I do not own any of the Nokia internet tablet devices. That makes it hard for me to iron out most of the device-specific problems some of you mentioned. I guess t_moyashi can help with that.

As for the volume control, can anyone of you tell me which device is used for volume control on the Maemo platform? Is it /dev/mixer?

The volume control code is located in /core/platform/system_volume.cpp
There is an option to use the internal volume control of MPlayer instead of directly interfering with the sound driver via /dev/*. This requires recompiling the application. Perhaps somebody can do that?

It depends on what type of playlist you have created. Dynamic playlists can not be changed in order because they are automatically created directly from a predefined set of directories, thus, it is the directories that define the order of items in the playlist.
However, normal playlists (and the OTG playlist for that matter) can be adjusted. There is a special mode that allows moving the items around. It can be activated either via Edit > Move Item Mode or via the first button in the upper right corner.

Thanks evilJazz .
Thanks　to your advice , now we can control volume in Quasar.
(though it is limited .)

[EDIT1]
In Maemo , we can control system volume through Gconf.
I'm trying hard to build it into Quasar ...

[EDIT2]
Because of my low abilities (I only can type "configure","make"
and "make install."),
some people misunderstood Quasar as if it was so buggy.
I'm sorry for it...

I had successfully installed " quasar_0.96r169r31-maemo2_armel.deb " and no problem in loading . But once I reboot the NIT , all configuration was lost . Once I uninstalled quasar , everything will come back again . I had tried twice and the problem is always there . Hope this bug can be fixed soon . I'd love to use quasar .

From earlier in the thread, and added to the first post
-----
Tips :

Sometimes, quasar fails to be launched.
>> Editing "/home/user/.quasar/quasar.conf" , you can solve this problem.

Code:
[QuasarMainWindow]
hadFrame = 0

to

Code:
[QuasarMainWindow]
hadFrame = 1

I noticed in the first post that there is a new file to get the volume to work. I'm getting errors when trying to install it (Incompatible Application package)
