hi, I've got a strange problem. I had cssu installed, 93mb free rootfs space (my other N900 updated fine with 71mb) and I got the "go backup" message. I tried apt-get upgrade and it spits out that mp-fremantle-community-pr depends on qtquickcompat-0.1.0+cssu which after a search I realize is in (!) the cssu and nowhere else. I am confused.

I tried to manualy dpkg mp-fremantle-community-pr but it was left unconfigured and then removed when i "apt-get -f installe"'d

thank you very much and I'll appreciate any help

Sorry for reposting, but this problem got lost in the limbo of hundreds of posts. Anyone got an idea?

Completely unrelated to CSSU. See http://talk.maemo.org/archive/index.php/t-75137.html for a fix

Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU

On my device some apps crash only if launched from portrait (CloudGPS, Neverball, Neverputt)
In portrait mode, in Contacts, if I try to add New contact I get something strange.

I have also tested that it happens also with other applications opened but only when focused like Fapman, Filebox,... even if they are in portrait mode, launching a dialogue from the status area goes to landscape.

This effect disappears by enabling forced rotation. You would need to tweak the blacklist properly as this option messes a few applications.

Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU

thanks guys! this is awesome! you guys made it happened! you guys giving me another tons of reason to love my n900!!! Thank you all people who worked on this project CSSU team!!!

Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU

Some requests for upcoming CSSU versions.

The portrait mode doesn't work for me, everytime a newer CSSU version comes there's a new portrait mode somewhere and it's skipping from portrait to landscape and back and is just bothering and slowing me down. Still if I lock the device to landscape mode it doesn't work flawlessly either, incoming phone calls (that originally is in portrait mode and works there fine) are now in landscape mode and have reject button etc out of the screen! I'd like the "lock landscape mode" to be more like "keep the display orientation as it were originally". That worked the best. Now when even wallpaper is turning in portrait mode my icons get all messed up and that's no use!

When will we see some improvements on applications that could really help our daily use of the N900? Some blurness adjustments doesn't improve my user experience. When N900 was released, quite quickly there were discussion in brainstorm about improving the calendar ( http://maemo.org/community/brainstor...endar_in_n900/ ) ... Still, nothing has been done to improve the calendar functions. Yes, I use the calendar a lot and it's a pain in the ***.

Some bugs in my device (don't know if they're CSSU related or from somewhere else, and hard to say if someone has already discussed about these but this thread is way too long to read everything through.)
-Modest crashes into some internal error.
-Random "zoom's out" into the open applications view.

I don't mean to be ungrateful for all the work you have done, I just hope the work could be directed into some meaningful and not into some pixel pointing detail. And I'm sorry I'm not a coder myself that I could fix these myself. I haven't had any interest to write into brainstorms or such anymore since it seems it's no use as seen in the calendar improving section. Otherwise I would have loved to contribute to the community by testing and giving ideas for the future.

Hopefully my text made some sense since English isn't my native language and I'm under usage of heavy pain killers. I drove an enduro accident last Sunday where I broke my cheekbone and my jaw from two points and I just got out of hospital yesterday evening. My face is like a swollen football after all the operations... but hey... still alive and kicking... for other's misfortune. =)

Re: The in-development Maemo 5 Community SSU

I think there are too many ways to mess the transitions.ini.

Theme Cutomizer, CSSU Tuner, CSSU Features Configuration...

Right now, Theme Customizers and CSSU Features are not able to work together.

My proposal is to add a settings module or an application directly in the CSSU to control transitions.ini instead of depending on the update of external applications. This should be able to enable/disable all features and tune speed of effects.

This way we would avoid new breakages in future updates. It's also a nonsense to install these applications from extras without a dependency from CSSU.

I consider also that tweaking the theme configuration should be part of CSSU, by improving the settings module already included, at least for basic options such as changing theme as a whole, specify icon set, colours and fonts, and not mix it with transitions tweaking.

This is now more important as it seems that Theme Customizer and CSSU Tuner are unmaintained.

Keep in mind, the calendar application is closed source.
Most calendar related brainstorm entries require a full reimplementation of the calendar app. Writing a good calendar application is not easy.
