Re: Debian Apps That Run Well On The Tablets
 

Fatalsaint you should not have posted those QT website apps. When can you start making debs I want them all. LOL :) Especially 3d modelling, seismic, etc... Those are not in Maemo or Debian so it would be fun to have them on Nxx's. Any other off the wall website that we can port apps from?

Re: Debian Apps That Run Well On The Tablets
 

The 3d apps you will have problems with.. OpenGL does not run on our tablets.. and MESA is god awful slow..

So 3d Modelling is not likely.

Re: Debian Apps That Run Well On The Tablets
 

Fatalsaint is this a safe command to do on flash side in xterm. The reason I ask is my battery image disappears occasionally and the bars don't go up when charging. Will iy knock out my mouse?
TIA
Edit: fsck -fy /dev/mmcblk0p2

Re: Debian Apps That Run Well On The Tablets
 

Is what a safe command to do in Flash?? The icon cache thing??? I dunno?? should be... then again it shouldn't have trashed your cache the last time so I can't say anything with certainty...

Re: Debian Apps That Run Well On The Tablets
 

Those issues are related to the icon cache; I don't think the cursors are. You picked up the mouse cursors by nuking ~/.icons/xcursor-transparent, and you won't put that back with gtk-update-icon-cache.

As for safety, it shouldn't be able to trash anything but your icon cache, and it shouldn't even trash that. Which is nice in theory. :/

Edit: Just saw your edit. I normally run fsck with -p and see if it errors; of course, if it does I still wind up doing the practical equivalent of -y, since I don't know ext2fs well enough to even contemplate a manual recovery. But strictly, no, -y is not safe.

Re: Debian Apps That Run Well On The Tablets
 

Oh.. Saw your edit.. yes - that will not hide your mouse again. That is simply a filesystem check.. at worst it'll find so many errors that all your apps will break :D.. but this is highly unlikely if you've been using it without problems. But I also don't think it's going to fix that battery icon problem you explained..

Nice job Benson - Now I can get my cursor on Maemo :D.. we didn't know what he trashed when he rm -r'd his entire /home/user directory that brought that mouse icon back.

Re: Debian Apps That Run Well On The Tablets
 

I just did a bit of Google'ing and 99% of the icon cache errors were caused by a bad .png file; this supports my idea of what the problem is in post #191. I would try getting rid (i.e. moving somewhere else) any recent icon editions you've made and running gtk-update-icon-cache again and see if that doesn't fix your problem.

Re: Debian Apps That Run Well On The Tablets
 

OK fixed icon message mess by just deleting all the .png icons I had put in and using th gtk... command above. Now I just have one more message to clean up.
' /home/user/.osso/current-gtk-key-theme:1: Unable to find include file: "keybindings.rc" ' Any ideas what that is? At least I don't have scrolling errors anymore. :)
What did Benson say about mouse cursor on Maemo? Didn't understand. If I lose I want to bring back. :) TIA

Re: Debian Apps That Run Well On The Tablets
 

There is apparantly a file:

~/.icons/xcursor-transparent

That turns the cursor off (makes it transparent). If you delete that file (which you did) the cursor comes back.

BrentDC how come you don't have a 'Thanks' button?
I did what you said earlier and solved problem. Funny the icons are all there still. Maybe when I reboot they will disappear. :(
