I was hoping there is a tool that understands sqlite format and could repair the bad section so I can extract more than 2%.

A quick google check shows that there is no such tool. You can try "pragma integritycheck;" and ".dump"

Re: Odds and ends

Okay. This is a really tough one so I'm somewhat not expecting an answer.

I need to have a keyboard on the top of the screen since inputing text is near the bottom.

However, if there is any app (I've tried this with Tear, Emelfm2, and SCUMM while it's in full screen mode), Xkbd doesn't apply the -geometry setting.

This causes the keyboard to always hang on the bottom of the screen by default.

If the background app is in window mode, then Xkbd accepts the -geometry setting and the keyboard displays correctly at the top of the screen.

Is there anything at all I can do about this?

Nevermind. I got it now. :)

It was just a really weird bug with Xkbd and it didn't like how I structured the keyboard in the configuration file.

Re: Odds and ends

Anyone care to venture a guess why my tablet is running super chunky?

It keeps freezing for minutes at a time on me. :(

I also see that there is like 5 maemo launcher thingies that are constantly running.

I use the Community Kernel and DT with around 35 megs still left in internal flash and 128 megs of extended virtual memory.

Cheers. :)

Try terminating each program one by one and see if the sluggishness goes away. Unless of course it is slow immediately after boot.

It is common to many instances of maemo-launcher, ignore them. But that one instance that is consuming 133m virtual could be a problem. Try killing it. I also notice you have tear running and browserd, do you use microb? If you don't use microb you can prevent browserd from starting to free up some memory.

You probably also have a bunch of sites open in tear, judging by the virtual memory it is using. Javascript heavy sites can slow down the tablet, try disabling javascript and using mobile friendly URLs for the sites.

Re: Odds and ends

I had just one page in Tear running and it was pointed at imageshack.us. That's how I upload my screenshots.

Also, I never have javascript enabled with Tear.

So everything I could see that I had running was Tear and Xterm, nothing else.

I'll try closing a few things down at a time and see if that gets me anywhere.

Have you ever thought of incorporating some type of Task Manager, like in Windows XP, with ASUI?

Thanks for the suggestions chief. :)

Something like that?

Re: Odds and ends

Ooh!

I didn't even know you had that feature!

Awesome bro! :D

Will it also let you close down those processes as well?
