Re: abiword 2.7.3 in diablo extras-devel

Hey, all, long time no forum - I tried one little change to the upstream abiword-ite debian packaging thing that should make there be no desktop file in the /etc path mentioned above. My hunch is...

Re: AbiWord for Chinook and Diablo - Open Beta

Willing, not able - time. There has been no abiword release - 2.6.4 is the latest in the current series - and I haven't had time to make any maemo-specific changes to the package. I was trying to...

Re: AbiWord for Chinook and Diablo - Open Beta

BTW: the same version of AbiWord is in both the extras-devel repositories for chinook and diablo - there is no difference between the source I uploaded to the extras-builder for those distributions. ...

Re: AbiWord for Chinook and Diablo - Open Beta

I haven't had time to figure out where the defoma package in Chinook came from and where I can get the sources to upload to Diablo. This is a task anybody with a bit of debian experience could do -...

Re: N800 Stylus Scratching Screen

I'd say, get one of the name-brand expensive ones, not the multi-packs. If they're not designed to wear out, they don't, it seems.

Re: AbiWord for Chinook and Diablo - Open Beta

The keyboard thing is a known bug - see the bug lists - that is, you should be able to just click in the doc to pull up the stylus keyboard as is normal. (There is an issue where the pointer to our...

Re: N800 Stylus Scratching Screen

I got the "nice" one - $12 (effectively 6 sterling excluding vat) for a single protector from BoxWave. I've used it for over a year - it's designed to be usable for a very, very long time, you can...

Re: N800 Stylus Scratching Screen

I have the boxwave anti-glare for my N800, and not only does it work well, I think it improves the stylus and finger experiences - it feels emotionally safer to touch the screen, and the screen...

Yeah, that will work - I have a feeling I posted that workaround already, but it might have been in the other thread.

Re: AbiWord for Chinook and Diablo - Open Beta

@middleda
You don't need both Maemo Extras entries, so turn one into the Maemo Extras-Devel repository needed for AbiWord (change extras to extras-devel in the URL and change the name). Then, try...

Re: AbiWord for Chinook and Diablo - Open Beta

My guess is that you have the debian version installed and somehow the launcher is starting that. Remove the debian version, make sure you have removed other repositories that had AbiWord (my...

Re: AbiWord for Chinook and Diablo - Open Beta

Hmm, haven't heard of that one. Please file it at http://bugzilla.abisource.com - make sure to set the component to Front End-Maemo and the hardware/platform correctly.

Thanks! (Same goes for...

Re: AbiWord for Chinook and Diablo - Open Beta

dfinch: word perfect support is also in a plugin, so it's in the same boat with odt and ooxml. It's actually a bit trickier, since it requires a dependency - the order in which I'll add plugins will...
