Aisu from ITT has put together a nice site. Please feel free to post any install realted questions in this thread also. I do not have the will nor want to keep up with the install docs, so I really appreciate his help.

SPECIAL THANKS to Andre Ellguth who fixed XFCE-WMDOCK (His project) not to eat the onscreen keyboards used by me/us




~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`


XFCE :-)

What is in the tarball

x11vnc when starting vnc server (password is rootme)
REALVNC is also installed, both client and server, server works, but hangs when disconnected and cursor does not showwhen using xrdp. I compiled x11vnc which works good, you can use vncpasswd (realvnc) can be used to set vnc server password.

xrdp (Allows you to connect to n800 with MS Terminal services client using x11vnc)

Sylpheed email (works great, but menu setup is difficult) Note look for username and password, (under send/receive server in setup) it hides under the XFCE menu panel, you need to move it around to access the username and password when setting up new account)

More Software
Gaim, gftp, mousepad editor, epdf, gpmgep (mp3 player), gqview (image viewer, fullscreen slideshow)

Links I started playing with the mime for links, this version plays avi/mpeg after downloading with mplayer. Shoutcast.com links start in mplayer also go to shoutcast.com in links

Command line
+ su tar bzip2 grep ping telnet ftp nmap hdparm mpg123 aterm xterm

eyecandy
+ xdaliclock (Fullscreen Clock), xdesktopwaves, xpenguins, explosions, xlock

DOCKAPPS
wmSMPmon, wmcpuload, wmmemfree, wmnd, wmnetload, wmupmon, wmagnify, wmfsm, wmmemmon, wmnet(not working inside wmdock), wmpiki, wmwifi, wmcdclock, wmifinfo, wmmon, wmsm, cputnik, asmem, Mixer, asmixer
(Not all dockapps are working, start up a dockapp and it will automagically be pulled into the xfce-wmdock holder. use the -bw or -w if available)

FYI - I think the theme issue is resolved, it should work with any hildon theme, let me know?

Known Issues:
Submenus are not working on panel, submenus for hildon apps only seem to work when app is in fullscreen, some have more issues than others.

Menu's that are taller than the screen will not open at all, there are several menus as of right now :-)

Not all menu entries have icons

Enter key not working for minimo, hildon keyboard is available from the menu

xfce4-appfinder stopped working, it used to work? Now it seg faults

Booting from XFCE, While it does boot from XFCE, its not working properly, the trash icon is missing from desktop if boot from XFCE, and audio devices are not working.

This is setup on a n800 with , 770 users please report"




Additional Reccomended Changes

Disable metalayer-crawler (It always causes me problems using lots of CPU)
Delete /etc/rc2.d/S99metalayer-crawler0
to re-enable
ln -s /etc/init.d/S99metalayer-crawler0 /etc/rc2.d/S99metalayer-crawler0


Update the allowed pty's
edit /etc/init.d/af-services

Change
echo 4 > /proc/sys/kernel/pty/max
to
echo 24 > /proc/sys/kernel/pty/max

You need a pty for each terminal session you want to open, ssh or xterm. This will fix the problem that you can not open more than a couple of term sessions then it will give some error, like no pty's available. I did not want to include the file, was not sure it was the same on 770/800

Just before i disable metalayer-crawler - what does that thing do - what is it good for ? Awesome work btw !!

Don't exactly quote me on this, but from understanding it searches your filesystems for media files


# Description: Metalayer Crawler part of the Mediaplayer suite.


I can still play media files inside osso-mediaplayer, so to me, its not needed. When it starts searching all the files it pegs at 100% and will often cause un-explained reboots. In Microsoft terms, that would be a feature :-)

You rock... i've mirrored it at :

Let me know if you don't wish this mirroring, but thought i'd help with bandwith to get it out there

Well, it's neat and certainly a change but it's by no means a replacement.
