I'm sure u can get around the enter name and password thing by giving control directly to mission control, via telepathy, and local link xmpp, or anonymous xmpp if u wanna use a xmpp server... but seems like generally telepathising the openmoko would be fun and make sense for all its comm capabilities. Someone built a pretty decent openmoko chat/voip/video client for the openmoko using python bindings, or was ir for maemo..
Hhmm, actually looking a bit at the openmoko apps, it seems there is alreafy a ton of telepathy based stuff for it,Just out of curiosity.... people I've spoken to all said android based phones are nicer to hack on than freerunner/maemo... What's you're opinion. If tou were forced to use just one platform.... which would u chooose. I wanna get something to play/hack on, but I'm unsure what I should go for... kind regards, Daifd Van Assche n Wed, Nov 4, 2009 at 1:26 AM, Jonas Smedegaard <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Arne (and others), > > On Tue, Nov 03, 2 009 at 05:50:51PM +0100, arne anka wrote: >>> >>> I needed to temporarily hack the Sugar-toolkit library to not run the >>> initial what-is-your-name window in fullscreen, to allow a virtual keyboard >>> to appear - as the device have no interface for a real keyboard. >> >> >> i don't knwo exactly, what that window is supposed to do, but if it >> addresses multiple users, it is probably unnecessary on the fr (that's, what >> nodm is for comparedto other desktop managers, forcing you to login) > > I do use nodm - the issue is Sugar-specific: When logging in for the first > time ever, the user is asked to personalize ccount by providing a name > and picking a color for the XO avatar. > > It made good sense for the Dynabook concept which Sugar originally was > designed for (materialized as OLPC XOs a.k.a.
