Re: Gary Birkett (aka lcuk) RIP

A great man, a pioneer in open source, and one of the great members of the Maemo community is not among us anymore. Thank you for everything you did for us. We will not forget.

On behalf of Maemo...

Re: And where is the people from Nokia who worked on Maemo and Meego?

I would like everyone to watch the video on this link and meditate again on what Ragnar said.

Re: And where is the people from Nokia who worked on Maemo and Meego?

The person who replaced Ari Jaaksi was Alberto Torres, who resigned last week. Peter Skillman was hired as UX chief.

Re: And where is the people from Nokia who worked on Maemo and Meego?

That is exactly why Qt shouldn't die.

We are all locked in this silly "ecosystem war" because manufacturers want their platform to become a de facto standard, like Windows in the PC. If you want...

Re: MeeGo leader Jaakso LEAVES Nokia

Anyone who thinks Ari Jaaksi didn't care or wasn't passionate enough about Maemo should go read his blog (http://jaaksi.blogspot.com/) from the beginning.

We'll probably never know the exact...

Re: Jaaksi leaves?

Something that I perceived in Ari's posts in his blog is that he didn't mind for Maemo/MeeGo having "rough corners"; that in fact he liked that.

Considering that MeeGo is supposed to be the...

Quim is fine. And MeeGo is fine. We all will miss Ari, a true pioneer of open source and taking Linux mainstream. We have built the first tablets under him and he was the man that run R&D to bring...

Re: How do you use multitasking in N900?

That would work except the device will open a mini-window if it wants one.

I put my n900 down 20 minutes ago, with no windows open. But when I pick it up again, it will have opened one saying I...

Re: How do you use multitasking in N900?

There are really two different uses here:

1. Being able to quickly swap between different applications.
2. Having two applications that actively multitask.

For number 1 above it is enough to...

Re: Pictures: Nokia N9 Real leak

That makes sense actually, since most commonly used Ctrl-letter combinations are keys on the left side of the keyboard.

Making Sym a dedicated key (like Chr on the N810) is also a good move. ...

Re: adding new keyboard layout/changing it's title/ accusing Nokia of discrimination

So, you have successfully edited hardware keyboard layout in rx-51 file in such a way, that it is Ukrainian keyboard layout in fact. Now you want to rename it to ua from ru, and it stops working.

Re: Nokia : We prioritize antenna performance over physical design

Because that's farthest away from your head, and minimizes radiation absorbed in your head (SAR); yay for regulations.

Besides, it's not like you can put it somewhere else inside the phone and not...

Re: [Council] Nokia response to MyNokia subscription in PR1.2

Re: [Council] Nokia response to MyNokia subscription in PR1.2

I don't much care if Nokia catches up. I've got no personal stake in Nokia. I'm very interested in the success of MeeGo however.


Android is less open and a less capable OS. I'd think that as...

Re: [Council] Nokia response to MyNokia subscription in PR1.2

Sure. - But then: It's bad enough to do it on Symbian phones. It's not OK, not on Symbian, not on Maemo and not on MeeGo (or S40, but I think S40 won't do it anyway.)

What's odd, though, is that...

Re: PR1.2 automatically sends SMS, registers phone with My Nokia. Privacy breach?

I have created a package called "notmynokia" which is in extras-devel. If you install this, it tries to protect you from the forced MyNokia registration.

You should install the package before...
