Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU

put the values for radius and radius_more in transitions.ini under the 'home' section to more than 3 i.e. 3.2. the desaturation replaces the off focus

Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU

Question since I can't seem to find the thread about OSS-Media Player : Could this SSU correct the album sorting in MP? So far it's not doing it correctly, see bug #8818.

In other terms : enhancement request, add sort by artist and edit the current "Artist" sorting to be named as "Album artist", since that is what it is now doing.

Could this be added to it?

VERY useful patch which mas made by nokia, and never implemented?
it enables ttls/pap and various other wifi protocols, enabling global eduroam services for any uni students here!

I hope this is what the CSSU is about, sorry if i'm mistaken!

No, that's a closed-source program by Nokia that just modifies GConf keys

Here's a list of the keys it modifies:
/system/osso/connectivity/IAP/allow_wep_ciphers_in_WPA
/system/osso/connectivity/IAP/inactive_wlan_sleep_timeout
/system/osso/connectivity/IAP/min_roam_scan
/system/osso/connectivity/IAP/wlan_sleep_timeout
/system/osso/connectivity/ui/pap_enabled

Some are of the integer type, while others are of the boolean type

can the issue with Answer button be fixed, it is frustrating that the button does not display if you move the phone to correct direction specially while taking out of pocket.

I've added something like

Code:

[task_nav]

tile_font=Century Gothic 20

to the transitions.ini

The phone application is closed source. There's been some talk of the community writing an open source replacement, but that's a challenging task.

The intermediate solution is to not use the "Automatic" setting for the phone software's display control, and hard set it to "Portrait" or "Landscape."

Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU

If you're including portrait launcher, I strongly recommend merging MohammadAG's Qt patch that made it possible for Qt programs to launch while the foreground is in portrait mode without seg-faulting.

No reason for that package not to be in the CSSU already, but it becomes actually necessary if portrait support keeps expanding.

An example - hildon specific buttons ( those dark grey ones like "save", "done", ... ) appear with no background when launched in portrait. Who knows what else but before that is fixed there is no point to enable global portrait mode. This will only make lots of noise from users wanting to be spoonfed (and I don't mean like you).

Sorry it was a typo, everything you normally see in landscape should appear in portrait including the drop down box?

I do see a problem with HealthCheck, something about certain images not found according to an error it prints to X-Term, but it seems to appear regardless of whether it's launched in portrait mode or not.

What Qt apps do you have this error in? I'd be happy to test further.

Either way, I'm sorry, but I don't get the logic of that. It's basically saying "it's not going to be perfectly supporting everything, so we shouldn't include it at all". By the same reasoning, why bother doing anything? Why bother developing a system-wide portrait keyboard, if portrait support didn't yet exist everywhere? Etc, etc.

It just really seems like a very moot point. Portrait support has been wanted since this phone came out. If it's not implemented globally, it works peacemeal like it does now, but always with manual auto-rotate, etc. If it IS implemented globally, it still works peacemeal, but it works for a lot more things, and it works automatically for a lot more programs where it didn't work before. The ones it works glitch-ish-ly for, it still effectively doesn't completely work for, but there's a bunch of programs the usability of which gets increased.

I mean, really, if you look at all the programs that the N900 has, how many of them are actually in Qt? And most of those are at least made to work in portrait mode, if not to be launched in portrait mode. Having global auto-rotation would be wonderfully useful, and even if you're right and those Qt apps have problems with it, it's not hard to mentally remember that a few of your phone's apps shouldn't be launched in portrait mode - far more convenient, it is, then clicking some shortcutd mapped key to use Ctrl+Shift+R, let alone manually entering that combination.

Yeah I thought so. Nope it didn't work. I guess ill have to wait till the auto-rotation is implemented in the next update.

thanks alot for your help!

Ive not been able to type CTRL+SHIFT+R either.

But if you install Shortcutd then you can assign the camera button or proximity sensor to do the keypresses for you.

Seems to enable fine except you can only toggle rotation on and off with the phone in landscape mode!

Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU

i have power searched this thread but have not found a solution to uninstalling in order to reverting to original format.

is the only way to do so a reflash of the os and restore from a backup?

Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU

Technically, you just have to reinstall the stock PR1.3 packages (hildon-desktop, hildon-home, hildon-status-menu, modest, osso-applet-notificationlight osso-applet-display) then reinstall mp-fremantle-generic-pr.
I don't have the exact version number of those on PR1.3, but that's all you need to do to revert back.
(apt-get install packageName=versionNumber)

No (because newer versions are installed) but trying to install it first is handy as it will tell you the exact versions it needs, reducing the rest to a bit of copying and pasting.

For example on Diablo trying to revert to the last official distribution metapackage might give something like (shortened for demonstration purposes):

Code:

Nokia-N810-43-7:~# apt-get install osso-software-version-rx44=1:5.2008.43-7

[...]

The following packages have unmet dependencies.

  osso-software-version-rx44: Depends: busybox (= 3:1.6.1.legal-1osso16) but 3:1.6.1.legal-1osso24 is to be installed

                              Depends: dnsmasq (= 2.35-1osso4diablo1+etch4) but 2.35-1osso4diablo1+etch5 is to be installed

                              Depends: kernel-diablo-flasher (= 2.6.21-200842maemo1) but 2.6.21-200842maemo1.5 is to be installed

[...]

E: Broken packages

and then you would run

Code:

Nokia-N810-43-7:~# apt-get install osso-software-version-rx44=1:5.2008.43-7 \

  busybox=3:1.6.1.legal-1osso16 \

  dnsmasq=2.35-1osso4diablo1+etch4 \

  kernel-diablo-flasher=2.6.21-200842maemo1

One gotcha to be aware of is that if you install a kernel package outside of h-a-m it will not be flashed to the kernel mtd partition - you will have to do that manually before rebooting (I don't remember the Fremantle particulars).

Sort of - the CSSU repository gets a higher "trust-level" so that it can override packages from the Nokia repositories. More details at http://hildon-app-mgr.garage.maemo.org/repos-devel.html.

Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU

One request to all the developers involved

Can you make the number and name bigger when we tap the contact

The number and name are too small even if i increase the font size with theme customizer

The thumbnail of the person is on the left in landscape can't it come to center on the top as in portrait.

Thanks

ndi	2011-02-21 13:10

Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU

Could installing some cssu updates through apt-get cause the updates to install inproperly? the first update I did through ham, and ran the cssu installer, but updates after that through apt-get. I'm asking this because for some reason the changes I've done to transitions.ini don't seem to apply ( namely enabling blurless = 1 and taskswitcher = 1).

Code:

#

# Special tweaks (a restart might be required)

##

[thp_tweaks]

# Blurless desaturation (0 = default, 1 = MeeGo/Symbian-style)

blurless = 1



# Bigger task switcher (0 = default, 1 = single column, 2 = two columns)

taskswitcher = 2

did you change radius and radius_more to more than 3?

I have a little over a year to go on my N900's contract, but once it's over, I reckon I'd be ready to load it onto my phone... Do the devs think that the new Community N900 base build will be Gold Release by then?

As in released into Extras, ready for full release?
