[maemo-developers] Correct place to enter N800 discount code?
Hello there. When I tried to order my N800 just now, the only place that I could see for entering the discount code was on the screen that you get to using the Use Promotional Code button on the order summary page. But when I entered my code in the box, I got a code not valid message. So... - Is that the right place to enter the code, or is there somewhere else? - Does the code validation depend on email address? Following the recommendation to use a work email address, I used my day job email, which is different from the email that Nokia sent the code to. - Does the validation perhaps depend on when in the process you click the use Promotional code button? I did it after selecting an Express Evening delivery - should I have done it before changing from the default delivery option, perhaps? - Has anyone else had a problem like this? And got past it? All thoughts gratefully received. Regards, Neil ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

Re: [maemo-developers] /usr/bin/metalayer-crawler eats my CPU
Yes, but my question is: is it really ok to have the whola filesystem being indexed? That could be fine with the default 128MB card. But with 4GB and (maybe) 8GB arriving? Being able to see which directories need to be monitored would be ok. I mean, I'm never going to put my media files in /etc or /usr and so on. Having only /home/user/MyDocs indexed would be enough IMHO. Larry Battraw wrote: From a xterm/ssh login session you can find out what it's indexing which is taking so long. First install sqlite3: sudo gainroot apt-get install sqlite3 Then run a query to see what's in the metadata table: cd ~user sqlite3 .meta_storage select filename from metadata That should give you a list of all the files it's indexed so far. You can always move or remove the .meta_storage file to see if that helps.

This is a kernel issue with Ubuntu 6.10 running on M, C3 and some other processors. I have a laptop with an M here. If I have some time this weekend I will try do a custom kernel as a boot option and hopefully that fixes it. This is because the 2.6.17-10-server kernel is compiled with HIGHMEM64G support, which requires PAE, but the Via C3 processor used on most Epias does not support PAE. You will have to use a kernel without HIGHMEM64G support (HIGHMEM4G will work, as will NOHIGHMEM). The same problem occurs on certain Pentium M CPUs. Most other CPUs since Pentium Pro support PAE.

But with 4GB and (maybe) 8GB arriving? Being able to see which directories need to be monitored would be ok. I mean, I'm never going to put my media files in /etc or /usr and so on. Having only /home/user/MyDocs indexed would be enough IMHO. As far as I know only /home/user is indexed. I've never seen it grab anything outside of that directory so I've had to create symlinks to stuff I wanted indexed.

Re: [maemo-developers] RFE: Seamless storage card integration to application
I don't agree that a card is the optimal place for application data. The biggest issue IMO is that cards are removable and interchangable, and users shouldn't have data mysteriously disappearing that they didn't explicitly put there themselves. Additionally, a card isn't (and shouldn't be) necessary at all. -- Just stop and take your secret journey, you will be a new box. --Leeta http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/shouldbefree.html ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
Re: [maemo-developers] Correct place to enter N800 discount code?

When I tried to order my N800 just now, the only place that I could see for entering the discount code was on the screen that you get to using the Use Promotional Code button on the order summary page. But when I entered my code in the box, I got a code not valid message. So... - Is that the right place to enter the code, or is there somewhere else? - Does the code validation depend on email address? Following the recommendation to use a work email address, I used my day job email, which is different from the email that Nokia sent the code to. - Does the validation perhaps depend on when in the process you click the use Promotional code button? I did it after selecting an Express Evening delivery - should I have done it before changing from the default delivery option, perhaps? Yes, the promotional code box is the correct location, and you input it on the same page you select shipping from. No, it's not specific to anything as far as I know --email address or otherwise-- since they did mention you could send it to someone else to use. I had problems when it wouldn't accept my credit card and marked the code as already having been used. I got around that by waiting for a little while. Larry ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers I also had the 'cannot accept the credit card' problem that Larry mentions, which had nothing to do with the credit card, but was a problem connected to the discount code. So I called the helpdesk number given along with the error. The second-level person there was familiar with the discount program and the problems (he had had five similar calls that day). He quickly ordered it for me, entering discount code, etc. You might also find calling easier, provided you get the right person.

The whole idea of the RFE, is to build an expected behavior through all the Maemo apps, so the mystery is likely to be replaced with expectation. Alternatively if this RFE is still any good, to store data on storage can be an option then to enable it by default, but such option should be integrated for an enhance and seamless usage. Think of your podcasts, voice memos etc., or if you roll out the camera and start making a long video how soon you will fill your built in disk ? Possibiliy most apps will let you browse and select location of storage into a folder, that is fair but buys me a job rather. Could we do it to some default (location) having this RFE in mind, by just selecting to opt for use storage card when available ?

Re: [maemo-developers] Python and maemo API documentation
Hi Álvaro, On 1/27/07, Álvaro J. Iradier [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I'm developing some python applications for Nokia 770, and I think documentation is not as good as I expected. 1) First, the code in the python tutorial in here: http://www.maemo.org/platform/docs/pymaemo/python_maemo_howto.html Yes, this document is deprecated now. Please, take a look at the new one at: http://maemo.org/platform/docs/python-bora/python_maemo_howto.html 2) I couldn't find docs for the Python Hildon API, but I looked at the maemo hildon API for C, it should be enough: We've a new API documentation to Hildon and LibOSSO in the package source files (I don't remember now what is the reason why this documents aren't uploaded to the site)... I'll upload it this Monday. Other entries, like API documentation control panel, status bar and home applets are empty too: http://www.maemo.org/platform/docs/api/maemo-af-desktop-sdk-doc/index.html (is this available in Python, by the way). No, unfortunately we don't have created bindings for Control Panel, Status Bar and Home Applets stuff. We have plans to make it until June. 3) I know 'help' command is not available in python for 770, but there should be another version for scratchbox with 'help' available. It would be very useful! Maybe it is already available and I missed it? We can't build two versions of the same package but you can use your distribution's Python to call help(). We don't include docstrings inside the Maemo bindings (hildon and osso modules).
