Renaming them all individually seems to take me forever if I decide to change my theme.

Renaming?

I think I'll leave adding extra backgrounds to end users, it would take hours of work to update all my themes since there are plenty of them out there...

Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU
 
1. Since the last 2 releases I'm experiencing random UI lockups with different apps. For example downloading a remote with qtirreco, configuring it, deleting it because of false configuration, redownloading it again will freeze up my system. Same with Macuco browser, opened a link from facebook and tried to close the newly opened page from the taskswitcher brought the same result. Same when trying to delete several mails at once from Gmail IMAP account with modest. Never had these problems before and at least the qtirreco version hasn't changed for a long time, so I guess it has to do with the CSSU... any help?
2. where to donate?

See the thanks from merlin1991, Sc0pius, MohammadAG and a lot of the other contributors to the CSSU.

You're already contributing if you find bugs and regressions from stock PR1.3 behaviour and are raising them. Other easy ways for non-technical people to contribute:
  • Write test plans so that we can share the load, and be consistent, about testing for stable releases.
  • Encourage developers who've done hacks (like Theme Customiser) to create merge requests and contribute code via gitorious.
  • Help triage the current set of open bugs: http://j.mp/communityssu-bugs
    • If it's RESOLVED FIXED, see if the fix is in the current -testing release. If so, change it to be VERIFIED
    • If it's UNCONFIRMED try and reproduce it, expanding on the reproduction instructions from the reporter.
    • If it's got not much information, talk to the reporter via the comments asking for further details.
    • If you're artististic, you could create a background for HAM in portrait mode, see #11986 for the originals; or come up with a better logo for the CSSU than the circular "update" arrow.
  • Help with the documentation and description on the wiki homepage, including coming up with a marketing plan.

I think it's absolutely balmy not to collect the money obviously waiting to be contributed to the project. If you need the money some day, there is no guarantee it will be available then.

I can pretty much guarantee that I will not contribute much to the project beyond bug reports but would contribute money. I'm confident I'm not alone.

I agree strike while the Irons hot, people are more likely to give now then when everything is done and dusted when there ar less updates as the team iron out the bugs!

Not everyone is good at compiling bug reports or updating web pages at least by donating I feel as if I am contributing!!!!

I know what you meant, but see above - currently we don't want money; This is scratching your itch territory (for me), and it's in all our interests to get more people contributing (which if there were donations going to some, how much do you need to contribute before you get a slice? One wiki edit, two? A patch? Triage a bug? Triage lots of bugs? Triage all bugs?)

Donations could end up dissuading more people to contribute on an ongoing basis.

Then help answer questions for newbies. Or look over the bug reports for ones which are obviously **** and add a comment saying "Can you be more accurate please?" or go over bug reports and try and reproduce if it's a subtle bug. Or just say "thanks"!

Jaffa I admire you and the other Developers refusal to accept cash donations when clearly so many of us are willing to ''reward'' your fantastic work by making donations. Your refusal to do so makes your efforts with the CSSU even more remarkable.

Clearly there is point in filing more posts on this subject but if you ever need donations in the future I am sure I speak for the rest of CSSU end users when I say we will be happy to contribute money. In the meantime we will continue testing etc as you have suggested.

Jaffa/ MohammedAG

Not sure if this is a ''closed'' app but as a future developement I wonder if there is any prospect of the upper task bar being visible when using the inbuilt browser in protrait mode. As at present to view it younhave to revert to landscape mode than back to protrait again to carry on using the browers.

There seems plenty of space on the screen for an upper taskbar and so I am not sure why Nokia never included it in the first place.

not sure if its open but there is a work around to have the task bar show in portrait

1. Open the browser open options>settings
2. Then untick "enable rotation"
3. have forcerotation=1 in your transitions.ini

then when you flip to portrait the taskbar will be at the top of the screen the downside is that the bookmarks button is off screen

i havent been around to tune in to this thread since it started, might i ask, is there already a stable patch for a portrait keyboard? one that i just download as a .deb or a patch from a repository? not the ones already in the the repositories but rather an awesome onscreen keypad that shows up when you turn the orientation of your phone to portrait. it doesnt have to come with anything else, just a portrait keypad for emailing.

Theres one already built in but it's QWERTY making it slightly difficult to use. I personally use FastSMSEvo from the repos, making it an alpha-numeric keypad. The only problem is (potentially only with me) that it doesn't always load first time and you need to do some jiggery-pokery to get it to pop up.

Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU
 
What SHOULD happen as a compromise on the donation issue is that the Council should set up a donation fund for this project and others. Then it wouldn't be something the developers would need to worry about. Or would developers start quitting if anyone spent money anywhere on anything? For example, I was planning to go to the grocery story today -- would that kill the project?

Firstly, a HUGE thanks is in order for the CSSU team for delivering what so many N900 users have dreamed of from day 1!

Now on to an observation/bug. Don't know if anyone has noticed, sometimes when switching from a portrait screen back to Hildon Desktop, the desktop will also start to rotate.

Using CSSU 12.5, with forced rotation enabled

Today I was bored so decided to install the SSU. I didn't expect that much from it! But this thing is really great and absolutely useful and well done :)
I'm amazed by the mastery of the developers. Really, thanks, thanks, thank you. If you decide to accept donations (and you deserve them), mine won't be missed.

wow is this already the N950 ? :D


I wonder how the icons on the screen can rotate like that, is it with Dr launch ?

The swipe to unlock screen in portrait is awesome, wait ? how did he do it from now ?


Edit :
Quote:

Nokia N900 CSSU Portrait

Includes conversations MOD, portrait widgets, lock slider screen fix, zoom on press
ok for conversations MOD, ok for portrait widgets, ok for zoom on press, but what about lock slider screen fix ? never heard something about that ?

Have to say that I have to double press on power button too to show "swipe to unlock" (so my espeaktime is always launch ^^) and the rotation here isn't optimised, like other users already said. I didn't see for now any other problem.

Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU
 
First gggreat thanks to developer team for awesome updates. My phone is now better than ever!

I got one little thing that gives me troubles. I canīt get zoom on press and parallax effects work at all. Z-axis rotation and blurness works fine but the another two wonīt just work :(

I have trying to edit them with leafpad but no changes been made.
Iīve tried killall hildon-desktop and reboot but no... I also uninstall theme customizer. Could there be something with maemodder that prevents those settings to work??

Cheers!

The icons simply grow slightly bigger when you press them, you therefore know the app etc is going to open so don't double press it in error.

I have downloaded the CSSU and the settings you need to amended are fairly straight forward have also downloaded leafpad.

Any chance the conversations mod shown here will form part of a CSSU update in the future? As it seems way preferrable to the standard one?

I wouldn't class it as a "Bug" as such just an improvement/option I would like to see for a future update of the CSSU,

It does say "This is not a general discussion forum" on the Bugzilla but have entered my comments now anyway when voting for the bug. If it is the wrong place to enter comments please just ignore them!

Great work guys! :)

Just wondering if there's any chance of MicroB getting some CSSU love, would be great if bugs #7997 and #10437 could be fixed... any chance of getting timeless on board this CSSU train?

One more thing - can a changelog be included with each package update, with the changelog being viewed when you click on "Details" in HAM?
