Re: Xournal for Fremantle
Of course not! I'm having a severe shortage of free time this month. But will this change allow us to create new pages?

Re: Xournal for Fremantle
Right now I always carry my N900 and a notebook. As soon as the page buttons are done I'll need only the N900! I tried the Debian version but it isn't as cool.

Re: Printers and N900
It's printing! I just printed a test page, a text file, and a PDF.

Re: Printers and N900
fLegmatic, the problem is that I had not included foomatic and ghostscript. I have built and installed foomatic and I am working on ghostscript. So it wouldn't work for you just yet.

Re: KOffice vs. Open Office
Once Open Office opens it works great. I do wonder what would happen if someone tried to build it for Fremantle. It might just work. (IMHO, no need to hildonize it. It is better for such a complex...
