I am really enjoying the .12 release and have started playing around to see if I can find problems. Here are my questions:
1) Is there a way to make it so that the screen does not dim after 30 seconds. I do a lot of document reading and it dims before I can even finish a page.
2) If you enable maemo.org/Extras, DO NOT install gpesummary. It will give you an error about todo database not installed and then it will crash the desktop. I have tried it 3 times with same result each time. I sure am glad it is easy to reflash using the easy install.
3)Should we be installing applications from Extras and elsewhere using the default installer or apt-get? The default installer does not seem to handle dependencies. When I try to install Canola or advanced-power or some others, they give me dependency errors and do not install. Would synaptic work with MER ?
4) easy-deb-chroot gave me an error 'unable to install' but then when I looked, it appeared to have installed both easy-deb-chroot and easy-chroot packages.
5) There are packages that I had installed on my default OS2008 environment that are not showing up in the installable lists, is this because they are not in /user files as mentioned above?
If this is not the place to report all of these, please let me know. I cannot use #mer feature at work....
