[Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
freemangordon urged me to announce this, so here it is:
Over at http://maemo.merlin1991.at/cssu/community-devel/ we have a repository that holds truly "bleeding edge" packages for cssu. It's a double edged sword, on one hand you'll have the latest and greatest packages meant for the cssu, but on the other hand you risk installing mostly untested software. The repository has no updated metapackage, so ham isn't going to notice most of the updates in here. The prefered way to upate would be to use Code:
apt-get update Also since this is truly a development repo we would prefer to handle issues with packages from there within this thread and not on the bugtracker. A log of the changes can be found here: http://maemo.merlin1991.at/cssu/comm...el/changes.log |
Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
to make it short
this is a place where devels share new stuff that's under development and most likely will explode right into your face. THERE IS NO SUPPORT beyond what's happening in this thread and/or IRC, don't even think about reporting bugs at bugtracker! Post any comments either here, or (preferably) /join #maemo-ssu @ freenode, and ping the devel of pkg in question there. /j |
Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
Thanks a lot, will be happy to test it after preparing full backups.
BTW, please, read carefully what merlin and joerg have said - unlike general repositories, this is place of constant development, so -devel really mean it, like in "good'old'days". Beware: http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...XL._SY355_.jpg /Estel |
Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
Do you have interest in any specific tests to be done?
For example, the change to async operation in Modest is clearly critical, but easy to test, while the changes in ke-recv or gnome-vfs2 might be difficult to track. |
Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
+1 for Estel
I will help you testing this after getting full backup but i have some exams right now :/ thanks :) |

So, check if there are no regressions using whatever methodology you like, plus reports if something "looks strange" will be appreciated. |
Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
Some kind of 'development' repository full of development grade software?
How deliciously novel! |
Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
looks promising i'll test it too as soon i can me too i have exams next week.
thanks ! ./sifo |
Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
i will also help in testing. will create full system backup if incase anything goes wrong.
Time to play again with my beloved device. |
Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
i'll test it out soon

Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
Guys, any useful reports?

Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
new version of operator-name-cbs-widget pushed in cssu-devel, changelog:
Code:
operator-name-cbs-widget (3.1.1) unstable; urgency=low |
Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
Hm, I just added the cssu-devel repo and installed operator-name-cbs-widget. After installation the 'Operator Name Widget' entry disappeared from the Settings. And it's still gone after a reboot. What am I missing?
Have latest CSSU-Testing installed. |

Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
New version of hildon-desktop is available.
Changelog: Code:
* Fixes BMO #12052: Orientation lock causes incoming call to not display properly |
Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
New hildon-desktop is available, version 2.2.145-1.
Changes: Code:
* Improved whitelist functionality. |
Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
Running great so far! :)
|
Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
Hmm don't know if this is the right place to ask but I guess it atleast reaches the people who have the power to change it: Would it be possible for the custom operator widget to show the date as custom text? IMO it's a nice place to show the current date :)

I also noticed that my (whitelisted and non forced-rotation) conversations works perfect now in portrait and in combination with portrait vkb (no more jumping back to landscape etc). Don't know if it is related to the "Improved whitelist functionality" or "support for launching apps in portrait mode", but it certainly improves my everyday user experience. |

A good way to put info up there is to use QBW (or any widget generation method you like that supports placing itself in arbituary positions on the screen) and to disable the CSD widget altogether. On saying that, this is TMO, not XDA. We can do anything! The information to be displayed in the CSD widget (the custom name) is simply a gconf value. We can change the gconf value and display ANY information we like in the CSD widget. For example, I have a little script stored in /etc/network/if-up.post/50_operator_ip that echo s the IP address of the currently active internet connection (wifi or GPRS) to the appropriate gconf value. This way, when I am connected to the internet, the operator name is in fact my IP address! This has its limitations though. If you turn GSM off, the CSD widget is disabled and will not work. |
Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
Three more packages in the repo:
osso-systemui-tklock (touch screen unlock slider) osso-systemui-powerkeymenu (the menu that appears when you press the power key) those had severe memory leaks, should be fixed in their re-write counterparts osso-systemui-alarm - (Alarm dialog) - this is just a newer version(0.3.3), nothing has changed compared to 0.3.2, just some source code cleanup. Please test and report if something is not as it should be. |
Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
Hi Freemangordon,maybe it sounds stupid but,is there any chance to putting cssu-thumb2 in that repo

Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
Another hildon-desktop release (2.2.146-1). This version should be installed in parallel with libmatchbox2 0.2.92-1, which is also available in the CSSU-devel repository.
Hildon-desktop changelog: Code:
* Build-Depends: Increase required version of the libmatchbox2-dev. Code:
Fixes: Dialog window doesn't inherit parent's portrait flag. |
Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
Why no dependency if it libmatchbox2 should be installed with the latest h-d?

Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
I've been using cssu-testing for more than a year, and today i upgraded to cssu-devel after a clean reflash,
no bugs found so far and all is fine, it took about 8 MB from rootfs. Thanks for your hard work :) oh and by the way my brain is fine :p Edit: there something i noticed in cssu testing and devel, which is when i scroll slowly in portrait mode i can see the icons in the app menu "waving" a little ( it is not the icons, it is the portrait mode in everything but it is more visible there...) And i cant seem to see such a thing in landscape mode. Thanks ./sifo |

thanks. But I need to report at least one oddity with powerkeymenu. I extracted the lib from deb, put it to right place and restarted. When I want to start top or call my own scripts from menu, there is something strange. When I have a x-terminal open, everything is fine. But when there is not already a x-term open, then nothing happens. A fast compare with included systemui.xml against my own did not show anything different. For the other two packages I did not find anything odd. Especially the alarmui package has been tested for longer time (and we found that h-h with some widget may cause not-ringing, but it is/was not cuased by alarmui itself). |
Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
new version (0.3.0.1+0cssu0) of osso-systemui-tklock in the repo, it fixes missing background when top application (before lock) is in portrait mode.
@peterleinchen - may I have your custom .xml, so I can test it here? |
Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
new version (0.3.0.2) of osso-systemui-powerkeymenu is in the repo, it fixes the problem reported by peterleinchen.
@peterleinchen - thanks a lot for reporting that. |
Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
..and btw thanks for fixing #12052. It's quite unsual to have the call screen rotated (again, as it was w/ stock) into portrait when landscape-locked, but at least all buttons are accessible.

Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
Hmm, could it be, that the new profiles switching solution defaults all ringtones to Nokia Tune although in Settings->Profiles (there are still listed only Silent and General) it is defined differently... Anybody else noticed that?

I thought i installed cssu-devel, is it normal as it appears in about community SSU ? or i made my own mix between testing and devel :rolleyes:
thanks in advance @acrux I noticed that too ;) ./sifo |
Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
Hi sifo,
I don't think there is such a thing as a "cssu-devel". There are only testing and stable flavors. "CSSU devel" is the repository where packages being developed for inclusion in the next "Testing Flavor" are made. |
Re: [Announce] CSSU devel, it may eat your brain
Yey i missed that, you are right, Thanks !
