Re: [Announce] Hildon desktop portrait mode
 
answering my own question, the relevant command is:

gconftool -s --type string /apps/osso/hildon-desktop/views/1/bg-image /PATH/TO/YOUR/BACKGROUND/IMAGE/imageFile.jpg

now I need to find out how to introduce a random element - unfortunately shuf doesnt seem to be available in the repos.

He is conflicting with hildon portraid, cause he is already oriented in portraid mode, than with the phone in portraid mode, he go on the wrong orientation...

[QUOTE=shrijith1;1054771]Anybody please?
1) Unmet dependencies on upgrading any other package in fapman.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
advanced-interface-switcher: Depends: advanced-power-common (>= 0.4.5-4) but 0.4.5-3 is to be installed
mp-fremantle-generic-pr: Depends: hildon-desktop (= 1:2.2.140-1+0m5) but 1:2.2.142-13 is to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

2) The status applet does not seem to be working for me in portrait mode. Does it work?
/QUOTE]


1: You have a downgraded version of advanced-power-common that is blocking apt-get updates. You will need to download and install via "dpkg -i" version 0.4.5-3 of advanced-power-common. Don't worry, you can download and install your current 0.4.5-4 version again after you've done your apt-get updates.

2. You have a downgraded version of hildon-desktop that is blocking apt-get updates. You will need to download and install via "dpkg -i" version 1:2.2.142-13 of hildon-desktop. Don't worry, you can download and install your current 1:2.2.140-1+0m5 version again after you've done your apt-get updates.

Both 1 and 2 are common if you run less then the latest version of packages that are in your apt-get repos. I have this problem all of the time when using apt-get since I prefer to use older modest and hildon-desktop packages.

3. No, the status menus does not work in portrait mode. It's too wide to display and can't scale like the power menu button can.

Re: [Announce] Hildon desktop portrait mode
 
does anyone know if there has been any progress on the issue with setting the wallpaper when in portrait mode?

I have a script which sets a new wallpaper every hour, but if the phone happens to be in portrait mode when it changes, the background is only set to half the screen.

Already fixed, but not available (yet) as a deb package.

Bug:

Ended a call and received a message at that moment, clicked on the notification and the phone was acting weird. It showed me only a miniature of everything, including desktop.

Actually it was the opposite - he has 0.4.5-3, apt-get wants 0.4.5-4. So you got downgraded right, just told him the wrong version number.

In this case, you got both mixed - he has an upgraded version: the package depends on 1:2.2.140-1+0m5, and he has 1:2.2.142-13. (As I said before @CSSU folk: wtf? Do you really need a dependency on a specific version? Can't you make it depend on ≥1:2.2.140+0m5, rather than just =1:2.2.140+0m5?)

Actually, while this is true for stock status menu, hildon-status-menu has had portrait mode supporting patches available for a while now (if I recall correctly, thanks to MohammadAG), and includes portrait mode support in the CSSU for it. It might be that the amount of rows to show set in gconf is wrong, but then he should be able to scroll inside what status menu elements are shown.

Mentalist Traceur 2011-07-20 14:22

Re: [Announce] Hildon desktop portrait mode
 
Oh, while I remember, if you're adding the option to scroll vertically or horizontally in portrait mode, why not add it to landscape as well? Those who don't want the option aren't effected so long as default behavior is preserved, and those who do get it. You obviously already have the code to enable either option, since you're implementing it for portrait orientation, so it should be only minimal effort to provide the option for landscape too.

No, not /never/ - just don't upgrade it until it's included in the CSSU and you're upgraded to CSSU (if you're not currently).

This is why people shouldn't run 'apt-get upgrade' if they don't understand how apt-get/dpkg versioning and behaviors work, and others shouldn't recommend 'apt-get upgrade'.

No, we can't, HAM doesn't show packages outside user/*, so unless the version is >= newest, it won't upgrade it.

Note that we depend on >=, not =

Okay, that note is greatly reassuing. (I should've already known this, now that I think about it.)

Actually my original statement is somewhat wrong because I had the impression he was running the CSSU - I effectively take back the "wtf" statement from my last post, and I certainly agree with >=[newest], I just thought he was on CSSU and thus thought the stock fw behavior was the CSSU one (which again in retrospect I realize was something I should've known better for in the first place).

shrijith1: Yes, this would mean non-CSSU people are going to have this problem. What you can do is unpackage the .deb file manually, and change the version string in the control file for the package, to match the one apt-get says it needs.

Info on how to do it is available on this forum, but if you can't find it through searching let us know and either I or someone else will tell you how whenever we get around to typing up an explanation.

Thank you very much.. I hope you will implement this portret hildon-desktop to the next update of CSSU.

Awesome job man! Can you do 3 more screens, with another colour, and a transition between then? So we can have 4 individual screens, and make a real loop, without repetitions!

bash is your friend, it provides a nice env variable called ... "RANDOM":
Code:

echo $RANDOM
# or if you want a random number < 200:
echo $(($RANDOM % 200))

have fun!

the right order is blue - green - yellow - red (while in landscape mode) for the gradients to match in both orientations

Re: [Announce] Hildon desktop portrait mode
 
Ive installed the latest, having this weird problem though!

I've noticed some people having the same problems with the phone app, returning to desktop when the screen is 'unlocked' after the proximity sensor does its job, wich is now fixed it seems..

But for me, this occurs on ANY app :O (except the phone app it seems).
It keeps returning to the desktop when unlocking the screen regardless of what app I was busy with or the method of unlocking. This is really annoying.. searched around but no results yet.

Anyone got a clue?

Are you using the newest version of h-d, from this thread?

Yes, installed several minutes ago, was hoping this would fix the problem but to no avail ;) (yes, rebooted) so this is not default? I was guessing this was a new feature or such, but hate it when listening to music etc. where you want to change a song fast and not go desktop>taskswitcher>app again

[EDIT]
On many apps wich seemed to do just fine had the same troubles when they have been running for a while.
Apps that return to hildon upon unlocking:
Contacts, conversations, microb, email, camera, app manager, pictures, settings, calendar, media player, pdf reader. <- All native apps. Exceptions: Phone and ovi maps (ugh) are fine as well plus some 3rd party ones such as Opera.

Hmm, arent these in wrong resolution and filetype?
800x480?, but these are 640x384.
And should be .png.

No, they are the correct resolution ton right click - view image from here, click on yellow bar to view full image and then save as ;)

They are in .png but posting them in the forum turns them to .jpg. However, It really doesn't matter if it is .png or .jpg :D

Send me a PM if you want me to mail you the originals :cool:

Ahh, I see, the aspect is correct.
Well, they didnt fit lockscreen correctly but desktop works good.
I usually have the same lockscreen background as desktop background nr 1.
So the blue one in 800*480 would be nice if you could upload.

Anyway nice backgrounds. Thanks.
