Could you consider making a new binary package for us PR 1.3 users? The version is now 2.2.140-1+0m5, so I assume the (fake) version for your package will again cause dependency issues. Might also be worth testing if the real version identity (.141) is ok for PR 1.3 dependencies.

Probably would be best to keep the "2.2.138-1+0m5" version available too as I assume many people still use PR 1.2.

Using dpkg, it is certainly possible to install mathan's .141 version (with the fake 2.2.138-1+0m5 identity) with PR 1.3. dpkg complains about the version downgrade, but there are no dependency errors.

Still, I agree, it would be nice to have a new version with a fake 2.2.140 identity!

Edit : Unfortunately, another package (mp-generic-fremantle-pr) does look for the specific version of hildon-desktop.

reading the posts got me to thinking,

now with the updates and all the current updates,

do i still need to uninstall catorize to save battery life?

Sorry if this is a basic question, but could i get the link too of the apps that consume a lot of battery life?

Hi!
I've been away from this forum for several weeks now (far too busy at work), so I'm not very updated...

But I've updated to PR1.3 myself, and seem to have some excessive cpu usage with hildon-desktop again. I'll try to look into this tonight (If not solved already. Haven't even searched the forum yet)...

I got bored and performed a compile of hildon-desktop 2.2.141 for PR1.3, with fake version number 2.2.140-1+0m5.

Updated link: http://81.216.215.120/maemo/hildon-d...+0m5_armel.deb

(And here is the old one for PR1.2 only!)

Install with 'dpkg -i' as root.
Restart hildon-desktop with 'killall hildon-desktop' as root.

Hope it works! It's fresh from the compiler, but seems to work for me...

Of course I made a mistake on my first attempt, so if you are one of the two who downloaded it before 14:13 GMT, then please redownload using this url to avoid subsequent dependency problems!

If you want to use Catorise (or similar*), then you "must" have this fixed version (2.2.141) of hildon-desktop, both on PR1.2 and PR1.3.

And as a great side effect, you can also configure the scrolling speed with this version...

*everything that gives you some sub menu of less than 16 items will likely trig this bug, as I understand it (which probably means that it is an invalid conclusion).

I'm approx. 99.9999% sure it does!
