    I installed UFRaw yesterday and was able to adjust and covert a raw image to a jpg with no problems. I may give Raw Studio a try too.

    I just installed KeePassX, and wow; this is the password manager I've been looking for.

    It is QT, not GTK, so no tap 'n hold, but I can't even see a use for it. Everything works great. If it wasn't for some of the forms being slightly too big and the font on the small side, I would practically think it was designed for the tablets (even memory use is low ).

    I seriously recommend you guys take a look at this.

    Sorry if this has been asked/answered (I tried searching for threads with 'battery' but didn't locate an answer): Do we have a working battery status applet anywhere for deblet? Or is there something in /proc with information on remaining charge? I poked around and didn't find anything; perhaps I've been spoiled by acpi.

    There is a xfce-battery-applet that is included in the local repo for XFCE.

    I have no had my deblet on a single WM long enough for me to even both trying to figure out how/if it works.

    KDE4's default battery applet also appears to work.. at least in a general sense. It says a percentage but doesn't change for a very long time.. when it was empty the battery applet was empty.. when it was full the applet was full.. but after a few hours running on battery it didn't seem to actually "change"

    Heh...that KDE one sounds handy. It's kinda like "If the tablet powers up, you have some battery power remaining. If not, you don't."
    I'll check out the xfce applet, thanks much.

    The "fullness" of Li-poly batteries is especially hard to guess at. Even the OS2008 battery meter will suddenly drop from "full" to "empty" on me if I'm doing something battery intensive, and the time between the first non-full step and "empty" is always a fraction of the time between "full charge" and the first non-full step.

    Has anyone gotten cellwriter working? It loads and runs fine for me in Easy Debian, but other apps don't seem to accept characters from it. Seems like a perfect fit for the it if we could get it working.

    Epiphany-gecko so far has been the fastest and most stable browser for me.

    I've wanted a good Flickr uploader program for a while now, something that will upload pictures from my camera via the N800. I finally hunted around the Debian repos and found Postr. It works fine, better than anything else I've found. A couple of bugs, but <shrug> ... still better than the competition.



    One of the bugs is that you have to upload from the File menu. The button under the photo list doesn't seem to do anything...

    I run the following apps:
    1. fortune: fortune cookies (you can make your own)
    2. gmessage: gtk2 messagebox to replace xmessagebox. I use it to display fortune cookies.
    3. gjots2: tree-style notes organizer. Simpler than maemopad+ but more versatile in tree organization.
    4. gthumb: image viewer with editing features.
    5. scim: for Chinese input! I've uninstalled maemocjk from diablo because it replaces the hildon keyboard with matchbox-keyboard, and worst still it can't work with microb browser.
    6. freemind: it works! but very slow (slower than iceweasel browser).
