I have noticed there are several threads complaining about how the ui can't decide wether it wants to be finger or stylus oriented. I personaly don't use my finger at all because of grime and such, so I want to put together a minimalist ui optimised for stylus use only. I would also like to get screen rotation working (my last attempt at that failed, but I'll give it another shot). My goal is to have a narrow bar along the bottom of the screen with status bar icons, a menu button and a task switcher. I see four potential solutions (all of wich require more research):
1. Some kind of custom hildon theme.
2. kde
3. debian with xfce
4. openbox
I've always had a bit of a crush on fluxbox, so 4 seems best to me, but I'd REALLY APRECIATE SOME ADVICE. This is my weekend project, so we'll see if anything comes of it...
Sorry I don't have any advice, but I'd like to voice my support for the stylus. As a long term pilot user I naturally use the stylus and don't want fingerprints on that beautiful screen. good luck with your weekend project.
