Some remarks (apply to beta 1 and beta 2, not sure if this is still an issue with PR1.2 beta):

* WARNING: If updating from beta 1 to beta 2 and you wish to keep data without breaking Twitter and encountering dataloss, there is a [[Migrating_from_N900_to_N950#Migrating_from_beta_1_to_beta_2|section on the Migration page]] that you should follow
* There are some problems when flashing from some recent versions of popular distributions. openSUSE 11.4, Ubuntu 11.10 and Fedora 15 are known to cause problems during the rootfs and mmc steps. Error messages contain plenty of "bb5_rdc_cert_read failed". Archlinux, Meego and slightly older versions of the listed above have been used successfully. If you get that error, use [http://www.martindengler.com/proj/n950-flasher-beta1/ the flasher from beta1].

How to extract the files inside the self-extracting OCF archive:

<pre>
function extract-OCF {
ARCHIVE=`head -c 10000 "$1" | awk '/^__ARCHIVE_BELOW__/ {print NR + 1; exit 0; }'`
echo "Extracting the archive from OneClickFlasher to current directory in 5s... (^C to abort)"
sleep 5
echo "Extracting started at "`date "+%H:%M:%S"`
tail -n +$ARCHIVE "$1" | tar -C . -xf -
echo "Extracting finished at "`date "+%H:%M:%S"`
}

Reporting bugs is really tricky thing to do because of the problem about which component is guilty: is it MeeGo core component or Nokias component of Harmattan.

Games

2011-08-09T15:16:48Z

Thp:

We're here to bring cool, open and closed source games to MeeGo. This is as of yet an '''unofficial''' project, as we first want to get cool stuff out and then care about cutting through red tape (registering and blessing everything through Community office, etc..). Visit the '''unofficial''' MeeGo Games channel on FreeNode: '''#meego-games'''. Did we say '''unofficial''' yet? ;)

=== Mong ===

[[File:Games_mong.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Development status as of 2011-06-02]]

This is a pong-like multi-touch game targetting primarily tablets. The project has been started during the MeeGo Conference 2011 in San Francisco as a way to experiment with multi-touch and get some fun out of the ExoPCs. See [http://gitorious.org/mong/mong/ Mong on Gitorious].

* [[user:conny|Cornelius Hald]]
* [[user:thp|Thomas Perl]]
* [[user:timsamoff|Tim Samoff]]

End-user information about the game can be found on the [http://thp.io/2011/mong/ Mong homepage].

<div style="clear: right;"></div>

=== That Rabbit Game ===

[[File:Games_trg.jpg|200px|thumb|right|That Rabbit Game running on an ExoPC (2011-05-31)]]

This is a closed-source game using the QGraphicsView framework. You are a kleptomanic rabbit head with wings and try to loose 10 coins in 90 seconds by getting shot. Think of it as a reverse duck hunt game. It makes use of Qt Mobility's Accelerometer feature, so if you want to play it on the ExoPC, please apply the [[Devices/ExoPC#Hardware_Fixes|acceleromated-related fixes]] to your MeeGo Tablet UX installation.

* [http://thp.io/2010/trg/ That Rabbit Game]

A video of the current gameplay on an ExoPC can be found here: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGlJ9akWIsw That Rabbit Game gameplay]. Please note that it's difficult to hold a camera in one hand and control the (accelerometer-based) game with the other hand. It's much more fun playing with two hands, obviously ;)

<div style="clear: right;"></div>

=== Let's Mee Go ===
[[File:letsmeego.png|200px|thumb|right|Gameplay screenshot]]Let's MeeGo is an horizontal scrolling game, dedicated to MeeGo. The hero of this game, infact, is a MeeGon: the official mascotte of MeeGo.
The gameplay is very simple!
The only thing that the player must do is one click on the screen! If the click is in high position MeeGon will jump for avoid lower obstacles, if the click is recognized in a low part of the screen MeeGon will slide and avoid the higher obstacles.

[http://http://www.noidimeego.it/index.php/programmazione/204-lets-meego Let's Mee Go Page] for download .deb and source file.

<div style="clear: right;"></div>

=== Gaberln ===

[[File:Games_Gaberln.png|200px|thumb|right|Gaberln screenshot]]

A game where you have to kick and bounce the ball as often as possible. For MeeGo Handsets. As soon as the ball hits the ground, the counter starts fresh.

magnus-plus photo: an application that combines a camera-based magnifier with more advanced image processing techniques, that would enable one to: 
- use it as a magnifier (with optional light from the camera LED). 
- use it as a photo negatives lightbox that automatically inverts the negatives and adjusts the colors for proper display:
the user just have to hover it over the (back-lit) negatives and on the screen the corresponding positive (or magnified part of it) is displayed in real-time. 
- use it as an EVF add-on to SLRs to help with manual focus, leveraging the possibility of amplifying contrast and magnifying.

Making a small and smart mobile widgets toolkit on top of plain QWidget + CSS for styling, named MWTk.
And using this toolkit to make several apps for MeeGo (and runs onto Maemo5 and Symbian too, even on desktop OS) and a new environment, that aims to be a good alternative to default MeeGo Handset UX, bringing it on pair with Harmattan UX, by giving it a successor to the deprecated MeeGoTouchFramework.
Already some testable sources can be found on the project gitorious repos.
https://gitorious.org/meego-community-mobile-ux-ng
And there is a page with some screenshots of the look that MTWk can do (this page will be moved on gitorious wiki soon) :

Thp: moved Documentation for pyside-assistant to Python/pyside-assistant

== Setting up ==

==== Installing from Ubuntu PPA ====

Coming soon! Right now the only way to get ''pyside-assistant'' is compiling it from source. See the next section.

==== Building and installing from source ====

To build and install ''pyside-assistant'' you will need a Debian-based Linux distribution. First, install ''sharutils'' and ''python-stdeb'' packages, that are runtime dependencies of ''pyside-assistant''. Get the source from the Gitorious [https://gitorious.org/harmattan-python/pyside-assistant page], then in the directory which pyside-assistant was downloaded, run:

<nowiki>
$ dpkg-buildpackage -D -rfakeroot -us -uc
</nowiki>

'''Warning: Do not install ''python-stdeb'' from the git sources, or pyside-assistant will not work properly!''' The version from Debian and Ubuntu (0.6.0+20100620-1) works as expected.

Now go back a directory level and install the binary package:

<nowiki>
$ sudo dpkg -i pyside-assistant_0.1-1_all.deb
</nowiki>

== Usage Instructions ==

The main script for using pyside-assistant is <code>psa</code>.

