I know, actually many of the classes could go away if the game is as simpe as this one. But it can give us some feedback if it's feasible to run a sidescroller with this hardware. It'll not unless there is some optimizations. Anyway, much games doesn't need to be side scrolling or that kind of scroll... I repaint the whole screen every time, what could be done is scroll the screen a bit more once and keep it fixed for 2-4 seconds, then use dirty rectangles to make it fast! Anyway, I always planned a Sokoban pygame, maybe it's time to code it and Battleship. But I don't promise anything soon since my job is demanding some work these days and I'm also trying to run Opie(Qt-based pda environment) on the emulator (will need some feedback on how good it runs with the real device) and also the MAS (www.mediaapplicationserver.net) development which I hope to help soon. -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri --- Computer Engineer 2001 - UNICAMP GPSL - Grupo Pro Software Livre Cell..: +55 (19) 9165 8010 Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ#: 17249123 MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Skype: gsbarbieri GPG: 0xB640E1A2 @ wwwkeys.pgp.net ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
[maemo-developers] non-gtk app integration
I managed to get a non-gtk app to integrate with the taskswitcher. Here's a screenshot: http://www.twpo.com.au/cwarrens/n770/mandelbrot.jpeg Non-gtk apps just needs to use _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW and _NET_CLIENT_LIST atoms, as well as following the maemo integration instructions. Also, this code in property_notify_handler() in windowmanager.c is a problem since gdk_get_default_root_window isn't correct in a non-gtk app context: if (determine_window_type(pev->window) != NORMAL_WINDOW && pev->window != GDK_WINDOW_XID(gdk_get_default_root_window()) ) { gdk_error_trap_pop(); return; } When the icon is pressed the wm sends _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW to the app. presumably the app then needs to intercept this message and bring its self to the top.

This depends largely on the options you use to create the PDB book. I tried with the maemo tutorial which also includes quite somescreenshots and the most reasonable result I could get was to tell plucker to reduce the colors to 16 shades of grey.

There is any reason? Scratchbox is a complex piece of software; it's actually closer to an operating system than an application. There are a few reasons why things are like they are: Scratchbox's host tools (including compilers) are dynamic binaries that need to work in the sandbox where the root filesystem is dominated by the contents of the target filesystem. The host tools are linked so that they find correct host libraries from under /scratchbox instead of trying to link against ARM/whatever libraries found in /lib and /usr/lib. The host tools can also be used outside the sandbox environment, so the library location must be the same in either case for that to work. Being able to use the toolchains from outside is handy, but moving the Scratchbox installation directory to a more suitable place is often more important. I have done some preliminary work for making the installation and login process work even when /scratchbox doesn't exist outside the sandbox; the work should be fairly simple to complete. A bigger problem (from my perspective) is the fact that Scratchbox can only be built directly to its installation directory. The tools fail to configure and/or build when things are not in correct places. I worked on this problem last year, but in the end it seemed next to impossible to fix--I don't remember the specific problems anymore. This problem could also be solved by building most of the tools inside the sandbox (like sb-perl-devkit and sb-toolchains are built), but then we'd also have to build all libraries and tools that are used during the build (i.e. Linux from scratch). Using autotools for building Scratchbox would be a bit pointless because the Scratchbox build procedure is not something automake or autoconf solve. Scratchbox is mostly just a set of upstream packages that already have autotools-based build systems; we just have to build them with correct settings (and patches) in the correct order. We use the GAR system[1] which is specifically designed for this. (GAR is a bit messy because it uses make; I'd one day like to replace it with a scons[2]-based build system...) [1] http://www.lnx-bbc.org/garchitecture.html [2] http://www.scons.org/ We (Lauri Leukkunen, Veli Mankinen and myself) have plans[3] for a complete redesign of Scratchbox which (among other things) solves all of the problems you mentioned. We're hoping to write a more elaborate Scratchbox 2.0 design document in near future. But any help in improving the existing versions is naturally welcome. :) [3] http://scratchbox.org/~tsavola/sb2-outline.txt I'm posting this message to scratchbox-devel so that we can continue the discussion on a more suitable mailing list. timo ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

