Re: I can't get my Qt apps to run from the menu! Qt expertise needed!

I was under the obviously mistaken impression that the QT framework did that for you (can't locate source offhand). Thanks for the link.

Re: I can't get my Qt apps to run from the menu! Qt expertise needed!

I'm guessing you followed the Wiki (http://wiki.maemo.org/Packaging_a_Qt_application#Creating_a_Maemo_package_from_a_qmake_project) article?

In particular, you have .services files for your apps?

Re: mwTube - mini London Tube (Underground ) status app

Thanks for this - a new 'tube line' was added and obviously this version of mwTube doesn't handle that gracefully. I'm working on a revised version which should be available soon.

Re: mwTube - mini London Tube (Underground ) status app

Just a quick heads up.

I've mostly rewritten in QT now with custom cellrendering. Still have to package it (and wait for PR1.2) but I prefer this to Python. I had some custom cellrendering going...

Re: MADDE / Nokia QT SDK and extra dev libs

I don't think it's so much an oversight as missing functionality. Don't forget, MADDE is still a tech-preview and the Nokia QT SDK a beta.

You can do things like "mad apt-cache search xyz" which...

Start the console, then at the prompt, just type in 'mwtube' and hit enter. In this case, 'mwtube' is a little helper script installed in /usr/bin which launches the actual app.

Re: Preview: Handwriting recognition on the N900

Looks way cool and I'll try it as soon as I get my N900 back.

I still miss Graffiti (v1) though... I'm not so fussed on 'real' letter recognition, Graffiti was fast and very accurate.