==== init command ====

The ''init'' command creates a project from the templates. It receives as a mandatory argument a string that identifies the entire project, called project slug. The following call will create a project in the current directory with the project slug sampleproject:

<nowiki>
$ psa init sampleproject
</nowiki>

All project files will be contained in a directory named after the project slug, which in this case is sampleproject. Additional parameters can be passed to <code>psa init</code> to set various fields from the start; these parameters are shown below:

<nowiki>
-a APPNAME, --app-name=APPNAME
Human-readable application name, refers to the Name field of sampleproject.desktop
-s SECTION, --section=SECTION
Application section, refers to the section field of stdeb.cfg
-d DESC, --description=DESC
Application short description, refers to the description field of setup.py
-c CATEGORY, --category=CATEGORY
Application category, refers to the appname field of sampleproject.desktop
</nowiki>

The created projects come with a file called README.assistant, which lists what each file does. The contents of this file is listed below:

<nowiki>
=========================================
README - pyside-assistant generated files
=========================================

All files generated by psa init are described below. The sampleproject
slug used for them was 'sampleproject', with the following psa call:

$ psa init sampleproject

* MANIFEST.in: Distutils considers a list of files by default for
installation, listed at [1]. Additional files to be distributed
must be supplied in the MANIFEST.in file. The generated file includes
the .desktop file and any QML files found.

[1] http://docs.python.org/distutils/sourcedist.html#specifying-the-files-to-distribute.

* setup.py: The main file for using Distutils, contains most of the
information needed to build the package. Information about setup.py
can be found at http://docs.python.org/distutils/introduction.html.
Two fields of this file can be modified by psa update parameters:
- description: -d or --description
- long_description: the contents of sampleproject.longdesc are used

* stdeb.cfg: Configuration file for stdeb, specifying additional
parameters for the binary package. The specification for this
file can be found at https://github.com/astraw/stdeb, in the section
stdeb.cfg configuration file. One field of this file can be modified by
psa update parameters:
- Section: -s or --section

Note that the section should be a valid one,
as specified in http://wiki.maemo.org/Task:Package_categories#New_list_for_Diablo.

* sampleproject.aegis: Sample credentials file, which initially is empty.

* sampleproject.desktop: This file specifies how to run the application
from the application grid, with various fields. Information about
.desktop files can be found at http://wiki.maemo.org/Desktop_file_format.
Two fields of this file can be modified by psa update parameters:
- Name: -a or --app-name
- Category: -c or --category

Note that the category should be a valid one, as specified in
http://standards.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/latest/apa.html.

* sampleproject.png: The application icon, which is displayed in the
application grid.

* sampleproject.qml: The QML file for the application. By default
just displays the words "Hello QML!" in the center of the window.

* sampleproject: Main program. Initializes the application and provide
support for displaying the QML file contents.

* sampleproject.longdesc: Holds the contents of the long_description field of
setup.py, which as the name implies is a more detailed description of what the project is.

</nowiki>

==== build-deb command ====

The ''build-deb'' command does all necessary steps for generating a binary package. It essentially calls stdeb to build the proper Debian package and then places the application icons inside it. For using this command, you just have to enter the project directory and run:

<nowiki>
$ psa build-deb
</nowiki>

The binary package will be found under the ''./deb_dist'' directory.

If you want to add credentials to your project, you have to edit the ''.aegis'' file, which initially is empty and thus ignored. After you write all the necessary credentials to the file it will be injected into the binary package the next time the ''build-deb'' command is called. More information about credentials can be found [http://library.developer.nokia.com/topic/MeeGo_1.2_Harmattan_API/html/guide/html/Developer_Library_Developing_for_Harmattan_Harmattan_security_6cbe.html here]

==== update command ====
The ''update'' command can change certain values inside the project files, minimizing the need to open and edit them directly. This command accepts the following parameters:

<nowiki>
-a APPNAME, --app-name=APPNAME
Human-readable application name, resides in sampleproject.desktop
-s SECTION, --section=SECTION
Application section, resides in stdeb.cfg
-d DESC, --description=DESC
Application short description, resides in setup.py
-c CATEGORY, --category=CATEGORY
Application category, resides in sampleproject.desktop
</nowiki>

These parameters can be used in any order. As an example, to change the description and section of the project, run:

<nowiki>
$ psa update -d "Sample project" -s games
</nowiki>

== Example workflow ==
<nowiki>
$ psa init sampleproject
$ cd sampleproject
(... hack ...)
$ psa build-deb
(... copy binary package to destination and install it ...)
(... hack some more ...)
$ psa update -c AudioVideo -s graphics
$ psa build-deb

(and so on.)
</nowiki>

== Packaging generic Python applications ==

''pyside-assistant'' was initially conceived for creating PySide applications, but in fact it can be used to build binary packages for any pure Python application that uses [http://docs.python.org/distutils/index.html Python Distutils].

For that purpose, follow these steps:

* Run <code>psa init</code> as usual, to create the initial project layout;
* Erase the ''qml'' directory, as its files are specific to Qt programs;
* Create or add all files of your Python application;
* Edit ''stdeb.cfg'' and replace the contents of the ''Depends'' field with the correct runtime dependencies for your application, if any.
* If you don't have a ''setup.py'' file for your project, edit the provided one removing the ''.qml'' file reference and adding any other project files you need. See the Python Distutils [http://docs.python.org/distutils/index.html documentation] to know how the ''setup.py'' file works and how to edit it.

From now on, the same workflow applies: modify files, build binary package with <code>psa build-deb</code>, update fields with <code>psa update</code>, and so on.

Depending on the device model that you are using, some extra steps are needed to have Python installed on it. Currently there are two models running Meego 1.2 Harmattan:

* '''N950''': this is the developer edition and comes with Python, [http://www.pyside.org PySide] and [http://www.pyside.org/docs/pyside-mobility/ bindings for QtMobility] already installed.
* '''N9''': this is the mass-market end-user device. Development packages does not come pre-installed. See below how to install Python on it!

==== Developer mode ====

Meego 1.2 Harmattan has a special mode - [http://library.developer.nokia.com/topic/MeeGo_1.2_Harmattan_API/html/guide/html/Developer_Library_Developing_for_Harmattan_Activating_developer_mode_1fa5.html Developer Mode] - that enables connectivity between the device and the software development kit (SDK) running on the host. This mode is useful to test applications into device as you develop. Follow the instructions [http://library.developer.nokia.com/topic/MeeGo_1.2_Harmattan_API/html/guide/html/Developer_Library_Developing_for_Harmattan_Activating_developer_mode_1fa5.html here] to enable/disable it.

Once you have got connected to the device using e.g. ssh, you can use ''devel-su'' command to become superuser. Use '''rootme''' as password and you become root.

<nowiki>
$ devel-su
Password:
</nowiki>

However, this will not allow you to execute unregistered scripts or applications. See section ''Security framework'' below to get more information about security on MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan environment.

==== Installing only Python ====

Following the steps shown in the last section you will be able to use ''apt-get''. This application is responsible for package handling on Debian like distributions. If you want to install other modules, like bindings for Qt and QtMobility, see the topic below. As they depend on Python, it will be automatically installed too - there is no need to install just Python before them.

To have only Python installed on your device, run:

<nowiki>
$ apt-get update
...

$ apt-get install python
</nowiki>

Welcome to the Python world!

