Re: problems with the chinook repository

Re: OS 2008 Web browser scrolling with hardware keys
If you press and hold the up or down key it will scroll rather than jump from link to link. On Dec 3, 2007 1:04 PM, Daniel M German [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi everybody, I installed OS 2008 two days ago. It is a very nice upgrade. Thank you to all go have been involved. The only real annoyance that I have experienced is the different behaviour of how the up and down hardware keys behave inside the Web browser. In OS 2007, whenever the currently displayed area of the page did not have any links, pressing the down key will just scroll down a little bit. If there was a link below, it will jump to that link. The current behaviour jumps from link to link, regardless of where in the page they are. Once has to scroll with the other hand. Jumping from link to link makes for very erratic behaviour, too. I presume this is a result of moving from the Opera engine to the Mozilla one, and it might be difficult to implement this feature exactly the same. But it would be nice to switch the behaviour of Up and Down to be more like Up and Down in the computer: just scroll. Or even better, provide both and let the user choose. I suspect there is a configuration file somewhere that tells the browser what to do when the user presses the up/down key? thank you! -- -- Daniel M.

Re: Confused about Application Catalog
This seems a retrograde step as it is useful to just have one page for comments, one page to update if the app moves, etc. Was it announced here and I missed it? I have noticed quite a few issues with the new site as well. I was going to wait for an official announcement before I started filing bugs but maybe there isn't going to be one? So, will there be something sent out or put up in the documentation that explains the workings of this new site? Some questions off the top of my head are: What is a pearl? How does it get there? Why does it say 10 votes for an application, but I only see 4? Why do some comments have a blank name? Can you leave a comment for an application without voting for it?

Issue with GtkUIManager on OS2008?
In my program I use GtkUIManager to create and manage keyboard accelerators for the hardware keys. This works fine on OS 2007 but I have a sneaking suspicion it does not work in OS2008. Can someone with an N810 test my program and let me know if the accelerators are working? (testing the fullscreen button should be sufficient). http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/quiver/ If it turns out that it is not working, would anyone know the cause? A bug in gtk+ for 2008 perhaps?

This works fine on OS 2007 but I have a sneaking suspicion it does not work in OS2008. You're right, it won't work. Even on n810. The reason is that keyboard shortcuts are disabled when there's no keyboard available; there's no point in wasting space by displaying the shortcuts when you don't have a keyboard to actually use them. See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72375 We pretty much overlooked the keys on the outside, sorry :-( Any chance this will be fixed? It seems like it would be better to hide the accelerator labels while keeping the accelerators active. Is that possible? You can always use the key-press-event signal on toplevel window for handling the special hardware keys. This seems like a hack that I would like to avoid. GtkUIManager is much better because I can use it to merge the menus, toolbars, and accelerators in and out depending on the state of the application. (You can toggle the keyboard shortcuts with /apps/osso/gtk/enable-accels and /apps/osso/gtk/enable-mnemonics GConf keys though be aware that input methods will overwrite the values when the availability of hardware keyboard changes.) Yikes... I'd really rather not have to resort to this either. Would setting the gtk-enable-accels property to TRUE reenable the accelerators? If so, could I also then monitor this property through the property-notify-event signal and set it back to TRUE if it gets set to FALSE? This seems like it would be the best solution for me (besides a proper fix to the bug) as it would require the least amount of changes and would still be compatible with the GtkUIManager (as opposed to having to handling key-press-event).

Re: Maemo documentation - feedback time is now
Here are a few things I've been struggling with lately: The porting guide, the 'writing a new application' document, and the tutorial (and probably others) have a lot of overlap. Maybe they could be merged or the redundant bits of information could be in one place and these docs could link to it? The documentation on .desktop/.service files needs improvement as the examples in the docs do not work. I wasted several hours figuring out how to set it up properly (later I saw a bug in bugzilla about this, https://maemo.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=602). I couldn't find any documentation about mime types / file associations. Is it even possible to associate a mime type with a different application or does the file manager always just use the default? And how does the file manager pass arguments (the files to load) through to the associated application (if the associated app has a .service file)? Documentation on icons is lacking. Why isn't the libossomime in the api docs? I would also like to use some of the stock hildon icons in my app but there is no HILDON_STOCK #defines (like in gtk+). Why not? There is no document about thumbnail caching, but I see that ~/.thumbnails/osso has 80x80 thumbnails. Should that be in a document somewhere? I have probably had other issues with the docs, but that's all I can remember right now.

[maemo-developers] Re: Developer Device Program Request
After looking over some of the developer documentation I realized I didn't need a device to try porting my application so I decided to give it a try. I installed the Scratchbox and Xephyr and compiled one of the test programs. I was pleasantly surprised to see how easy it was to get started. After sorting out some issues with dependencies, I was able to get my program compiling and running in a pretty short amount of time. You can see the results in a few screenshots here: http://mike.yi.org/projects/quiver/wiki/QuiverForMaemo Now I have a few questions: I've seen some posts about cairo on the mailing list but I didn't see a package for it. Is it available or should I be looking for another way to fulfill my cairo needs? Are there any hildon_* functions to get the icon names for directories (home folder, trash , desktop, normal folders) and for mime types? I was using a libgnomeui function (gnome_icon_lookup_sync).
