Re: N800 and espeak
Sorry if I was not clear. The first code snippet I posted is a line in navit.xml that refers to another file, namely /usr/local/sbin/navit-speech-wrapper. This file should contain the contents of...

Re: N800 and espeak
Making navit use espeak is fairly easy. In .navit/navit.xml I have a line like this:
<speech type="cmdline" data="/usr/local/sbin/navit-speech-wrapper %s"/>
The file specified above looks...

Re: What is your main mobile browser?
I wanted to like something else more, but I just keep coming back to microb. It may not be the latest, greatest, whiz-bangiest, but it (usually) just works. I have tried Opera and Tear, and found...

Re: Latest navit broken? (N810 / OS2008)
There seem to be other (non-maemo) users reporting the same bug, and the developers are taking notice. For now use svn-3495 and all should work. Any of the svn-35xx have the same problem.

Latest navit broken? (N810 / OS2008)
navit installed an update this morning (to svn-3506), and now it appears to be broken. On start-up it calculates the route correctly, and displays the initial instruction, although it does not speak...

Re: N800 and espeak
Good find! That play-sound hack does indeed work. However, I find that the sound is quite distorted, even at moderate volumes. mplayer+alsa is not as loud, but is more listenable.
As an aside,...

Re: N800 and espeak
I was just playing around and found that changing audio output driver in mplayer to either alsa or esd (default was sdl) will stop playback and exit at EOF. Try it!

Re: N800 and espeak
For what it is worth, I cannot get the play-sound solution to work. The espeak .wav file works in both mplayer and gst-launch solutions, but play-sound produces no sound at all, and no error is...

Re: [Release] ThinkLinux, (on the way) for Maemo 4
I don't think it is that same icon. The agps-ui picture has a paler background. Compare the clock picture (I assume that this is qgn_indi_worldmap.png) to the one in /usr/share/agps-ui/worldmap.png...

Re: [Theme] ThinkLinux, (on the way) for Maemo 4
I think I nutted this one out. In the thread for Fremantle on Diablo I learned that the applet area is always 7 applets wide, regardless of how wide the theme sets it. This theme is, however, set...

This is not working either. I switched to the ThinkLinux theme and had the same problem, and this trick did fix it, but not in Diablo5.

Re: quiver crashing - GLIB error