==== Installing other Python-related packages ====

MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan platform uses [http://library.developer.nokia.com/topic/MeeGo_1.2_Harmattan_API/html/guide/html/Developer_Library_Application_development_framework_ebcf.html QtQuick] as its preferred method to develop interfaces. The [http://www.pyside.org PySide] project provides Python bindings for Qt allowing Python developers to develop their interfaces. [http://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/PySideDocumentation/ Here] you can find useful information on how to develop using PySide/QtQuick/QML. If you plan to develop applications that use just Qt (without QML) they will not integrate (use and feel) with the native interface.

To install these new packages you can continue from the same terminal opened in the last section. Again, use ''apt-get'' to install all the needed packages:

<nowiki>
# Install PySide:
$ apt-get install python-pyside
</nowiki>

There are also [http://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/PySideDocumentation/#704d2ca247b8787c6738c5a47d3f98ec bindings] for [http://doc.qt.nokia.com/qtmobility-1.2/index.html QtMobility]. To install them:

<nowiki>
# Install PySide-QtMobility
$ apt-get install python-qtmobility
</nowiki>

There are some other modules already ported / being ported and the easiest way to install all of them is:

<nowiki>
# Install all available python bindings
$ apt-get install python-modules-all
</nowiki>

== Tasting PySide/QML ==

If you have skipped any of the previous sections and have PySide installed you can see here an [http://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/Hello_World_in_PySide_and_QtQuick example] taken from PySide documentation website.

[http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/qdeclarativeintroduction.html QML] is a declarative language designed to describe the user interface of a program: both what it looks like, and how it behaves. In QML, a user interface is specified as a tree of objects with properties. In this tutorial we will show how you can make a simple Hello World application with PySide and QML.

A PySide/QML application consists, at least, of two different files – a file with the QML description of the user interface, and a python file which loads the qml file. To avoid problems for now, don’t forget to save both files in the same folder.

Here is a simple QML file, called ''view.qml'':

<nowiki>
import Qt 4.7

Rectangle {
width: 200
height: 200
color: "red"

Text {
text: "Hello World"
anchors.centerIn: parent
}
}
</nowiki>

We start by importing Qt 4.7. As it is pretended that QtQuick has a different build schedule than Qt/PySide, in the near future you will have to change this to import QtQuick 1.0. But for now, it works as is.

The rest of the QML code, is pretty straigthforward for those who have used previously HTML or XML files. Basically, we are creating a red rectangle with the size ''200*200'' and, inside that rectangle, we are adding a Text element which says ''Hello World''. The code ''anchors.centerIn: parent'' just makes the text appear centered in relation to its imediate parent.

Now, let’s see how the code looks on the PySide. Let’s call it main.py:

<nowiki>
#!/usr/bin/python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

import sys
from PySide.QtCore import *
from PySide.QtGui import *
from PySide.QtDeclarative import QDeclarativeView

# Create Qt application and the QDeclarative view
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
view = QDeclarativeView()
# Create an URL to the QML file
url = QUrl('view.qml')
# Set the QML file and show
view.setSource(url)
view.show()
# Enter Qt main loop
sys.exit(app.exec_())
</nowiki>

To run the example remember to use:

<nowiki>
$ python ./main.py
</nowiki>

As this script is not packaged/registered it will fail if you call just ''./main.py''. The next section better explains these concepts.

If you are already familiar with PySide and have followed our tutorials, much of this code is already familiar. The only novelties is that you must import QDeclarativeView and set the source of the QDeclarativeView object to the URL of your QML file. Then, as any Qt widget, you call ''QDeclarativeView.show()''.

Take your time exploring this example. You can try to do basic things as changing the colors, the text, or set other properties to each element, setting a radius on the rectangle color. Check the elements and their properties in [http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/qdeclarativeelements.html QML Elements].

== Security framework for Python scripts ==

To run applications (binaries and scripts) it is necessary to follow some security guidelines. Information about the implications of the security framework for applications in general can be found [https://projects.maemo.org/mediawiki/index.php/Developer_Library/Developing_for_Harmattan/Harmattan_security here].

Without a proper package it will not be possible to run executable Python scripts without pre-pending ''python''. The following call would fail:

<nowiki>
$ ./dosomething.py
-sh: ./dosomething.py: Permission denied
</nowiki>

However, using the Python interpreter for calling the script works as expected:

<nowiki>
$ python ./dosomething.py
</nowiki>

The next section shows how to package your Python application.

'''Note:''' if the script is modified after it is installed it will fail to run!

== Packaging ==

As explained in the previous section there are some restrictions to run applications/scripts. Your application has to be installed from a Debian package.

The easiest way to create Python packages for MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan is to use ''pyside-assistant''. After a few steps you will have a Debian package ready to be installed. You will have to inform all the resources that your application needs - avoiding problems with the Security Framework. To see all supported features and how to use ''pyside-assistant'', including an example, follow this [[Documentation_for_pyside-assistant|link]].

Python 2.6 porting tips

Thp: moved Python 2.6 porting tips to Python/Porting from Python 2.5 to 2.6

== Introduction ==

Porting a package to support Python 2.6 usually involves making it version agnostic, removing any explicit Python versioning. In Maemo versions prior to Maemo 5, the packages had hardcoded support for Python 2.5, which can be demonstrated by all Python binding packages having "python2.5-" as prefix and consequently Python applications having these names also on their runtime dependencies. As Maemo 5 also used Python 2.5, these packages still worked without much problems, but as MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan uses Python 2.6 they will have to be ported.

== Python 2.6 porting tips ==

* First of all, consider using [[Documentation_for_pyside-assistant|pyside-assistant]] for taking care of the packaging of your application, instead of packaging it by hand. This way you can avoid dealing with various issues regarding Debian packaging and focus mostly in the application itself.
* Any paths that, for some reason, have hardcoded "python2.5" or "site-packages" will have to be changed to "python2.6" and "dist-packages", as these are the ones used on Python 2.6.
* If your application uses any <code>python2.5</code> prefixed package as one of its dependencies in any Depends field, you should drop the version number and add the version as a requirement - for example, <code>python2.5</code> can be changed to <code>python (>= 2.5)</code> without problems. If this is not possible or not desired, just change the dependencies to their <code>python2.6</code> counterparts.
* Also, this would be a good time for your package to be named following the new [http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/python-policy Debian Python Policy] - the Policy states that Python packages must not have a fixed version number on its name (e.g. prefer python-foo instead of python2.6-foo).
* One very particular case where changes are required is when some Python script uses identifiers that became reserved keywords in Python 2.6. As an example, old versions of python-xml had this issue, where the <code>as</code> identifier (which became a reserved keyword in Python 2.6) was being used as variable name in some places. If these occurrences are not replaced, running the script will result in syntax errors.

== Introduction ==

The Harmattan Python project provides a Python runtime environment for Nokia's N9 phone and the N950 developer device built on the MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan platform. It provides a full-featured set of packages and tools to rapidly develop and run Python applications using the PySide: Python for Qt bindings together with the Qt Quick UI definition language. Applications can be deployed as individual Debian packages, using the community OBS, or eventually, via Ovi Store.

