It does use the default SSU version if one is not found within the theme folder. The active theme is always linked to /etc/hildon/theme so simply copy to that location and edit it to customize your current theme.

Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU

Anybody else currently seeing a problem with installing the enabler, I'm currently getting the error below:

Code:

home/user # apt-get install community-ssu-enabler

Reading package lists... Error!

E: Encountered a section with no Package: header

E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/downloads.maemo.nokia.com_fremantle_ssu_apps_._Packages

E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.

NVM. Not to blame someone, but d-iivil's Theme Customizer appeared to be the culprit in my case, I'm still tweaking this, but maybe I got this solved... there is a /opt/theme-customizer/transitions.ini apparently that is used when TC is installed.

-----

/opt/theme-customizer/transitions.ini is a copy of the original, with some CSSU enabled transitions as a default. It can be selected to be used as a base for a theme in Theme Customizer. As I haven't used that option, I only have the original /usr/share/hildon-desktop/transitions.ini in use, as the theme doesn't specify its own. The original is used. Which still has the default options, 'disable all new transitions', which doesn't get honored by hildon-desktop that is updated? edited? by CSSU?

So CSSU might have a bug? I shouldn't have any programs that change hildon-desktop other than the before-mentioned Theme Customizer.

Has anyone else these issues that I have?

----

I tried commenting the few last lines out from transitions.ini and did killall hildon-desktop after save, nothing is different.

After testing, I think that if I have the Phone running in the background, the different 'panes' in Settings (which is vertical) open rotated if I have the Phone set to portrait and the phone is held portrait. When Phone is set to 'vertical' that didn't happen, even when phone is held portrait. But I can't repeat that behavior 100% of the time, there seems to be a lot going on, also if the Phone is set to launch when rotated seems to have an effect. I'm hoping someone updates something and everything works after that.. =( The (hildon) menu always rotates if the phone is held portrait. The flippings in Settings don't bother me, as I have no need to use them frequently. If anyone missed something, I have an issue with the menu rotating. I don't want it to.

I used to have the 'Phone' set to portrait and launch on rotate. Everything else was horizontal, like it is supposed to be; some apps like mapper did their own rotating, but I never needed the portrait option anywhere else. And everything worked just fine until the 12.1 update today.

Also, d-iivil's TC seems to work just fine, it seems to have no ill effect on the transitions.ini behavior, or rather, it works as supposed in replacing the themes' transitions.ini if the user chooses to do so.

Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU

Please HELP,

after few hours of installing the latest cssu and did the modifications to transitions.ini and restarted hildon and every thing worked fine, i decided to reboot the phone and stucked in reboot loop and phone is not starting!!!

Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU

I have to say that I am amazed when I see how much better my N900 runs after each update. Fluid scrolling that is at least as good as that of a Galaxy S class device is one of the best features.

The best is the extensive implementation of portrait mode. I miss my 5800 less and less each day. I am about ready to pull my SIM out of my N8 and put it back into an N900.

Thank you to every one who has a hand in making this device everything it can be. I'm sure there abilities not yet tapped that will be realized through the CSSU.

Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU

This is incredible. Thanks you so, so much.

Kind Regards,

Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU

Portrait mode worked fine for awhile, but now when I click Settings for example from the application menu while I'm in portrait mode settings-application opens in landscape mode and after about a second it goes back to portrait mode. Any suggestions?

Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU

i think everything does sort of bootup in landscape first before autorotating

If I remember right it didn't do it first, but I probably remember wrong.
