maemo.org mailing moved to new servers
Hi, After a bit of unexpected struggle Niels and myself got the mail services moved to the new servers. Thanks Niels for the help! Some emails you sent during the last one hour or so might have got lost. They are somewhere on a relay server (not in our hands) and may never end up on the lists server. If this is the case then I would kindly ask you to re-post those mails and I also apologize for the inconvenience. Otherwise hope the new servers will serve the mail traffic just fine. ferenc -- maemo.org sysadmin, developer email: fer...@maemo.org ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

Yes, but that still doesn't preclude using mirrors. Akamai goes down too. As for Akamail problems, would you don't mind privately e-mailing your rough location on the planet, I can try to find out why Akamai seems to be breaking a lot for you?

any way to get incoming call number to python?
Hi I am starting to develop an app to maemo, my friend is doing similar one to nokia s60 and he told this is the thing one must start with. Is getting incoming call number doable with dbus? if not, is there other ways? Links to any documents relevant are also appreciated.

RE: any way to get incoming call number to python?
I would suggest running dbus-monitor and calling your cellphone to see what happens. I did this, capturing the output to a file and got the output listed below. It appears as if the strings org.freedesktop.Telepathy.Channel.InitiatorID and org.freedesktop.Telepathy.Channel.TargetID both contain the incoming phone number. I have not worked with python and dbus, but it seems like this should contain the clues necessary to get the needed information. I did, however, also look at the database /home/user/.rtcom-eventlogger/el.db This is an sqlite3 database that can be queried after the fact from Python to receive information about phone calls. I talked a little bit about this in my blog post #N900 mbarcode, python, sms and sqlite3 http://www.orient-lodge.com/node/3896 Hope this helps.

Re: Semi-transparent background for Desktop Widget (Python + Cairo)
Nevermind, I figured out how to do this. What was basically required was using cairo itself to draw the images (IImageSurface's) to the screen where the eventboxes were, instead of trying to use gtk.Image's. Once I realized that, it was actually quite easy :) Thanks for the help getting it all working! On Thu, Dec 24, 2009 at 2:50 PM, Brent Chiodo bchi...@gmail.com wrote: Thank you very much! It is working well, now. There is only one minor issue: When I do this the widget is nicely transparent, but what I'm packing into the widget remains opaque. I took a screenshot: http://img192.imageshack.us/img192/5650/cairo.png What is going on is: there are two gtk.Image's shown. They are both packed into gtk.EventBox's which is packed into a gtk.VBox which is added to the widget itself. How would I go about making everything but the actual image transparent? (the two images are transparent png's so I do not believe that is what is causing the black opaque boxes). If you need the actually code (which is a bit sloppy at the moment) I'll be glad to clean it up and send it along. You've been a great help, thanks so much! P.S. Merry Christmas!

maemo-optify-deb lib symlink problem
I built a simple package that is a plugin for pidgin called pidgin-otr. When I maemo-optify-deb it, it creates a symlink to itself. * I did the standard easy optification: echo auto debian/optify * The package built/installed fine in scratchbox: [sbox-FREMANTLE_ARMEL: ~] ls -l /usr/lib/pidgin/pidgin-otr.so -rw-r--r-- 1 jebba jebba 81072 Jan 5 14:09 /usr/lib/pidgin/pidgin-otr.so * I removed package. * I then optified: [sbox-FREMANTLE_ARMEL: ~] maemo-optify-deb pidgin-otr_3.2.0-7_armel.deb pidgin-otr: optified 10 entries, saving about 185 kB. dpkg-deb: building package `pidgin-otr' in `pidgin-otr_3.2.0-7_armel.deb'. * I then installed optified package. [sbox-FREMANTLE_ARMEL: ~] ls -l /usr/lib/pidgin/pidgin-otr.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 jebba jebba 39 Jan 5 14:55 /usr/lib/pidgin/pidgin-otr.so - /opt/maemo/usr/lib/pidgin/pidgin-otr.so But here is where the problem came in: [sbox-FREMANTLE_ARMEL: ~] ls -l /opt/maemo/usr/lib/pidgin/pidgin-otr.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 jebba jebba 39 Jan 5 14:55 /opt/maemo/usr/lib/pidgin/pidgin-otr.so - /opt/maemo/usr/lib/pidgin/pidgin-otr.so The optified file is symlinking to itself, thus breaking the package. I'll leave this directory here for awhile if someone wants to check it out. It is my live scratchbox: http://www.freemoe.org/users/jebba/scratchbox/pidgin-otr-OPTIFY_PROB/ The two different .debs for comparison are here: pidgin-otr_3.2.0-7_armel.deb-NOOPTIFY pidgin-otr_3.2.0-7_armel.deb-OPTIFY I made minimal changes to the upstream Sid package.

Finger-Friendly Entry Completion/ComboboxEntry
I'm trying to add search history support to a hildon.Entry but am having a bit of trouble. In short, I want to have the user type into the entry and if what they are typing is present in their history, have a list appear showing what their current entry matches in their history. If the user taps on an item in the list, it should set the entry to that value (basically a gtk.ComboboxEntry that is populated based on what the user has currently entered into the entry). Looking through the PyGTK widgets, it seemed that a gtk.EntryCompletion was exactly what I was looking for. I tried creating a hildon.Entry and using the .set_completion() method to set the entry but that doesn't appear to work very well. The main problems are: 1) The generated list doesn't seem to popup reliably (sometimes it will, sometimes it won't) 2) The rows in the popup aren't clickable -- you can select them via the up/down then return buttons on the keyboard, but are not directly clickable. 3) The rows aren't finger-friendly at all (not that you can click them anyway...) So, how would I go about creating the above? It is doable, because I pretty much need to know how to make something like the builtin browser uses in it's toolbar (actually, the browser search bar is exactly what I want to implement, I just don't know what widget(s) are required to do it).

Disabling Desktop Notifications
Hi all, Is it possible to disable the connection notifications when the device boots up? The notifications I am interested in disabling are: -When the device is connected to DUMMY automatically (Connected to dummy) -When the device is looking to connect to phone (Searching for phone...) -When the device failed to connect to any phones (Could not find phone) I understand that all the notifications are called to the Notification D-Bus Service, and it's probably not possible to disable certain notifications, but at the very least I'd be happy to know if I can turn off the notification d-bus service.

Re: Failure with Claws PGP on maemo5 device n900
Hubertus, As I said, the self-symlinking of the plugins is a result of a bug in Maemo auto-optification. The PGP plugins are part of the claws-mail package. If I were to unoptify that it would take up a considerable amount of the precious space available on the device root -_-. Since the problem I forwarded you *is* the cause of the problem, and the actual .deb is thus fine, here's what I recommend you do: - Download the claws-mail-pgp-plugins ARMEL deb ( http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/pool/fremantle/free/c/claws-mail/claws-mail-pgp-plugins_3.7.3-1maemo4_armel.deb ). - ar x claws-mail-pgp-plugins_3.7.3-1maemo4_armel.deb - tar xvzf data.tar.gz - rm /opt/maemo/usr/lib/claws-mail/plugins/pgp* - cp usr/lib/claws-mail/plugins/pgp* /opt/maemo/usr/lib/claws-mail/plugins That should get you the real files. Hopefully the Maemo folks will work quickly to resolve this (pretty terrible) bug. Bryan Jacobs On Tue, 05 Jan 2010 23:46:48 +0100 Hubertus Bergmann hubertus.bergm...@web.de wrote: Hi Bryan, aha.