== Getting started ==

If you are interested just in installing applications that depend on Python you can get a lot of them using the repositories listed here. All depending packages will be automatically installed.

* [http://www.ovi.nokia.com Ovi Store];
* [http://wiki.meego.com/MeeGo_Apps MeeGo Apps];
* [http://apps-beta.meego.com/applications/ MeeGo Apps - Beta];

Maliit/Ideas

2011-06-07T15:27:44Z

Thp: /* Python input method plugin interface */

[[Category:Maliit]][[Category:MeeGo Input Methods]]

{{MaliitNavigationBar}}

Here are some ideas for what you could do with Maliit. Some are things we really want to get done (but have not committed to), some are down-to-earth nice-to-have, while others are perhaps a bit more in the crazy, experimental or show-that-it-can-be-done spirit. Feel free to add ideas here. Use the template idea if you want. For bugs or concrete features suggestions, please use the bugtracker.

=== Template Idea ===
Short description of the idea.

'''Difficulty/effort:''' How much work does it take to complete this (assuming a Maliit dev. environent is already set up) Example: Easy, 5 hours of work 
'''Status:''' What is the status of implementing this idea? Example: "In progress, this and that has been done" 
'''Skills required:''' What do people need to know in order to complete the implementation of this idea? Example: Qt | Packaging | Gtk+ | QML 
'''Contact person:''' Who interested people should contact if they want to work on this. This can be a "mentor" that has insight into the relevant areas, or someone who has started working on it. Example: Real Name (ircnick) 

Longer description. Ideas, challenges, and considerations for the implementation. Neccesary tasks to complete. Links to other relevant projects or work. Mockups, video demos, et.c.

== Meego Keyboard Ideas ==

=== Key gestures ===
Input variations of a character using gestures on that key. For instance, to input a upper case A, tap 'a', move upward and release. Accented characters can be done by gesturing sideways.

=== Predictive keyboard ===
Details of idea can be found under [[Predictive_virtual_keyboard]].

'''Difficulty/effort:''' Easy, 10 hours of work 
'''Skills required:''' Meego keyboard, Qt, C++ 
'''Status:''' Experimental merge request available 
'''Contact person:''' Michael Hasselmann (mikhas)

Experimental MRQ available: https://meego.gitorious.org/meegotouch/meegotouch-inputmethodkeyboard/merge_requests/269

Screenshot/demo video pleaz?
-- Was demonstrated during the Meego Conference San Fransisco talk. Video will hopefully become available

== Input Method (plugin) Ideas ==

=== Dasher input method ===
Allow input using a [[:wikipedia:Dasher|Dasher]] input method.

'''Difficulty/effort:''' Unknown, 25 hours of work? 
'''Skills required:''' C/C++, Qt, input method API 
'''Status:''' Just talk! 
'''Contact person:'''

Dasher is a simple but innovative way of doing text input, a for this plugin would be very useful, especially for accessibility.
Dasher already has a Qt based UI, so it might be possible to reuse large parts of the code.

* [http://git.gnome.org/browse/dasher/ Homepage]
* [http://git.gnome.org/browse/dasher/ Repository]
* [https://bugzilla.gnome.org/browse.cgi?product=dasher Bugtracker]

=== Clutter-based plugin ===
Show that input method plugins can be implemented using Clutter.

'''Difficulty/effort:''' Easy, 15 hours of work 
'''Skills required:''' Clutter, input method API 
'''Status:''' Just talk! 
'''Contact person:'''

This should be easy to do using [http://git.clutter-project.org/cgit.cgi?url=clutter-qt/tree/README clutter-qt]. Ideally writing such would not require to compile using C++/Qt, but a C/GObject interface be provided.

=== Gtk+ based plugin ===
Show that input method plugins can be implemented using Gtk+.

'''Difficulty/effort:''' Medium, 15 hours of work 
'''Skills required:''' Gtk+, Qt, input method API 
'''Status:''' Just talk! 
'''Contact person:'''

A bit harder than the Clutter case, but should be possible. In the simple but hacky form have a <code>QWidget</code> and a <code>GtkWidget</code> and syncronize the relevant state between them. Let the GtkWidget render offscreen and paint the GtkWidget content to the <code>QWidget</code> in <code>::paintEvent()</code>.

=== Python input method plugin interface ===
Support writing input methods in [[Python]].

'''Difficulty/effort:''' Medium, 15 hours of work 
'''Skills required:''' Python, PySide, input method API 
'''Status:''' Just talk! 
'''Contact person:'''

Python is an officially supported language for Meego. It would be nice if we supported writing plugins using Python. Allowing this can be done in a similar way we currently support QML (see [https://meego.gitorious.org/meegotouch/meegotouch-inputmethodframework/trees/master/input-method-quick input-method-quick code])
Python bindings would have to be generated for the input method API. This should probably be done using [http://www.pyside.org/ PySide].

== Non-Meego run-time environments ==

=== Maliit in Gnome 3 ===
Gnome looks to be interested in expanding to touch-centric environments. Therefore showing that Maliit is the right solution to use for input methods in Gnome would be worth-while.

'''Difficulty/effort:'''
* For prototype demo: Easy, 20 hours of work
* For really good integration: Medium, xxx hours of work
'''Skills required:''' Gnome technology, Maliit integration 
'''Status:''' Prototype work has been demonstrated

* [https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=612662 Issue in bugtracker for on-screen keyboard]

TODO: document all the things needed for really good integration

=== Maliit on Windows ===
The main goal here would be to allow plugin development to happen on Windows. Since Meego Input Methods is implemented using Qt, this should in theory not be too hard. However, the DBus transport used between framework and inputcontext might need to be replaced by another IPC, and some X specific code might need to be reimplemented or removed.

See also [[Maliit/Ideas/Supporting_Non_X11_Platforms]]

=== Maliit in KDE ===
KDE also seems to be growing an interest in on-screen keyboards, touchscreen centric UI and mobile device form factors.

== Other ==
=== Commandline option to switch between D-Bus session bus and direct socket ===
Currently a peer-to-peer connection with a socket file is used for input context <-> framework communication.
Having a option to use the session bus would be nice. This allows one to make use of DBus features like on-demand service activation, or to easily introspect/debug the service.

'''Difficulty/effort:''' Easy, 20 hours of work 
'''Skills required:''' dbus, dbus-glib, C/C++ 
'''Status:''' 

* Basically, revert http://meego.gitorious.org/meegotouch/meegotouch-inputmethodframework/commit/1aa9a502005293bf4a808aaed87142f6dbcdffdb
* Add a commandline option to choose between the two methods
* Update the standard input contexts to also support session bus service (and prefer that one over the socket?)

=== Direct C/C++ Input Context API ===
Direct API for input context (no DBus connection).

'''Difficulty/effort:''' Easy, 15 hours 
'''Skills required:''' Qt, C++, input context api 
'''Status:''' 
'''Contact person:''' 

A direct API means that the framework can be tested without having to start up DBus, and that it can run on platforms with DBus.

