Re: [Announce] advanced-systemui
New ASUI and settings test binaries.
You will need to have performed the upgrade instructions from the previous test release before installing this. @ mcow, does this binary allow you to toggle the stayslit setting in ASUI and get the correct blanking while connected to charger? Blank and lock&blank also toggle this setting. I was only changing one of the two gconf values which worked fine on my n810 but n800 might be different. @ kroll, the clock page in asui-settings has three new values for popup duration, on-map and fullscreen. The popup will appear whenever the screen turns on and remain for <duration> seconds. Tapping the popup or pressing a key will close it early, if ASUI is mapped then tapping ASUI will also close the popup. If on-map is checked it will also appear whenever you open ASUI with the power button. Fullscreen setting makes the popup cover the entire screen instead of occupying a small window. @ tso, I have reproduced your problem. Screen locked, dimmed indicator appeared but screen eventually dimmed after 1 minute and blanked after 2 (normal times). Not sure yet what mplayer did that wouldn't allow ASUI to allow blanking. |
Re: [Announce] advanced-systemui
Mplayer calls the MCE req_display_blanking_pause method to prevent screen from blanking. ASUI uses direct DSME access to prevent blanking for the flashlight and fullscreen clock and also to allow blanking. Seems that enabling blanking through DSME does not override MCE and there is no MCE method to allow blanking, that I can find. :(

Re: [Announce] advanced-systemui
Still using 0.5.0 here (could not be bothered to fix the helper script), and while playing with the blanking_pause thing i found that a long press on lock&blank seems to disable future long presses, or even the ability to bring up ASUI via the power button. Only fix so far is a device reboot as simply restarting ASUI did not help.
edit: ugh, no sooner had i written that then i found out that letting the device dim the screen via the idle timer fixes it. The odd thing is that when that happens the screen acts as if it had been locked the whole time, so i had to unlock it via the power button. Once that was done i could long press again. edit2: the lock bit above may have come from me accidentally turning on the autolock, oops. |
Re: [Announce] advanced-systemui
bah, i just set center dpad to lock&blank on short press.
on the ASUI script "issue" tho, why not use the uu option that is in the script already? |

Bold items are new since last test binary. @ mcow & tso, let me know if this fixes your problems or if you still have any. |
Re: [Announce] advanced-systemui
New test binary.
If you are using the popup clock you will want to install this, run asui dt ; asui it . The flight mode button should blend with the lock buttons now, the tap action looks more like them and the current mode is highlighted. |
Re: [Announce] advanced-systemui
Request: It would be nice if asui had an entry in sudoers so that "sudo asui" works. I hear that the canonical way to do this on Maemo is to put a file in /etc/sudoers.d and call "update-sudoers" from the postinst and postrm.
This would allow for snippets such as Code:
#!/bin/sh |
Re: [Announce] advanced-systemui
Is there a known problem with the latest version(s) of ASUI on the N800 ?
It works fine on my N810, so I wanted to try it out on the older brother too... only there it doesn't work at all: it installs, but the power button doesn't do anything. The status bar icon dims briefly, then back again, nothing more. However, just before I also installed Diablo-Turbo, so I don't know if ASUI would have worked on stock Diablo. The N810 does also have DT, though, but runs the latest ASUI just fine, and Telescope too. There seems to be something different with the 800... |

I haven't had a chance yet to see whether problems I reported with 0.5.0 have been resolved; will report back. What is meant by "blanking pause"? |

and i am testing 0.5.1 now. So far the popup worked but the 60 second claim seems to not be the case (dimmed closer to 120 seconds then 60). still, i guess if we want to be sure it dims perfectly each time we lock the screen we can switch the locking action to lock&blank. Just knowing that the blanking pause is in effect and can not be overridden is nice to know, as in the past i have wondered what was up when the screen would not blank on lock. The popup will at least inform any confused users. edit: crap, seems there is some other issue now. When i press the power button to unlock there is a short flash of the ui and then the screen blanks again. Oh wait, a long press on the power button got me a view with a "press fullscreen to unlock" popup. Following that got me access to the ui again. Ah, it was part of the feature added earlier by request, right? |
