Re: How-to Speed Up the N9's Transitions
 
No, ssh server and client come on N9 preinstalled. You might want to enable "developer mode" to remove some restrictions, and to get access to devel-su.

it didn't work for me

If you did "mv /usr/ /" then it would not have worked (some posts have gotten it wrong). It should be "mv usr/ /" (notice on less "/"). The first (wrong) one just moves the original /usr/ to where it already is located, while the second one moves /home/user/MyDocs/usr/ to /usr/.

Ok so when I do what you said to do with the one vs the other it tells me it says:
mv: can't remove 'usr': Is a directory
So what do I do now?

Went through again, trying something else... will update this post in a few minutes...

Edit:

Went through and mv /home/user/MyDocs/usr /usr
I think this is what I used, I now have it working....

but the last step..
mv /usr/ / [press enter]
wouldn't that just take the root usr folder and move it to root.. hence no change ??

You are right in theory. In practice any sane OS will notice that you are moving a directory to the same place that is already and give you an error.

No, you're moving the file to /usr/ / and it should overwrite the file...

you are moving a folder, not a file..

Not true.. Since you say "/foldername/" then you give a hardcoded path.
If you had said "foldername/" then it is a relative path. That is, would start from the location you are already are. You can find where you are with the command "pwd"

Hope it helps.

Should landscape menu be working on a N9? Not working for me, and trying to find out if I copied the contents properly.

EDIT:

So yes, what I had done wrong was copy the contents wrong. Double check your files with the 'vi' editor to make sure, it is possible you copied stuff wrong too. All the commands mentioned here are incorrect as far as what I tried. there is no mv -R in the system so when you just do mv usr/ / it say's "Can't remove 'usr/': It is a directory, as it should. So the next thing I tried is cp -R which indeed worked.

Copy the usr directory into your base root via PC. This will be /home/user/MyDocs on the phone system. From terminal:

gain devel-su
cd /home/user/MyDocs
cp -R usr/ /
them rm -rf usr (!! MAKE SURE YOU ARE IN /home/user/MyDocs when you do this, not to delete you /usr. Double check your current path location by 'pwd' !!) to delete the now duplicate files which you initially transferred.

Yes, landscape menu works on my N9, you need to go into the meegotouchhome.css and edit where it says locked-orientation: "portrait" to locked-orientation: ""

I didn't bother looking as I still don't have my White N9 to compare it's stock config with this.
F2thaK, if there's more to it & if you've got 5-min, I'd interested in reading, thank-you.

Like jalyst said, I just went through each file and halved the duration time, and reduced some of the delays.

Landscape mainscreens MOD is NOT part of this.

Edit: Edited first post.

Re: How-to Speed Up the N9's Transitions

Thanks, what mv cmd did you use? Seems like a lot of discussion on that, want to make sure I got mine right, because ls -l lists my files as still being from back in september.