=== Free and open source correction/prediction plugin ===
Currently there is no free error correction/prediction engine plugin. We of course want to provide this.

'''Difficulty/effort:''' Easy, 20 hours of work 
'''Skills required:''' C/C++, usage of spelling engines 
'''Status:''' Just talk. Help wanted! 

This could be done using one of the existing free spelling engines.
An analysis of the different options should be done before starting on the implementation, looking at the advantages/disadvantages of each. For instance, it might not be that all spelling engines can provide word-prediction.

* Dasher, might be able to use its backend (for prediction)
* ?

=== Window relocation ===
When the application/toolkit does not support widget relocation, fall back to relocating the window to try to keep the text input field visible on screen.

'''Difficulty/effort:''' Medium, 15 hours of work 
'''Skills required:''' X11, ICCM, EWMH 
'''Status:''' Prototype work in progress 
'''Contact person:''' Jon Nordby (jonnor) 

There are two main ways of doing this: 
1. Move/resize the focused window
Getting hold of the window can for instance be done using [http://tronche.com/gui/x/xlib/input/XGetInputFocus.html XGetInputFocus] or the winId attribute of the widgetstate provided by the input context.

2. Move/resize all windows.
Easiest way to do this is probably to create a proxy X window for the region covered by the input method, and setting the [http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/wm-spec-1.3.html#id2447157 _NET_WM_STRUT_PARTIAL] hint. This moves the responsibility of the actual relocation to the window manager.

Both approaches can be implemented solely in IM framework. For a good solution, each input context needs to be able to tell the framework if it can do widget relocation or not, and how much relocation it can to. Then, the framework and input context would have to cooperate on the actual relocation, effectively adding the window as another level to the relocation chain.
It might be necessary to use both, because applications frequently makes use of the "desktop area" when they decide how big they can make their visual elements.

When the window is resized, the toolkit will hopefully maintain the focused input widget visible on screen. It is however not certain that this is the case with common toolkits. Patches might be needed.

=== Input Method Plugin SDK ===
Development kit to enable third-party developers to easily create new input methods.

'''Difficulty/effort:''' Easy, 20 hours of work 
'''Skills required:''' Input Method plugin API 
'''Status:''' Mostly talk 
'''Contact person:''' Jon Nordby (jonnor) 

A good SDK would consist of:
* Comprehensive documentation for plugin API
* Task-oriented documentation for how to develop a plugin
* Skeleton/example code to make it easy to get started
* Above items to be installed on "make install"
* An "installer" that copies the relevant files from system directory to users directory?
* Above items packaged for the target platforms

=== Bluetooth keyboard ===
This would allow you to use your Meego device as a keyboard for other Bluetooth enabled devices.

== Completed ideas ==
Please move ideas here one they have been implemented/explored, and document the effort.

=== QML-based plugin ===
Show that input method plugins can be implemented using Qt Quick and QML.

'''Status:''' Done! 
'''Contact person:''' Michael Hasselmann (mikhas) 

A QML-based input method plugin (keyboard) can be found in the keyboard repositor under meego-keyboard-quick. See [http://taschenorakel.de/michael/2011/05/12/writing-qml-based-input-methods-maliit/ the blogpost announcement] for more details.

=== Maliit on Freemantle+N900 ===
Demonstrate that Maliit can run on Freemantle/N900.

'''Status:''' Done! 
'''Contact person:''' Michael Hasselmann (mikhas) 

Maliit framework and the Meego Quick keyboard is available in the extras-devel repository. See [Maliit/Installing] for how to install. The [http://taschenorakel.de/michael/2011/05/12/writing-qml-based-input-methods-maliit announcement blogpost] also has some info.

ExoPCs were given out at the Mobile World Congress 2011 and [[Local MeeGo Networks/MeeGo Network Finland/MeeGo Summit FI|MeeGo Summit.fi in Apr 2011]].

== How to install latest MeeGo Snapshot ==
* Download img from http://download.meego.com/snapshots/latest/images/meego-tablet-ia32-pinetrail/
* Write to your usb stick with '''dd in=meego.img of=/dev/sdb bs=4M'''
* Put usb stick in tablet and boot up, press bs, select usb stick, now you need a usb keyboard to select install only option
** You can go through the bootloader using the button in the top left corner of the screen, short press to move to the next entry, long press to boot it. USB keyboard is optional.

== Mobile World Congress 2011 / MeeGo Summit.fi Machines : Update Repos ==

These machines were pre-installed with MeeGo 1.1 using a trunk-daily build of 1.1.90.2.20110209.4 (see /etc/zypp/repos/core.repo on the device); this is no longer available.

In the absence of a more stable repo an alternative is to track the latest package set by setting
baseurl=http://download.meego.com/trunk-daily/builds/trunk/latest/repos/oss/ia32/packages/
in the core.repo file.

Then:
zypper ref

(If anyone is brave enough to run ''zypper up'' and potentially need to reinstall then please say how this works.)

I tried that against the latest weekly repo at that time (http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/builds/1.1.90/1.1.99.2.20110412.6/repos/oss/ia32/packages/) and first it hung on updating libc. After a reboot it ran through, but after one more reboot the Tablet UX didn't come back up anymore. Didn't investigate it further. I'll most likely use these instructions: http://meego.com/downloads/releases/1.2/meego-tablet-developer-preview and the image for aforementioned weekly.

== Connecting Qt Creator to the Device ==
Go to Tools->Options; then Projects section, MeeGo Device Configurations tab.

Note that the meego user seems to need sudo rights to be able to run the remote execution:
cat <<EOF > /etc/sudoers.d/su-meego
meego ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
EOF
chmod 440 /etc/sudoers.d/su-meego

sed -i -e's/##includedir/#includedir/' /etc/sudoers

Also, for some reason, /usr/local and /usr/local/bin end up as root:root, mode 770. Fix this with:
sudo chmod 755 /usr/local
sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/bin
This looks like it's due to Qt Creator packaging

== Old Installation Notes ==

'''Warning:''' both the handset and netbook images running on the ExoPC have some problems as
of 1/30/2011. See below.
'''Warning:''' as with any other device, if you incorrectly reflash the bootloader and/or kernel, you may '''brick''' your system.

Sometimes the unit won't boot when a USB mouse is plugged in. An external keyboard doesn't cause the same problems. A mouse can be attached as soon as the MeeGo splashscreen appears. This might be a power problem that would be resolved by a USB hub with an external supply.

Installing the Handset image before the Netbook saves a bit of trouble if both are desired.

The version of parted that is invoked by the MeeGo installers [http://bugs.meego.com/show_bug.cgi?id=12945 will not resize an NTFS partition], so if you want to preserve Windows, use another partitioning tool before booting the MeeGo USB stick. [http://www.sysresccd.org/Main_Page systemrescuecd] worked fine.

The installation described here shrank the Windows partition to the (recommended minimum) 20 GB, then created an extended (logical) partition in the remaining space with a 2 GB swap partition and two primary (Is this right?) partitions of equal size in the remaining space.

