the window, it's exiting properly.

All necessary PTY and TTY in the kernel are enabled:

# zcat /proc/config.gz | grep PTY
CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS=y
CONFIG_LEGACY_PTYS=y
CONFIG_LEGACY_PTY_COUNT=256

/dev/pts is mounted and working.

I'm actually using the very same kernel config I used along with the 2.6.27.15.

Not sure if there's any major change in the kernel config.

Best,

Lars
