Re: Applications working on OS 2008

Oh sry ... my language:

I want to get wget to install and am not having any success with the bora rep.

That's better ...

Re: Applications working on OS 2008

Has anyone tried Notecase and gotten it to work?

Re: Applications working on OS 2008

GPE todo and calendar will close if you try to add a new category
GPE summary doesn't refresh the todo list.
So GPE works but it is still buggy

Re: Applications working on OS 2008

Ok, I finally got gpodder working.
I had to follow these instuctions at the command line to get glade working:
apt-get remove python2.5-runtime && apt-get install python2.5-runtime && apt-get install python2.5-gtk2
I found the command above here (Thanks Khertan):
http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...22&postcount=6

Then for some reason it wouldn't launch with the gpodder_loader wrapper script that it was using for the menu icon, so I edited
/usr/share/applications/hildon/gpodder.desktop
and changed "Exec=/usr/bin/gpodder_loader" to "Exec=/usr/bin/gpodder" and it works now!

All gpodder_loader did was preload something called /usr/bin/connectivity_preload.sh but that file isn't there now, so I guess it doesn't need it to start.

EDIT: I did find out more about that connectivity_preload.sh on this page under "Automatic Connection" http://maemo.org/development/documen...rial_bora.html

I agree that add new category will close the app.

It doesn't refresh automatically, have you tried tapping the Refresh symbol on to right? That did it for me.

I just tried Knips (camera snapshots) from that repository and it works. Someone was looking for a camera app the other day, now there is one.

Unfortunately it is still using very little jpeg compression... files are close to 300KB each for a 640x480 low quality image. IMHO, if the camera can't take good pictures, then at least compress them a reasonable amount (eg. 80% quality brings it well under 100KB) so that they don't waste a lot of space and are more suitable for direct attachment to an email. Edit: Suggestion sent to author.

I was the one looking for the OS2008 camera app and unfortunately, I'm still looking. Knips kills my entire tablet after about 10 seconds of running each and every time.

You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libsdl-net1.2: Depends: libsdl1.2debian (>= 1.2.10-1) but it is not installable
osso-software-version: Depends: libsdl1.2 (= 1.2.8-23) but 1.2.8-18.1 is to be installed
ukmp: Depends: python2.5-runtime but it is not going to be installed
wirelesstools: Depends: libiw28 (>= 27+28pre13) but it is not installable
xkbd: Depends: libxpm4 but it is not going to be installed or
xlibs (> 4.1.0) but it is not installable
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

Perhaps you don't have a repository that I do.
Here is a copy of my apt list.

it refresh the calendar but not the todo.

Re: Applications working on OS 2008

Perhaps someone who is able will add this to the wiki...

I got erminig to work in concert with GPE Calendar & Google Calendar.
It syncs events both ways and seems to behave just fine.
I don't categorize my calendar events....trying to add a category crashes the Calendar as others mentioned though.

Erminig requires Python 2.5,
# python2.5-gtk2
# python2.5-hildon
# python2.5-xml

...install the following:
gdataclient http://david.hautbois.free.fr/joomla...fileinfo&id=13
pysqlite
http://david.hautbois.free.fr/joomla...=fileinfo&id=5
erminig2.7
http://david.hautbois.free.fr/joomla...fileinfo&id=10

I got vectoroids to work (a weak asteroids clone)
https://garage.maemo.org/frs/?group_id=64&release_id=90

and also eightyone (excellent raw sudoku generator + game)
one click install
