PyQt and Dbus
Hi, does anybody know how I can get python-qt4-dbus on Maemo 5? Is there an unoffical source? Is it difficult to port it from debian?

Re: which toolkit/framework is best for Game UI
Hi Ville, Am Sonntag, den 13.12.2009, 21:45 +0200 schrieb Ville M. Vainio: PyQt is still available, and PySide status is not quite so unclear as you may think. Thanks for lighten me up. So I can use without fear PyQt or PySide in Maemo5? Considering that it will take some time to develop your program in the first place, Qt would still seem like the path of least resistance. You can make it a normal PyQt program on desktop, do a quick search/replace port to PySide and deploy on device. Or just use the PyQt version on the device. A friend told me, he could install and run PyQt in scratchboxl. By now I just totally confused. I would like to try PyQt/PySide but are afraid of possible pitfalls. Are there any?

Hi Martin, Am Sonntag, den 13.12.2009, 11:02 +0100 schrieb Martin Grimme: You might also consider taking a look at the Python UI framework that is currently used by MediaBox and FM Radio.

As a bonus, your animations will work on N8x0 and maybe even the 770, too. where can I get more information about mediabox. garage is still down (projectpage) and I couldn't find a reference.

which toolkit/framework is best for Game UI
Hi, we try to create a UI for a game. The game itself isn't on the display, but we want to visualize earned points, positions (like in a race) etc including simple animations on the display. Can we still use Gtk or Qt? What's about cairo or pygame? - Gtk seems somehow unflexible (more for good classical UI) - Qt: PyQt not available, PySide status unclear - PyGame: seems flexible, but maybe not comfortable, or? - Cairo: looks interesting, but can we build a complete UI with it? (Ah, yes, we would prefer Python, but this is not mandatory) At the moment we face the problem, that we want put a picture in the background and use buttons in the foreground (like in the Mauku-UI). But also we want do some animations.. Grateful for any hints...

central method to open browser
Hi, my plan was to change my default browser from MicroB to Midori. No I read this isn't possible in Diablo[1]. I just wonder how this is in Freemante.

An other interesting strategy could be the one of the preinstalled games, which freeze the application, when it's leave fullscreen and offer there buttons for quit and resume.

Re: Maemo for commercial development (was Re: N810 RIP)
Hi, as far as we no, Freemantle won't run on N810/N800 because of the new UI. The interesting question for 3rd-party developers could be: Does applications written for Diablo run in Freemantle? Which dependencies are deprecated and which new they had to comply. Maybe they could be some not so important for the marketing, but interesting for the developers details about the hardware reported (like HD-camera). For e.g. does it have a hardware keyboard or the default screen orientation..
