Send me the patch that changes the kinetic speed, and I have no problem including it in modified-hildon-desktop. I'll probably even make it configurable.

Re: [How To] Have up to 9 home screens on N900 !
 
I keep checking this thread to see if anyone has managed to get virtical desktop scroling i would love to have 9 desktops in a 3x3 grid with my most often used one in the center,
I've heard it said that it is possible but but i wouldn't even know where to start to do it myself as i have zero programing/coding skills.
But if there is anyone out there who is capable of making this work i think alot of people would want it.
Thanks

Matt

That would be amazing actually. Can that really be done?

apparently, although i wouldn't even know where to start, maybe we should start a request thread and see if anyone capable steps up.

In modified-hildon-desktop_2.1 the deceleration rate is controlled by gconf key /apps/osso/hildon-desktop/decel_rate. This is an integer which is the decel rate multiplied by 100. Originally, the rate was 1.1 (corresponding to setting the key to 110). In PR1.1 it was reduced to 0.99, and in PR1.2 to 0.9. in MohammadAG's version it is 0.99, the same as in PR1.1. You can try those settings and others, and see what works for you best.

This key is only read when hildon-desktop starts, so you need to restart hildon-desktop after changing the value for change to take effect. This can be done by rebooting, or by running the command

killall hildon-desktop

Does this mean you won't update your file Matan?
I am tired so maybe I have misread your message?

This means it's done. You can set the integer through the gconf key as he stated

The "new" package is on his web space; http://my.arava.co.il/~matan/repo/bi..._2.1_armel.deb.

Matan - does this include whichever patches/fixes that dealt with location Answer/Decline buttons glitching?

Thanks,