Windows may come up and say that the partition table has been corrupted and that it will repair it ;-). The result is that the boot flag is set for the Win System partition, which prevents the extlinux bootloader from starting. To fix the problem, boot once more from the handy systemrescuecd stick and clear the duplicate boot flag from the System partition. Presto: your MeeGo install is again accessible.

== Installation ==

[[File:systemrescuecd_gparted_ExoPC.jpg|750px|frameless|Result of successful partitioning for triple-boot. Booting Windows may cause it to set the "boot" flag on its System partition as shown here and prevent extlinux from loading. Boot again with the systemrescuecd stick to clear the duplicate flag.]]

The ExoPC has an unlocked bootloader, so installation is relatively simple. First [http://meego.com/devices/netbook/installing-meego-your-netbook prepare a USB stick] with the image of your choice. After holding the power button for 4 seconds to start the boot process, touch the "Setup" soft button in the upper-righthand corner of the screen and disable "Quiet Boot." Boot again and touch the "BBS" soft button to manually select your USB drive as the boot device.

The netbook image does not create a useful /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf file. One way of solving the problem is to install the handset image first, mount the handset image from the netbook image and just copy over the extlinux.conf file. Copy the entry for the handset image over to the end of the extlinux.conf file and change the details in order to create a file that works for all the images, then copy back to the handset image.

Don't forget to run "zypper update" from a terminal window as soon as your image is installed.

Warning: always unmount the USB filesystem before pulling the Flash drive out of the slot.

== Handset-specific notes ==

Touchscreen works great in the as-installed image. WiFi does not. A symptom of the problem is that both the ath9k (correct) and ath3K (wrong) kernel modules are autoloaded at boot time. Edit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf and add "blacklist ath3k" and then reboot. Unfortunately, WiFi still doesn't come up even though "lsmod" shows the same drivers as on netbook image, whose WiFi works great. "dmesg" says "ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready.

Before WiFi is working the easiest ways to get files onto the handset images are either from a mounted USB stick filesystem or by mounting the MeeGo netbook filesystem read-only and copying. In order to accomplish the latter, type "fdisk -l" to list the existing partitions. Create the directory where the netbook filesystem will be mounted, e.g. "mkdir -p /netbook". Then, assuming your netbook partition is /dev/sdaX and the filesystem type is ext3, enter "mount -t ext3 -o ro /dev/sdaX /netbook". Then "ls /netbook" will display the files on the netbook partition.

== Netbook-specific notes ==

WiFi works great with the as-installed netbook image.

As installed, the netbook image [http://bugs.meego.com/show_bug.cgi?id=9524 does not have a working touchscreen]. The system responds to a screen touch by darkening slightly and moving the cursor to the upper-lefthand corner. The needed driver, hid_egalax, is not autoloaded. Manually loading the driver with "modprobe -i hid_egalax" makes the touchscreen fully functional about half the time. Other times the behavior seems to be unaffected by the driver load.

=== Netbook trunk (1.2) ===

Some notes about installing a more recent MeeGo netbook image (I used meego-netbook-ia32-1.2.80.0.20110503.2.img) on ExoPC hardware:

# Installation needs an external keyboard, but went smoothly. However, on first boot (where you have to enter default user/password etc.), the external keyboard seemed to cause some power issue (even with the tablet plugged into its adapter), where X respawns too quickly.
#: To work around this, I followed [http://forum.meego.com/showthread.php?t=447 these instructions], summarised here:
## Plug in USB keyboard.
## Boot and start bashing the space key on the external keyboard (to interrupt grub).
## In the grub menu, press Tab so you can edit the kernel boot options.
## Append ' s' (space then 's', no quotation marks). This will mean you can boot into single user mode before X starts (and the keyboard causes X to continually respawn).
## Once you have a console available, run <code>startx</code> to get a minimal X environment.
## In the terminal window, run <code>/usr/bin/firstboot</code>. This starts the normal firstboot environment with the keyboard plugged in. Fill in the necessary.
## Once you're done with firstboot, back in the terminal, use the <code>halt</code> command to shut down.
## You should now be able to boot the tablet with the keyboard plugged in.
# Once you've booted successfully, you'll probably need to use the Terminal application to do stuff.
# With more recent images, hid_egalax does appear to be autoloaded (see the previous section). However, the pointer behaviour is still a little skittish. I found that installing evtouch stabilised it a bit:
#: <code>zypper in xorg-x11-drv-evtouch</code>
# To hide the pointer, edit /etc/sysconfig/uxlaunch and add a line like this to the end of the file:
#: <code>xopts=-nocursor</code>
#: But, once the pointer is gone, it is tricky to put the pointer to the top of the screen to see the toolbar (with links to MyZone etc.). However, if you've got an external keyboard plugged in, you can press the Windows key on the external keyboard to get there.
# This one is for those of you interested in running HTML5/JS web apps on netbook: The version of Chromium installed by default on the netbook image is quite old, and behaves pretty poorly for frameworks like [http://www.sencha.com/products/touch/ Sencha Touch]. You can instead install a developer build of Chrome, which works much better.
#:# Install lsb:
#:#: <code>sudo zypper in lsb</code>
#:# Download a developer build of Chrome (to replace Chromium) from
#:#: http://www.google.com/chrome/intl/en/eula_dev.html?dl=unstable_i386_rpm
#:# Install the RPM:
#:#: <code>sudo rpm -i google-chrome-unstable_current_i386.rpm</code>
#:# Run it:
#:#: <pre>google-chrome</pre>
#:#: NB on first run, it asks you to select a search engine; I chose Yahoo!, as selecting Google didn't work (ironically).
# On the other hand, if you're happy with the version of Chromium on the netbook image, and just want to be able to use it with touch, the [https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ncegfehgjifmmpnjaihnjpbpddjjebme chromeTouch extension] works pretty well. However, this mucks up touch tracking in Sencha Touch.
# I had pretty much zero luck getting a decent virtual keyboard to work. I tried matchbox-keyboard, the meegotouch keyboard ([http://wiki.meego.com/Maliit Maliit]), and fvkbd. matchbox-keyboard and fvkbd at least appeared onscreen; I had no luck with the meegotouch keyboard at all.
#: I ended up keeping fvkbd with the following small edits:
#:* I changed its .desktop file (/usr/share/applications/fvkbd.desktop) to run the keyboard docked to the bottom of the screen, by changing the Exec line to:
#:*: <code>Exec=fvkbd-gtk -d -l keyboard-s.xml</code>
#:*: (note the extra -d to dock to the bottom of the screen)
#:* I also edited the keyboard-s.xml file (/usr/share/fvkbd/keyboard-s.xml) and set the width to 1366 and height to 330 (attributes on the outermost XML element). This makes the keyboard properly span the screen without being truncated (though I didn't work out how to centre the keys on the background)
#: To use the keyboard, start the fvkbd application first (from the Applications zone), then the application you want to use. The keyboard then sits on top of the application. This can be useful for emergencies, but it's not really adequate for full, everyday use.
# For some reason I couldn't discover, the screen dims when the power lead is unplugged. I was unable to figure out how to prevent this from happening (I tried looking through the BIOS, using xset, looking at upower, tried to turn off acpi etc. to no avail). However, there is a utility for setting the backlight brightness called <code>xbacklight</code> which at least helps you reset the screen brightness (the netbook image has no software control for this, and the tablet has no hardware keys for it).
#: Install it with:
#: <code>sudo zypper in xbacklight</code>
#: Then, to set the backlight brightness to 100%, do:
#: <code>xbacklight -set 100</code>
#: (Obviously, this is less than ideal. If anyone knows how to permanently prevent the screen from dimming when the power is unplugged, please let me know.)
# The ExoPC has a light sensor (tiny rectangle next to the power LEDs in the top left). When it's on, a reduction in the ambient light causes the screen to dim. This can be quite annoying in a British spring as bright sunlight rapidly alternates with storm clouds.
#: You can turn off the light sensor temporarily with:
#: <code>sudo echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/asus_laptop/ls_switch</code>
#: However, you have to do this manually on each boot. There's probably some way to switch it off permanently, but no one on the internet has written it down. So the easiest thing for me to do was write a script in <code>/etc/init.d/ls_switch</code> to run on each boot (see below).
#: Make sure you <code>sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/ls_switch</code> too.
#: With this script in place, set it to run on each boot with:
#: <code>chkconfig --add ls_switch</code>
#: When you reboot, the light sensor should be off.

