somewhat curious about the basis for this idea
as I am working on something similar.

as a single bit variations are not distinct enough
for visual perception. There is a way, though...}

If so, it is also ready to go from my point of view.

Please do not just simply vote but take your time and check it against the quality assurance checklist first:

If you think everything is ok, you can vote for it here:

Exactly, thanks for the hint.
I updated the other link as well, just in case.

Thanks, Now I have no problems or what so ever with it.
My settings stay the same when I reboot my N900.
So that's good. Thanks again.

In each 4 bits group, the first bit is the top arm, the second bit is the right arm, the third is the bottom arm and the fourth is the left arm (they go clockwise), when a bit is 1 you draw it's arm, when it is zero you don't; no need to actually draw the arms individually if you're using those characters though, since all the possible combinations already exist as unicode characters.


Btw, a correction regarding my base 8 suggestion, that one doesn't need a blank space since it's already 8 characters, the first one, the shortest of them, is zero and the highest one is 7; just like how in base 2 you use 0 to 1 and not 2, in base 8 you use zero to 7; i appologize for that slip.

So I assume the dependency issues are finally eliminated.
Hence, I'll leave this version in extras-testing for your judgement.
Anyway, 0.11.1-1 would be a nice "Schnapszahl" for an initial release to extras. ;)

With respect to the performance problems you are experiencing.
Maybe try to disable "Show Seconds" and see if this improves the situation.
Furthermore, the clock suspends once the display turns off.
I am using the clock with "Show Seconds" disabled and couldn't identify a significant decrease of battery-life yet.

What seems to be indeed problematic with respect to power consumption and thus battery life is the restart of the status menu when developing.
So repeatedly restarting the hildon-status-menu may have a strong impact on your battery-life.


Thank you for your great effort.

The clock running well now. I guess my CPU consumption problem has little to do with Andvanced Clock Plugin, even though like you said, the hildon-status-manu occupies lots of RAM and CPU to restart when you just install something to it.

Mayby because I has just reflashed the device, so the Maemo5 takes its time to learn and adopt itself the the hardware. Everything is normal now, the CPU speed indicator in Conky now shows a flexible 250~600MHz like it should.

And yes, I think the additional python.conf completes the package.
Everything runs fine now. However, I see that when going to the phone <settings>, those default settings in <personalization> appear instantly, but it takes about 3~5 seconds for the additional Advanced Clock Plugin setting, and in my case, bootscreen manager setting, to show up. Can anything be done to that?

Re: [Announce] Advanced Clock Plugin
 
to the developer...can u make another clock or replace the analog clock with this.....

this is just an idea...
i likes this kind of clock rather than the normal analog clock....

Attached is a first run at a CustomClock. As you can see, with some changes to the settings UI it could easily replace the datetimeclock, decimalclock, as well as the ISO clock posted on this thread. It can do anything the date command can do: unix time, etc. It can also handle an arbitrary number of lines (though more than 3 is basically illegible). Seperate lines in the format string using ~

Re: [Announce] Advanced Clock Plugin
 
wondering about a problem i had this morning
network said it was connected but could not get to internet for html or email. other computers, including an n800, having no problems. even restarting n900 and restarting modem/router did not cure the problem. since the last thing i had installed was version 11.1 i removed it. rebooted n900 and internet now accessible.
anyone else see similar/same network problems?
