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,

No.
What MohammadAG did is take the latest version from Nokia's repository. I don't know if this version includes experimental changes that are not well tested, so I do not wish to distribute it.

If you have a specific problem, and can point to a specific patch (or a few patches) that solve them, I can look at them and include them if they seem safe.

Look at the repository here:

@Matan:

Hi! I would like to try to apply this patch (two-column and single-column task switcher) to Modified Hildon Desktop, but I can't find sources for modified-hildon-desktop_2.1_armel on your repo...are they available to public?

The source package for modified-hildon-desktop is hildon-desktop. This information is available in the packaging system.

The source tarball is at:

Nicolai has just created a widget which is just as useful as this. The widget allows you to put widgets on your desktops which jump to any desktop. So you can have 9 desktops and put 8 widgets on each desktop which when clicked will take you to the desktop selected. Of cos unlike the grid system it means you take up desktop space with the widgets but if you are using 9 desktops surely this gives you enough space for the widgets and all your other stuff.

Waiting for Nokia to fix my N900 so have not tried it out but those that have had said it works excellently.

To repeat what I said elsewhere, Live Wallpaper works great with 9 desktops. It has a checkbox that allows you to put the same desktop on all Views. It has to be the fastest way to put backgrounds on all Views. I use Berlin and have my shortcuts artistically arranged on each page. I'll try to post a screenshot.

I tried it, and it seems to work! :D
This is the command I used:

gconftool-2 -s /apps/osso/hildon-desktop/decel_rate -t int 99
