Sorry that it has took a week to fix this. Solution was simple, but i'm really busy at this time ☹

Telescope 2.0~rc12

Fixed bug from previous maacruz' post
Now Telescope package has the icon!! Icons is © Kroll

I've just submitted rc12 to autobuilder, so it will take a bit of time to reach the repository

Still not fixed.
Today I managed to fill again my filesystem and the problem was repeated.
If ~/.osso/menus/applications.menu has size 0 telescope crashes leading to a reboot loop.

Sorry for late answer. I just tested this carefully and i can't reproduce that

Either that was somehow fixed (and i forgot about that fix

) or this happens only with particular apps (i have tested with default diablo apps).
I have measured X memory usage by this command:

Code:

while true; do cat /proc/<Xomap-PID>/status; sleep 1; done

This shows me VmSize, VmRSS and VmData and they always returns to original values after closing apps.

Fixed that too. I'm now starting commiting new release, it will be available soon.

Do you guys have any other bugreports for telescope?
Sorry for extremely low activity during that year...

But after that time i want to promote Telescope 2.0 into Extras and i want to fix what is still broken.

Unfortunately auouymous is away for about 6 months, so he won't be able to give any answer till then.
Just in case, I may try to monitor X for a while using the same method.

Not a telescope bug, properly speaking, but a X compositing bug.
The camera application has trouble showing the camera image. See this post for more details: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=424
As yet another dirty workaround, is it possible that telescope could send some event to this window with the same effect than the empty notification?

Thanks, that would be great!

Ok i will try to create some workaround for that.
But i have no idea how to figure out if given window uses camera. It is easy to detect `camera' application window or event videocall window. But i hope these two are only apps which use camera on N8x0

And thank you for your nice solution with command line for empty notification!

Looks like it might have been fixed in rc14.

I had to re-install Canola today. I uninstalled it, and then installed and ran canola-cleanup. Some of the diagnostic messages displayed when canola-cleanup ran mentioned Telescope, but I didn't pay much attention. Then I re-installed Canola and got all the settings back to where I want them.

But then I discovered that Telescope was uninstalled in the process. Any idea why this happened? Reinstalling it was fine, and my previous settings were maintained, so it's not a big deal, just confusing.