Apologies for the long time to release these packages and the apt repository. We had technical problems with our server and hope it doesn't happen again. We expect short release time. Changes: * Our packages are now marked as indt release like python2.4-2.4.1-2indt4 * Python optimized modules (.pyo) are now inserted in one Zip file (/usr/lib/python24.lib) to squeeze size. * Python readable modules (.py) are now in a sub package. * PyGTK is now working with ATK. * First release of Python bindings for Hildon. * Small fixes in PyGTK and PyGame packages. If you like to use our apt repository add to /etc/apt/sources.list # Official repository deb http://www.indt.org.br/maemo/repository/ indt main deb-src http://www.indt.org.br/maemo/repository/ indt main or # Mirror deb http://evolutum.gotdns.com/repository/ indt main deb-src http://evolutum.gotdns.com/repository/ indt main We had the opportunity to test PyGame in Nokia 770.

Yes, I know this solution, but: /scratchbox breaks LSB... since it's hardcode, make it to /opt at least. and the build system also doesn't make it easy to change the install prefix. -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri --- Computer Engineer 2001 - UNICAMP GPSL - Grupo Pro Software Livre Cell..: +55 (19) 9165 8010 Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ#: 17249123 MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Skype: gsbarbieri GPG: 0xB640E1A2 @ wwwkeys.pgp.net ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

You might either use softlinks or use the mount option "-bind" which allows relocating part of the directory tree. Mounting /usr/scratchbox to /scratchbox might do the trick. But be aware that you have to set some softlinks afterwards to make everything compile properly.

[maemo-developers] build system
Hello, I use a system where / doesn't have much space, but I have some spare in /mnt/extra, so I want to install maemo/scratchbox in /mnt/extra/maemo/, however everything is hard coded to /scratchbox. While trying to build it by hand and also create an ebuild (Gentoo), I've found out that many other things are hard coded and the build process is not that usual (ie: doesn't use autotools and stuff like that). There is any reason? Is anyone working to improve this situation?

There is nothing about a processor that makes it big or little endian: the difference is in how the memory interfaces are wired. Some processors, such as the Hitachi/Renesas SH series, can have different memory areas set to different endianesses!

[maemo-developers] french university, nokia, maemo, sponsor.
Hi, We're students at the university of Orléans (France). We have just opened and inaugurated a bradn new open source software mirror (http://www.etud-orleans.fr/, mirroring GPL, BSD-Like,...). The site is hosted on a dedicated serveur but the FTP mirror is on the University Data Center (622Mbps fiber connection, Renater Network...) Well. We have a non-profit foundation and would like to concentrate on developping application for meamo. We are all running Linux, Debian and Fedora. We already manage dedicated servers for several non-profits foundations too. Our roadmap would be to first package the maemo for the distributions we use, translate to french the maximum of the documentation then begin creating little applications, then grow slowly. We will also plan to port some interesting applications such as VLC (http://www.videolan.org, which has a port on iPAQ/Familiar-Linux) What we miss is the phones: We need phones to test our developpement. We are still "little" to buy the devices. How would you suggest us to be sponsorised? Things we can do is to advertise for Nokia on our website, and advertise student to buy Nokias. We could also wear Nokia T-Shirts, make some marketing... Have you got some tips? A contact, an E-Mail address,... Thank you. -- Miroir de logiciels libreshttp://www.etud-orleans.fr Universite d'Orleans http://www.univ-orleans.fr ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
Re: [maemo-developers] Maemo Live 0.5a available

Yes, I sussed that a few days ago, and tried again. But stupidly, I gave a new user name rather than sticking with knoppix. I added my new user to the sbox group, randomly copied stuff from the knoppix scratchbox users home to the new users home, but decided that (another) reinstall from scratch was the best bet. Or I may just work through the whole install instructions (now I have everything downloaded) on a fresh Ubuntu install.

In 770, it's much more convenient to use the panning feature for scrolling the web page instead of the scroll bars.