== Hardware Fixes ==

Please add steps here how to get hardware features working on MeeGo Tablet UX that don't work out of the box:

=== HDMI Output ===

This can be enabled by copying the following two files from a WeTab OS installation ([http://www.wetab-community.com/index.php?/topic/12074-hdmi-ausgang/ source link]):

<pre>
/usr/bin/tiitoo-hdmi-daemon
/lib/firmware/chrontel/fw7036.bin
</pre>

After you have copied the files, you need to load two kernel modules and start the HDMI Daemon:

<pre>
sudo modprobe i2c-i801
sudo modprobe i2c-dev
sudo tiitoo-hdmi-daemon
</pre>

=== Accelerometer ===

The fix to [http://bugs.meego.com/10886 bug 10886] was to remove the MeeGo Sensors module in the kickstart file of the Tablet Image. This, however, causes the sensor to not be accessible to Qt Mobility ([http://bugs.meego.com/17461 bug 17461]). The workaround as described in [http://bugs.meego.com/17461 bug 17461] is as follows:

* Download the RPM: [http://download.meego.com/snapshots/1.2.0.90.1.20110525.2/repos/oss/ia32/packages/i586/libqtsensors1-1.2.0~beta0+git2726-10.11.i586.rpm libqtsensors1-1.2.0~beta0+git2726-10.11.i586.rpm]
* Extract it: <code>rpm2cpio libqtsensors1-1.2.0~beta0+git2726-10.11.i586.rpm | cpio -idv</code>
* Copy the module (as root): <code>cp usr/lib/qt4/plugins/sensors/libqtsensors_meego.so /usr/lib/qt4/plugins/sensors/</code>

To test, you can install the '''qt-mobility-examples''' package (using <code>zypper install qt-mobility-examples</code>) and run one of the examples:

$ /usr/lib/qtmobility/examples/accel
loaded the Generic plugin
loaded the grue plugin
Loaded the MeeGo sensor plugin
New sensor "accelerometersensor" interface created with session id 10 ...
acceleration: "0.12 0.27 2.35"
acceleration: "0.12 0.29 2.39"
acceleration: "0.10 0.29 2.39"
acceleration: "0.11 0.30 2.33"

=== Display brightness ===

If for some reason the display backlight becomes too dark, you can use the following command as root to set the brightness:

echo 15 >/sys/devices/virtual/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness

The value 15 has been obtained from the file <code>/sys/devices/virtual/backlight/acpi_video0/max_brightness</code>.

== How to install latest MeeGo Snapshot ==
* Download img from http://download.meego.com/snapshots/latest/images/meego-tablet-ia32-pinetrail/
* Write to your usb stick with '''dd in=meego.img of=/dev/sdb bs=4M'''
* Put usb stick in tablet and boot up, press bs, select usb stick, now you need a usb keyboard to select install only option
** You can go through the bootloader using the button in the top left corner of the screen, short press to move to the next entry, long press to boot it. USB keyboard is optional.

== Mobile World Congress 2011 / MeeGo Summit.fi Machines : Update Repos ==

These machines were pre-installed with MeeGo 1.1 using a trunk-daily build of 1.1.90.2.20110209.4 (see /etc/zypp/repos/core.repo on the device); this is no longer available.

In the absence of a more stable repo an alternative is to track the latest package set by setting
baseurl=http://download.meego.com/trunk-daily/builds/trunk/latest/repos/oss/ia32/packages/
in the core.repo file.

Then:
zypper ref

(If anyone is brave enough to run ''zypper up'' and potentially need to reinstall then please say how this works.)

I tried that against the latest weekly repo at that time (http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/builds/1.1.90/1.1.99.2.20110412.6/repos/oss/ia32/packages/) and first it hung on updating libc. After a reboot it ran through, but after one more reboot the Tablet UX didn't come back up anymore. Didn't investigate it further. I'll most likely use these instructions: http://meego.com/downloads/releases/1.2/meego-tablet-developer-preview and the image for aforementioned weekly.

--[[User:Dm8tbr|Dm8tbr]] 04:30, 18 April 2011 (UTC)

== Connecting Qt Creator to the Device ==
Go to Tools->Options; then Projects section, MeeGo Device Configurations tab.

Note that the meego user seems to need sudo rights to be able to run the remote execution:
cat <<EOF > /etc/sudoers.d/su-meego
meego ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
EOF
chmod 440 /etc/sudoers.d/su-meego

sed -i -e's/##includedir/#includedir/' /etc/sudoers

Also, for some reason, /usr/local and /usr/local/bin end up as root:root, mode 770. Fix this with:
sudo chmod 755 /usr/local
sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/bin
This looks like it's due to Qt Creator packaging

== Old Installation Notes ==

'''Warning:''' both the handset and netbook images running on the ExoPC have some problems as
of 1/30/2011. See below.
'''Warning:''' as with any other device, if you incorrectly reflash the bootloader and/or kernel, you may '''brick''' your system.

Sometimes the unit won't boot when a USB mouse is plugged in. An external keyboard doesn't cause the same problems. A mouse can be attached as soon as the MeeGo splashscreen appears. This might be a power problem that would be resolved by a USB hub with an external supply.

Installing the Handset image before the Netbook saves a bit of trouble if both are desired.

The version of parted that is invoked by the MeeGo installers [http://bugs.meego.com/show_bug.cgi?id=12945 will not resize an NTFS partition], so if you want to preserve Windows, use another partitioning tool before booting the MeeGo USB stick. [http://www.sysresccd.org/Main_Page systemrescuecd] worked fine.

