The issue seems to only affect maemo5 and, even worst, I suspect was introduced with PR1.2 becuase it didn't exist while using the experimental packages.

Unless it is a project that already works on maemo5 and has disabled the word completition probably won't help much with the issue at hand. Aurora is a great browser/project though.

Update

In consideration for the testers and hoping some people can find it useful as it is I just promoted the package to extras.

Because it takes a long time to have a package go trough testing I decided to move forward with the current version even with the "predictive text on input fields" bug. I am working on two different ways of fixing the problem and will upload them to extras-devel/testing as I get them ready.

I added this note to the first post on this thread:

IMPORTANT: There are some issues with how the QtWebkit handles input text on Qt4.6: the predictive input has some bugs for input fields. It is specially bad for password fields, making very hard to type them. The best work around until we get Qt4.7 is to type the password somewhere else, copy and paste it on the password field.

On another note: I tried to compile Arora for the n900 and it was quite easy. Unfortunately it would take a long time to adjust the user interface to work on the n900. It did help me figure out that the "predictive input" bug exists only on the QGraphicsWebView (not on QWebView).

Fcrochik,
This is really excellent and I agree that some sites just work better using Macuco.

The biggest fiddly bit for me is also the predictive text on usernames and passwords.

As I don't particularly like widgets on the desktop(s), this app is great for quick browsing and social networking. It appears much quicker, as expected I guess, than say Opera10. So far only minor probs with passwords, and leafpad etc. copy-paste worked well. Occasionally little sticky with page scrolling, otherwise, great app! Thank you Fcrochik!

Just uploaded a new version of macuco2 (0.1.2) to extras-devel

There is one single change with this version that should avoid the "predictive text input bug" and allow you to enter passwords again.

I will wait couple days before moving it to testing. Please post to this thread if it works for you (or not) and any comments about this release.

Felipe

It should work with any connection you can get data from the internet. I use all the time with my ATT connection.

yes i dont know why, i actually didnt use it anymore because of that, but i just try again and it did work, so i guess something was wrong.

But moving on, can u do the adress bar? and the loading status bar? just asking... i think that may be a lot of work but that will make it look better and more professional

browsing and input fields work very well.
Nevertheless the app could be optified (256KB). Each KB helps.

When I push "Add bookmark" the app closes unexpected.

I will fix both issues with the next release.

Thanks,
