 Hi,
 
 
The screen is brilliant and bright enough for day use. However it
is currently not possible to rotate the content.
 
 
 In the SDK it's easy to test how rotating the screen affects Maemo.
 Just use 'xrandr' to rotate / resize the Xephyr screen and see how
 the SW and gfx works in portrait mode...
 
 If HW doesn't support rotation, all operations need to go through
 X shadow framebuffer which can slow down things considerably.

Matthew Allum pointed me to a patch that can help with this sort of
thing: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4537
We are using an adapted patch for kdrive in OpenEmbedded for devices
where the real framebuffer doesn't match the orientation of the screen.

regards,

Koen

Activating logging was a very good idea and solutes my problem.
It says:

Often there are the easiest things which went wrong: I added a space at 
the password in one file, at the other not. after fixing that, it works.

Thanks for your help, guys!

Is there some chance to have it faster for 180 degree rotation (i.e. for 
left handed people using N770) preferably without shadow buffer?


For 180 degree rotation writing to place framebufferstart+x means in 
fact writing to place framebufferend-x, correct? Can this be done 
transparently without additional copy of framebuffer on some abstraction 
level?

Re: [maemo-developers] How to install/start python

2005-11-04 Thread Martin Grimme
Am Freitag, den 04.11.2005, 16:30 + schrieb
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:
 I tried to install the python package (from sourceforge 
 http://sourceforge.net/projects/pymaemo/ ) on my N770. But the device said 
 that the package is already installed.
 Afterwards I tried to start python on the device (typing python on the X 
 Terminal) but it seems not to be there.
 What is going wrong?
 How can I execute an python script on the N770?

I think package is integrated means that the package attempts to
install files outside of /var/lib/install, which is forbidden on
the Nokia 770. The Python deb package was made for maemo and not for
the device. You can unpack the package manually and copy the files
in place. Or even put the files into your home directory if you
don't want to mess with the root file system. In that case you
have to adjust the LD_LIBRARY_PATH env variable to include the
path to the Python interpreter library.
If you need more information about installing Python into your
home directory on the device, I can give you a detailed description
how I did this.

[maemo-developers] U.S. developer devices query

2005-11-04 Thread Roger Sperberg
Now that the Nokia 770 is already for sale in Europe, and sales are
reported to begin next Friday in the U.S., I'm wondering if the
developer devices for non-E.U. countries are being made available?

Are there any U.S.-based developers who have gotten their code? Or non-E.U.-based developers?

Thanks. If anyone from Nokia would care to provide hard information, that would be especially welcome.

Roger

[maemo-developers] WLAN problem after upgrade to 2005.42-9

2005-11-04 Thread trfm64q02
Hi,

after the upgrade to 2005.42-9 my N770
couldn't connect to my WLAN router (fritz box 7050 firmware 14.03.88).
With 2005.40-18 it was no problem to connect to the box (WPA).
Has someone else the same problem?
I'm perplexed because I entered the same data.
In the meantime I flashed the old version 2005.40-18  :-( 

Best Regards
 Olli

Re: [maemo-developers] How to install/start python

2005-11-04 Thread trfm64q02
Hi,

 Florian Boor florian.boor-at-kernelconcepts.de |maemo|:

 that's not really true: The Application Installer takes care of this on its 
 own.
 Usually this message means that the package doesn't depend on maemo. There 
 is
 some script around to fix these dependencies the AI doesn't like.

Which script do you mean?
Can you please tell me (exact) what I have to do to install python on my N770?

Thanxs
 Olli

Re: [maemo-developers] U.S. developer devices query

2005-11-04 Thread Rui Carmo
Well, it isn't available in all European countries. Portugal has been skipped, despite our penchant for being early adopters, 104% mobile penetration, Eur. 30/month 3G flat rate data plans, a massive Nokia presence in the handset market, and more ADSL and Wi-Fi access than you'd probably expect...I posted the question to maemo-users yesterday, but having had no replies, I'll try again here (and apologise for the general broadcast) - any way of buying one in Portugal? Anyone in Nokia that I can reach to get some feedback on this?Thanks,Rui Carmohttp://the.taoofmac.comOn Nov 4, 2005, at 5:00 PM, Roger Sperberg wrote:Now that the Nokia 770 is already for sale in Europe, and sales are reported to begin next Friday in the U.S., I'm wondering if the developer devices for non-E.U. countries are being made available?
