Re: MindMapping for N900
 

wow...how did you pull that off? freemind ? java? how is the speed? any pointers where to download the packages and what to install? thanks!!

Re: MindMapping for N900
 

The speed is fine once the app is fully loaded.

Java for N900 has been available for awhile now. The file I have is ejre-1_6_0_21-fcs-b09-linux-arm-vfp-eabi-min-27_sep_2010.ar.gz.

Search the forums for more details.

I think this is the direct link:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/ja...sp-135769.html

Get the ARMv7 Linux - Headful version.

I extracted mine to /opt. Java is in /opt/ejre/bin/java. You may need to add execute bits to the binaries in bin using chmod.

Then download freemind and extract it. I have it in /home/user/MyDocs/Downloads/freemind. Open terminal and set JAVA_HOME and then 'sh freemind.sh'.

This is a quite bogus problem. We think that there are some problems with the pyo files precompiled against different version of PySide library. You can try to remove the pyo files that came along with HiveMind. To do this run:
Please try this if you are still interested and let me know whether it works or not. We are currently working to eliminate runtime segfaults in the upcoming release 0.4.2.

Re: MindMapping for N900
 

thanks. which version of freemind? i'm assuming the debian one? then i extract the deb file using tar? i've managed to install java and tested it. so the runtime environment is ready.

Re: MindMapping for N900
 

couldn't find any *.pyo files under that folder....

Re: MindMapping for N900
 

I just used the zip distribution. The file was freemind-bin-max--0_8_1.zip.

You can extract and copy the files over or apt-get zlib-bin and then use miniunzip on the N900 itself.

Re: MindMapping for N900
 

Hivemind works perfectly for me, and it is much better than Freemind because it's made for the N900 environment. However, I'm not sure why you are having this problem.

Re: MindMapping for N900
 

I haven't used hivemind itself. The thing I like about Freemind is that I can open the same file on my desktop from the N900. I can connect in mass storage mode and edit the file right there on my desktop. No need to 'sync'. Does hivemind have a desktop equivalent?

I'm open to "the right tool for the job" always.

Re: MindMapping for N900
 

http://www.fruct.org/node/287 says it interoperates with FreeMind...

This is strange, do you still have the installed copy of HiveMind?

First of all HiveMind is being developed as a cross-platform application for both mobile and desktop environments, so we actually have "PC version of the HiveMind", but there are no rpms or debs available at the moment. We are planning to provide them in the late spring. In the meantime you can use version from the mercurial repository. If you are interested we will create a corresponding manual on how to install and run HiveMind on your Linux distributive (Windows installer is on the way to production mode, if you interested in that platform)

HiveMind uses modified FreeMind fileformat. This means that all the mind map that we made in the HiveMind will be opened in FreeMind and vice versa. But there are some limitations: FreeMind does not support link labels and node/label formatting propagation, HiveMind on the other hand does not support arrowlinks, images and may be some other less needed stuff (if you think that this feature is really needed to be implemented be free to post a bug/feature request on the project tracker).
