Here is a program and source that will make nokia 770 go full screen and a script to start the browser. i.e. run the start browser script then tell it to go fullscreen. Call it in a shell script with this preceding the program export DISPLAY=":0.0" so it knows what display you are talking abou

Just done some more tests and the problem seems to go away on G wireless network and only be present on a B wireless network - so maybe it is related to wireless rather than browser. Has anyone else had these symptoms? I don't have a site to test with setup it is on an internal network. Simon

810 not always obeying redirects from websites

2008-02-18 Thread Simon Moore
We appear to be getting an issue on the 810 where it is ignoring redirects (i.e. CGI.redirect in perl) when the page doing the redirect takes say 2 seconds plus from being requested to delivering the redirect. This does not affect any desktop browsers we have tested and we have tested most of

It does work, I've tried it. Not specific to the browser of course, can send any key to any screen, but in this case you send F6 when the browser is the front window to make it full screen. Anyone got any tips on changing X windows (i.e. removing window manager) so just the browser starts u

It is possible to compile a small App that sends the keyboard function key (F6 I think) to x windows that is equivalent to the hardware fullscreen button being pressed (someone pointed me in that direction a while ago on the list). Far from the best solution but it can work. The downside is

Not had any problem with the network as we don't transfer big files. I think Frantisek might be on to something. We defiantly had the problem writing files to the MMC and they don't even have to be big. If you attempt to write data at a significantly faster speed than the MMC can actually do,
