You need to un-"pin" it first.

Check what you have in /etc/apt/preferences, something like:

Code:

cat /etc/apt/preferences

if you see only this:

Code:

~ $ cat /etc/apt/preferences
Package: hildon-desktop
Pin: release a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 1001
~ $

it means you haven't pinned anything else. in that case it is safe to do:

Code:

rm /etc/apt/preferences

and then the upgrade will work.

Cheers.

Same instructions as first post, includes screen glitch fix, scrolling fixed by default (adjustable in transitions.ini), and the catorize triggered bug fixed.

Indeed I am a bit busy, I'm only 17 and this is my last year at school, so there are some priorities, I still come to the forums whenever I can though.
Rewriting PSFreedom and Hostmode's UIs in C++, so I'm kinda busy with those two projects too

17 ? WoW I though you were in your 20-30s xD

See here.

I tried it and it worked! Now, I have matan's Modified Hildon Desktop + faster kinetic scrolling in app menu ( + single-column task switcher

).

Now the problem is: is there a way to have system-wide faster scrolling (not only in the menu)?

i haven't pin it, and it shows that this directory doesn't exist, my only problem with it, is that using this modified hildon, transition control doesn't work .

Transition control needs an update, it's using the old transitions.ini entries and it doesn't adjust properly to new entries.

isnt this a real update?
the current file has version number 2.2.138-1, the older one i have has the same number.

/edit:
just installed it, and i noticed that transitions in the menu got much choppier. also, when you go to "all" in the menu (i'm using catorise), it doesnt give an animation at all.

transitions.ini is replaced after each installation, I could change this but not right now (it's how hildon-desktop behaves from nokia, not my fault

)

I've successfully merged Matan's hildon-desktop with my package, so there's no need to install modified-hildon-desktop now.

Source code is not modified at all, same source with Matan's patches applied on top.

after installing your package i noticed that apmefo is not able to sort apps into the custom folders,does this hack conflict with apmefo ?

this is the output from apmefo diagnosis tool :

Code:

$ python /opt/ApMeFo/Main.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/opt/ApMeFo/ui/appFolders.py", line 200, in on_btnAddNameSelect_released
self.mainApp.foldercontent.setFolder(filename)
File "/opt/ApMeFo/classes/folderContent.py", line 31, in setFolder
self.foldername = unicode (folder.toUtf8(), "utf-8")
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'toUtf8'
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/opt/ApMeFo/ui/appFolders.py", line 200, in on_btnAddNameSelect_released
self.mainApp.foldercontent.setFolder(filename)
File "/opt/ApMeFo/classes/folderContent.py", line 33, in setFolder
self.readAllApps()
File "/opt/ApMeFo/classes/folderContent.py", line 197, in readAllApps
part = self.folderlist.getNameFromDirFile(self.folderlist.DirpathGlobal + file)
File "/opt/ApMeFo/classes/folderList.py", line 100, in getNameFromDirFile
filetxt = filecontent.split("Name=")[1]
IndexError: list index out of range

thanks
