Unresponsive applications make the device display a dialog asking if the faulty window should be killed and not kill any application without asking (it would be very bad user experience)
btw, I couldn't couldn't reproduce my problem with a clean Diablo install, so it's probably my device fault. I'll stick with my ugly workaround.

well, the long press is user initiated, or at least should normally be, so there is no need for a dialog.
bah, never mind. i should have checked the manual for the long press.
its basically there to close the window, without having to go via the menu or the corner X...

Tear's acting very odd. It's deleting my cookies on exit, and I haven't touched the option, which stays on false, even if I try settings it to true. It's no problem, I can easily restore to my backup of last week, but I thought you should be aware.

I like Tear a lot.
I play Warden Online (a free, browser based MMORPG) and it runs probably 50%+ faster in Tear .. which means more time for leveling and for monster killing

Have tried to install Tear every way on a n800 to no avail. I had no problem with my n810 using Qote's repository. Can someone please help.

The N810 already has a screen lock button. I don't see why an application would implement its own version when the device does this out of the box.

If I wanted the regular link response, I could still use the short-press-context-menu, but just select plain "Open.")

Or your problem would be solved if tear had a toggle for turning off link responses altogether (which would also help with the problem of accidentally activating links while scrolling).

One of my least favorite things about my tablet is how the tap that I give to my screen to wake it up also activates whatever button or link or menu that unfortunately happens to be under that finger tap. But this is a problem with the tablet, not any particular app....

it would not surprise me if the delete signal comes from the watchdog process, or something similar, that thanks to a overworked cpu or something to not get the message that the button is released in time, and so deletes the window in question, thinking its process have hung.
