cannot download LCARS themes
Hi All; I just got a new N900 - it rocks. However I cannot download any of the lcars theme's. On my N900, I browse to maemo.org then select Downloads and I select OS2008. In the Desktop Environment category I find the lcars-complete and click on it's download link. my device then automatically takes me to the app manager, then I see a 'preparing for installation message', then after that's done I see this message: Unable to download 'lcars-complete' Application package not found. I've tried downloading the file and browsing to it via the file manager and I get the same results. Same thing happens for all the start trek themes Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks in advance ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

Thanks in advance Well, first thing could be that you don't try to install packages that belong to older OS to your device? OS2008 is an os that can be found in n8xx models, n900 has maemo5.

And secondly, the LCARS themes were broken and never fixed, in respect of colour compatibility with other apps for OS2008 such as the GPE desktop stuff. Which is a great pity, as otherwise they were quite good. ///Peter ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
how to get bluetooth pc105 keyboards to work with N900
In case anybody is interested, I figured out how to get bluetooth keyboards to work with the N900. I.e. how to get the pc105 xkb layout. First, copy the /usr/share/X11/xkb/ directory from chinook to the N900. (I put it in /usr/share/X11/xkb-chinook/. Be careful not to overwrite /usr/share/X11/xkb/.) Then do: % setxkbmap -device 4 -I -I/usr/share/X11/xkb-chinook -rules base -model pc105 -layout us It may take a little while for it to take effect. And you may need to coax it a bit by typing a bit on the internal keyboard after doing the setxkbmap. You need to redo the setxkbmap after each reboot. So far I only tried this with the iGo Stowaway.
