maemo.org - Talk - [Announce] Hildon desktop portrait mode

I think you might have the old version installed what you need to do is do the installation process again which is go to first post download the current version file which is named as 18-hd put it in MyDocs in your N900 then go to xterminal and root and type
dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/the latest file name 18-hd.deb
once its finished installing
killall hildon-desktop
and you are done hopefully you wont see black blocks anymore!

Yes, it's configurable. By default the horizontal scrolling is enabled.

Re: [Announce] Hildon desktop portrait mode

can provide a update so the apt-get upgrade won't replace the hildon-desktop?

1 - The problem is solved for the status menu by installing this "Hildon-Status-menu" without installing CSSU

2 - For the portrait of settings etc.. etc. ..... add the text quoted at the end transitions.ini your theme.

3 - Set to 1 forcerotation

Now everything will rotate portrait without CSSU.

I've been trying to register on smartphonetab[dot]net so I can download the file but to no avail. Please can you upload the file somewhere else so I can download it. Thanks

The command linked to uses sudo to get root permissions. This requires the users password, which is what it is asking for (and for sudo to be setup in the right way). You may not have sudo set up that way - I don't, I installed the package rootsh and use the command 'sudo gainroot' to get root permissions. So to run that command, I would run:

sudo gainroot
apt-get install --reinstall hildon-desktop; killall hildon-desktop
exit

(the last command logs me out of the root account and back into my user account).

I don't know what you do to get root access on your phone though.

Re: [Announce] Hildon desktop portrait mode

hi
is there a way to choose other portrait mode backgrounds than the ones in landscape?
i mean it as following:
i have 5 desktops activated and that i can choose 2 backgrounds for each desktop? a landscape one and a portrait one . they switch ever the phone is rotated? i mean your app saves the location of the applications once your app is started is there no way to build in that the new choosen portrait background is also saved ?
