NuvoBlack now works on the most recent OS2007!
 
Took a little doing though. I've repackaged it, and you can download it here.

I ran it, and it seemed to work pretty well for me. If you notice anything wrong, please let me know.

I lay no claim to this, all credit goes to Urho Konttori, and the original .deb file can be found here.

I just installed it. Everytime I tried to start Opera, it would crash saying internal web error. I switched themes and Opera worked.

Re: NuvoBlack now works on the most recent OS2007!
 
Well...that certainly DOES sound bad. Give me a bit, I'm looking into it now.

EDIT: Ok, so far, it only happens if you're using the Opera engine, not the Mozilla one. Looking into it.

yeah was about to add (for first post :) ) that my mozilla engine doesn't seem to suffer. Nice theme, new the 800, this is my new theme!

Re: NuvoBlack now works on the most recent OS2007!
 
Ooooo, nice. I need to go in and adjust the font sizes, but I like the theme!

Re: NuvoBlack now works on the most recent OS2007!
 
Alright, dammit. =)

It's 99% of the way there. It doesn't crash Opera, so that's a plus. The up and down arrows look a little....well, install it and see. They're functional, just look a little off. I *will* fix that in a bit, but I'm getting that look from my wife that says if I don't stop messing with this, I won't have a wife soon.

I'll let you guys know whenever I get it figured out.

And, uhh...Uhro? If you're out there, throw me a frickin' bone here, wouldja? =)

But then you'll have more time to mess with your Nokia! :p

I love it. Thanks for taking the time. You are not the only one who gets looks from the wife.

Re: NuvoBlack now works on the most recent OS2007!
 
In my experience, the nuvothemes reinstalled by spazholio's method make Opera crash, but if you previously modify the installed theme by Puchi, the newly coloured theme behaves rightly with Opera.

Re: NuvoBlack now works on the most recent OS2007!
 
Hi guys,

I haven't had the time to look into the thememaker compatibility issue yet. I'm still considering being 'on vacation', so no debugging sessions yet. The most probable cause is that there is a compatibility issue in the opera.zip file. Compare that to the respective zip of a working theme on the device.

Hope that helps! And sorry for the lack of time.

Re: NuvoBlack now works on the most recent OS2007!
 
These themes are different in structure than the original Nokia themes. Check Plankton for instance.
My biggest complaint about the default themes is the fontsize. 12pt fonts seem about right.

rhouge 2007-07-23 13:08

Re: NuvoBlack now works on the most recent OS2007!
 
The link at the top of this thread works great while running opera.

I noticed this more with the nuvoblack as opposed to plankton. Is there an "easy" way to change these settings for themes?

I'm afraid not. The new firmware made the use of themes from Urho Konttori's Theme Maker impossible.
http://thememaker.garage.maemo.org/A...icture%203.png
I manually tried to get the Vista 10 pt and 12 pt themes to work and they did. But they seem buggy. The use of Puchi got rid of the crashing Opera, but it still doesn't feel 'right'.
(For the DIY guys: I provided all links to get it working yourselves.)

We'll have to wait for Urho to update the Theme Maker I guess... :(

It's "easy" if you know your way around the command line. Just edit the /usr/share/themes/THEMENAME/gtk-2.0/gtkrc file. There's a block of text for the font sizes. I don't change the hrw fonts, because I don't do the hand writing thing. This is what I have mine set to at the moment.

Code:

True, but if you just change the fontsize and nothing more, the theme won't feel 'right'. Large scrollbars, lot's of open unused space arround the small fonts... It has to be a complete 'small' theme or it will be worse than the large fonts.

I don't know, it looks okay to me. Maybe I just haven't seen a good small theme.

Frankowitz 2007-07-24 12:09

Re: NuvoBlack now works on the most recent OS2007!
 
Hmm, your screenshot certainly doesn't look bad!
I'll try again, maybe I tried it on theme that made it worse.

*UPDATE*

Changing the settings in gtkrc doesn't do anything it seems...

Change themes, then change back or reboot. Sometimes it doesn't take effect immediately.

Doesn't make any difference, still doesn't work.

On a side note, I tried the smaller fonts some time ago (previous firmware) that are available here. Those are the ones I didn't like.

Are there cache files? You'll need to delete those. That's weird that the font isn't changing size.

Good to know that worked. I couldn't remember if there were cache files or not.

I did see the cache files at first, but I have something against deleting files in root mode of which I don't know what they do exactly... :p

Well, I've found the problem with help from a guy from Nokia, but I haven't been able to fix it yet. Basically the problem is in making a tar file. The tar libraries that I've found for java are not compatible with the latest tar in the firmware. I hope we'll make some progress next week.

Indeed, the structure of the files from ThemeMaker is different from the default ones that do work.

Nokia has now fixed the bug in their tar.

I hope that it will come downstream soon to the rest of us.
