Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard

Oh my gawd! I just discovered this today, installed it on my N800, and I am blown away! Hasn't crashed yet, is stable and fast, and improves on MicroB in so many ways that it brings tears to my eyes!...

Re: Maemo Mapper v2.2 for OS2006/OS2007/OS2008

Is it possible to use the tiles from this site in Maemo mapper:

http://www.streetmaps.co.za/

They've somehow disabled the right clicks so I can't get the URL's for the map tiles.

Re: Pidgin or RTCOMM?

You're probably right. I was thinking of that after I posted. Still, it's a very slow process.

Re: Pidgin or RTCOMM?

Hmmm, that 'away' bug in rtcomm is worse than I thought. It sets you as away even if you are busy using your NIT. Even if you disable auto-away in the presence settings. You only find out when you...

Re: Pidgin or RTCOMM?

I switched from pidgin to rtcomm because of difficulty finding a chat window in pidgin once it is minimised. You have to click the systray icon, then your whole desktop goes blank, then you have to...

Re: mp4 video playback capabilities?

I was wondering, since the limitation of video playback on the N8x0 is the LCD bandwidth, couldn't we get a player like mplayer to play a non-transcoded video by scaling down the uncompressed frames...

Re: Sticky suggestion : Known OS2008 known issues

As for the sticky scrolling bug, I get it very often. I am surprised that there isn't more noise about it on this forum. It even happens when using the d-pad to scroll, so it's not limited to the...

Re: installing programs on memory card

Would it not be easier to just move a few mount points to the storage card? For example, mount /usr as /media/mmc2/usr and /home as /media/mmc2/home? I believe this could be done in /etc/fstab but I...

Re: Abiword on N800

Yes I know, all I was saying is that the UI, when run on the N800, is still usable (because the previous post said that it would *never* work). Obviously, with Hildonization, it would be even better....

Re: Abiword on N800

I'm not convinced of this. I used ssh -X to connect to my desktop PC, ran OpenOffice and it was quite usable on the N800 tablet (provided you have a bluetooth keyboard or N810). Even with the...

Re: Get Java on your Nokia N800

Benson - it's the non-end-user-friendliness that gets me :( I think with jalimo + midpath, one might be able to get java midlets running, but it seems to require human-parsing of jad file to...

Re: Get Java on your Nokia N800

dunsun - jalimo has a working swt example, if that helps. I prefer swt to swing anyways. It's a one-click install that installs java (cacao) + everything else needed to run the demo. See...

Re: Get Java on your Nokia N800

Is there any way to use Jalimo or this phoneME thing to run j2me apps? In particular, has anyone got amazegps, nav4all, opera mini, mxit, mig33, or mobizines working on the n8x0? Java applets would...

Re: Tasks - a to do list / task manager application

The Task program is quite good, but sadly there's no easy way to sync the stuff. A simple and quite adequate sync feature would have been the ability to import an ICS file from a URL and write to it....

Re: Maemo Mapper v2.2 for OS2006/OS2007/OS2008

Would it at all be possible to reverse-engineer the map tiles and route from either of the following Java MIDP apps:

- Amazegps.com
- Nav4All.com

Both of them provide accurate map tiles and...
