Fremantle/Diablo UPDATE:
2009-08-25 Xournal alpha for Fremantle has been updated to Fremantle Extra-Devel.

Soon I'll release a Diablo version as well, then I'll try to keep both updated with the same feature set.

2008-04-18 Xournal is now in the Maemo Extras repository
2008-04-17 a bunch of new features, keep reading
2008-04-09 now with touchscreen pressure support.

NEWS


***WARNING****
If you have an old version of Xournal remove it!
Remove also the "ghostscript" package, even if this is optional for now (it will later substituted by "gs").

If you want, you can remove Xournal from the command line (root):

dpkg -r libart-2.0
dpkg -r libgnomeprint2.2
dpkg -r libgnomecanvas
dpkg -r ghostscript (OPTIONAL)
dpkg -r xournal

also remove my own old repository. That's going to be shut down soon.

Then install Xournal from the Application Manager the usual way after having enabled the "maemo Extras" repository that is, by default, disabled.

Please, let me know of ANY issues you might have especially for the pressure sensitivity option.
It's enabled by default along with maximum thickness (otherwise you won't have noticed).

And sorry for the trouble of upgrading from version 0.4.1, but I assure you next upgrades will be smoother as soon as it'll hit maemo-extras.

Thanks for the port. Before I install, can you clarify with regards to ghostscript? I use ghostscript for other purposes, so why should I remove it? and if I remove it, will it be totally replaced by a similar package? If I don't remove it will I have a problem installing the new ersion?

That's why its removal is "optional".
If you need it or are using it.. just leave it there.

"Ghostscript" is listed as an optional dependency in the Xournal INSTALL file.
It's a huge package, so I decided to maintain it as an optional package.

If you leave it there you will have no problems whatsoever.
However it has been replaced (or renamed) to: gs-gpl-8.54.dfsg

So that's the next package I will make available. But Xournal will never require it.

Haven't installed it, am having patience... But it looks awesome, shape recognition should be cool (Now maybe my arrows stop looking so horrible?!), and I have wished for selection resizing. Can't wait to try it out, but I will anyway.

Yup Shape recognition does indeed works well
Never drew a line or circle so perfectly ... shaped!!

Hehe, thanks, after going through dependcy hell, i got it working

But may I ask where are libgnomeprint2.2-data 2.12.1-7chinook2 and libgnomecanvas2-common 2.14.0-2chinook2

You will understand my dpkg log :

Uops! putting them on-line sorry!

Updated the first post.

Where did you get the "chinook1" versions ?
I guess you have the statusbar-cpu applet installed, do you ?

Well, time to go to sleep. Tomorrow I'll have a look at it.

Hehe, thanks

Also, I have 2 xournal entries, I believe /usr/share/applications/xournal.desktop is the false one as it tries to execute xournal %f which it then says doesn't exist.

Thanks for a great port, loving it!

"

Yep but I went on gronmayer to solve depends

I tried to install, but when doing dpkg -i libggnomecanvas2-0_2.14.0-2chinnok2_armel.deb it will not install due to dependency on libart-2.0 that I had to install in red pill mode from repository, and then it still did not install due to dependency on libgnome2canvas2-common which is missing.

OK I needed to install poppler-util from red pill and it installs. Works great!
shape recognition works. No icon in extras. Thanks very much!
