Great.. Now is there a possibility to have a stylus menu ? Finger menu is too impractical ( also in contacts !) for so many selections one has to scroll and scolling should at least be possible by page ... -- Frank W.

OS 2008 always has the large menu layout now, doesn't it? Certainly, that was my impression. The annoying thing is the lack of finger keyboard detection and the unresponsiveness (mis reading of taps and constant doubling of typing) for the finger keyboard. OS 2007's was quite good, but OS 2008 is much, much less usable. Matt ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

My backup path in 2008 was from N810 prerelease N810 firmware update to N800 2008 beta to current release 2008. stylus did not work on the N800 until I did the fresh flash with minimal restore. I know the similar input issues were found by other users based on the comments I've gotten, the bugzilla report and on ITT. Just trying to help those who may find similar problems. I can appreciate that moving across non-synchronous software releases from different hardware may lead to problems... -- Jonathan Greene +1.914.750.8740 AIM / iChat - atmasphere gtalk / jabber - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Skype / Gizmo - JonathanGreene blogs - http://www.atmasphere.net/wp / http://www.maemoapps.com ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

According to comments in the corresponding bug: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2597 The problem happens only when restoring N810 backup to N800 (because they have / need to have different input settings) and it can be worked around by doing following in xterm: gconftool-2 -t bool -s /apps/osso/inputmethod/enable-stylus-im TRUE - Eero ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
