But Maemo 5 is a bit more than a filechooser, isn't it.

Is this task switcher going to enable instantaneous switching between apps or between tasks within apps? Will it switch between only two or will it toggle through more than two? IMHO, a good use of new graphics HW if it does. There's little worse on a MID than annoying lag or multiple steps being needed when switching between tasks. And how will it switch? finger input on screen or key?

Yep, the kinetic scrolling looks promising. I assume the directory chooser will be improved in the final release.

For now I'm fine with it if it allows me to play with the Fremantle SDK, although the overall graphics performance becomes maybe a tad slower.

Somebody should update the "known issues" section of the release notes.

It did not work for me.. I have tried with just the AccelMethod option and also the ones in the workaround link. Is there something more that I have missed?

Yes, it's a 3D, clutter-based, OpenGL-enhanced filechooser.

I have created 10 screenshots of gPodder running in the Fremantle Alpha SDK:



Is this the first Python GUI application to be run in Fremantle SDK? Anyways, all pictures can be found at this URL:

Majorly impressed with the SDK. My Transmission port compiled with only one minor change needed to the code and the build-deps it needed were already installed - I only had to get 3 more (and they're in the SDK repo so no problems there).



(And my F6 still works to get fullscreen in the SDK!)

I think is the fourth application seen inside Fremantle, after Mauku, Maemopad, and Arora

I think it's the first pygtk app to be running, but not the first in python (technically):

I was running pyclutter applications in the pre-alpha SDK:

I agree that it are just test and not useful applications, except the one where my face is seen multiple times :P
