the effect: a white screen with very very faint lines running through.the startup sound + sound effects are fine, but there's no display.i tried rebooting. i tried popping the battery in and out. i tried
reflashing via 'howtoflashwithmacosX' (and it finished flashingproperly, at least on the onscreen prompt).it's still in weird bright blank unusable display mode. anyone elsehave this problem?thanks!

[maemo-developers] desktop integration (resend)

2006-05-07 Thread Danny Milosavljevic

Hi,

Oookay...

I just spent four hours trying to find out how 
to integrate an application into the maemo
environment.

Now that was unneccesary and I'm giving up 
for now, hoping for help.

I ported a nice little program to maemo
(see http://www.scratchpost.org/nokia-770/packages/ ),
and it worked fine, when started from xterm.

When I tried to start by using the application 
menu, however, my osso_initialize call  
failed.

By now I tried every single one of the ~ 43000 (j/k)
combinations that could be valid in the
- desktop file
- service file content
- service file name
- osso_initialize call name
- osso_initialize call version
- osso_initialize call activation

And it just doesn't work.

For now I commented out the osso parts and now it 
can be launched from the menu. :)

However, stangely enough, now the application icon 
of the menu entry is gone. It was there before I
commented out the service stuff. I didn't comment 
out Icon=, it's still there.

Helppp :)

And before I don't forget, a few nitpickings about the
tutorial:

-
On
http://www.maemo.org/platform/docs/tutorials/Maemo_tutorial.html#LibOSSO-library
  there is no mention how the include file needed
  for libosso is called (until wy down).

- the osso_initialize example uses a partial 
  dbus service name only, and isn't the 
  third parameter deprecated by now?

- I sure hope the weird voodoo done by 
  osso_initialize (magically prefixing
  com.nokia.) is already gone? If not, it's 
  not mentioned. 

- And the example doesn't use com.nokia, 
  but org.maemo. Which would make it break in 
  mysterious ways.

- the valid chars in the dbus service name are not
  mentioned (and there is no NO DASHES warning)

- Icon #8211; Name of icon that represents this application 
  (in tutorial) says:
  Format of the file should be PNG and the prefix (.png) 
  should not be defined.

  That is probably a suffix, and my voodoo detector goes 
  off again.
  Don't ever do that. The file is called how it is called,
  no adding/removing stuff to *cough* simplify it please.

Phiew... now I need sleep. Good night :)

cheers,
  Danny

[maemo-developers] GStreamer

2006-05-07 Thread Jeremy Mcnicoll
I installed all the necessary files for working with GStreamer from here: http://maemo.org/maemowiki/EnablingGstreamerSupport?highlight=%28gstreamer%29
It is possible to run # gst-launch-0.8 filesrc location=/home/user/MyDocs/.videos/IceAge2_trailer.avi ! avidemux ! {queue ! ffmpeg_mpeg4 ! sdlvideosink } and the video plays just fine. 
But I would like to be able to play this using some other the dsp sinks that are on this machine. Like any one of these, gst-inspect-0.8 | grep 'sink'gnomevfs: gnomevfssink: GnomeVFS Sinksdlvideosink: sdlvideosink: Video sink

2006-05-07 Thread Kasper Souren

- is there a way to rescue the 'App installer' functionslity after
installing sthng as root,
and damaging the App. installer?


Probably, but I don't know exactly how.


is sudo gainroot and dpkg -X xxx.deb /var/lib/install a good way to
install further things? Are those further installations safe?


It's definitely not ideal. But if it keeps you from flashing every other day,
I'd say, why not? :)

[maemo-developers] (no subject)

2006-05-07 Thread Pinghang.Koon
Dear all,

I had been using GTK_STOCK_ITEMS, like some OK buttons and QUIT menu.
Is the GTK_STOCK_ITEM localized to different languages on Nokia 770?

When I changed to German Language, the text of GTK_STOCK_ITEM is still
English.
Should I avoid using GTK_STOCK_ITEM when I want to develop an i18n and
l16n application?