The installation described here shrank the Windows partition to the (recommended minimum) 20 GB, then created an extended (logical) partition in the remaining space with a 2 GB swap partition and two primary (Is this right?) partitions of equal size in the remaining space.

Windows may come up and say that the partition table has been corrupted and that it will repair it ;-). The result is that the boot flag is set for the Win System partition, which prevents the extlinux bootloader from starting. To fix the problem, boot once more from the handy systemrescuecd stick and clear the duplicate boot flag from the System partition. Presto: your MeeGo install is again accessible.

== Installation ==

[[File:systemrescuecd_gparted_ExoPC.jpg|750px|frameless|Result of successful partitioning for triple-boot. Booting Windows may cause it to set the "boot" flag on its System partition as shown here and prevent extlinux from loading. Boot again with the systemrescuecd stick to clear the duplicate flag.]]

The ExoPC has an unlocked bootloader, so installation is relatively simple. First [http://meego.com/devices/netbook/installing-meego-your-netbook prepare a USB stick] with the image of your choice. After holding the power button for 4 seconds to start the boot process, touch the "Setup" soft button in the upper-righthand corner of the screen and disable "Quiet Boot." Boot again and touch the "BBS" soft button to manually select your USB drive as the boot device.

The netbook image does not create a useful /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf file. One way of solving the problem is to install the handset image first, mount the handset image from the netbook image and just copy over the extlinux.conf file. Copy the entry for the handset image over to the end of the extlinux.conf file and change the details in order to create a file that works for all the images, then copy back to the handset image.

Don't forget to run "zypper update" from a terminal window as soon as your image is installed.

Warning: always unmount the USB filesystem before pulling the Flash drive out of the slot.

== Handset-specific notes ==

Touchscreen works great in the as-installed image. WiFi does not. A symptom of the problem is that both the ath9k (correct) and ath3K (wrong) kernel modules are autoloaded at boot time. Edit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf and add "blacklist ath3k" and then reboot. Unfortunately, WiFi still doesn't come up even though "lsmod" shows the same drivers as on netbook image, whose WiFi works great. "dmesg" says "ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready.

Before WiFi is working the easiest ways to get files onto the handset images are either from a mounted USB stick filesystem or by mounting the MeeGo netbook filesystem read-only and copying. In order to accomplish the latter, type "fdisk -l" to list the existing partitions. Create the directory where the netbook filesystem will be mounted, e.g. "mkdir -p /netbook". Then, assuming your netbook partition is /dev/sdaX and the filesystem type is ext3, enter "mount -t ext3 -o ro /dev/sdaX /netbook". Then "ls /netbook" will display the files on the netbook partition.

== Netbook-specific notes ==

WiFi works great with the as-installed netbook image.

As installed, the netbook image [http://bugs.meego.com/show_bug.cgi?id=9524 does not have a working touchscreen]. The system responds to a screen touch by darkening slightly and moving the cursor to the upper-lefthand corner. The needed driver, hid_egalax, is not autoloaded. Manually loading the driver with "modprobe -i hid_egalax" makes the touchscreen fully functional about half the time. Other times the behavior seems to be unaffected by the driver load.

=== Netbook trunk (1.2) ===

Some notes about installing a more recent MeeGo netbook image (I used meego-netbook-ia32-1.2.80.0.20110503.2.img) on ExoPC hardware:

# Installation needs an external keyboard, but went smoothly. However, on first boot (where you have to enter default user/password etc.), the external keyboard seemed to cause some power issue (even with the tablet plugged into its adapter), where X respawns too quickly.

Thp: /* Reporting bugs against N900 DE */

= MeeGo 1.2 Developer Edition for Nokia N900=

'''What's hot:'''
Test the '''MeeGoConf/SF release''' of the MeeGo 1.2 Developer Edition for N900: [http://repository.maemo.org/meego/n900-de/daily/1.1.99.7.20110516.2.DE.2011-05-23.1/images/mg-handset-armv7nhl-n900-de-sanity/ download] - [[#Installing_and_running|install]] - [[ARM/N900/CoolStuff|cool stuff]]

== Introduction ==
The target of this activity is to make a Developer Edition of MeeGo for the Nokia N900 device. This Developer Edition is an 'overlay' constructed above the current core MeeGo 1.2. The DE project is working as a draft of a MeeGo handset image, to make possible the MeeGo development on your N900 hardware. Being a draft it will not take into account all features commonly present in a handset OS. To see what features will be implemented look [[#Key_features]]. Flashed with this edition N900 will be usable as a primary phone device for a developer/hacker person. '''This is not meant for regular (Maemo 5) users. Using this release will probably void any warranty and there is no (other than community-based) support available.'''

=== Target ===
The focus is on meeting the non-functional targets (such as performance) rather than number of features. This will hopefully encourage more people to use MeeGo on N900, and continue enhancing the functionality or build new stuff. Developer Edition is based on MeeGo 1.2 handset trunk content, and selected community contributions ([[ARM/N900/CoolStuff|see the candidates]]). Core MeeGo 1.2 Handset features can be found in [https://bugs.meego.com/report.cgi?x_axis_field=product&y_axis_field=component&z_axis_field=&query_format=report-table&short_desc_type=allwordssubstr&short_desc=&classification=MeeGo+Features&product=MeeGo+Core+OS+Features&product=MeeGo+Handset+Features&version=1.0&version=1.1&version=1.2&version=1.0&version=1.1&version=1.2&longdesc_type=allwordssubstr&longdesc=&bug_file_loc_type=allwordssubstr&bug_file_loc=&status_whiteboard_type=allwordssubstr&status_whiteboard=&keywords_type=allwords&keywords=&deadlinefrom=&deadlineto=&bug_status=ACCEPTED&bug_status=RESOLVED&bug_status=RELEASED&bug_status=VERIFIED&bug_status=CLOSED&emailassigned_to1=1&emailtype1=substring&email1=&emailassigned_to2=1&emailreporter2=1&emailqa_contact2=1&emailcc2=1&emailtype2=substring&email2=&bug_id_type=anyexact&bug_id=&votes=&chfieldfrom=&chfieldto=Now&chfieldvalue=&format=table&action=wrap&field0-0-0=noop&type0-0-0=noop&value0-0-0= featurezilla], and features of DE not yet implemented from [[ARM/N900/Configuration|Configuration list.]]

== FAQ ==

Q. Let's assume my bug fix was accepted only in the DE, but rejected in the official 1.2. What do we do with the bug? 
A. Submit the fix to 1.3. Change the status to "RESOLVED". Comment that the fix is available in DE & 1.3.

Q. Which SD card should I be using? 
A. Class 6 and higher. The class has the impact on the performance.

Q. Where can I download the N900 DE release? 
A. See [[N900#Install|installation instructions]]

Q. What is the UI of DE going to be? 
A. Based on what's available on MeeGo trunk. At the moment we work with the MeeGo 1.1-originated Handset UX and apps. We are evaluating the new tablet-originated UX and apps (see [[ARM/N900/TabletUX]]). This is still to be decided, and there might be even multiple options for the user to select.

== Ideas, feedback etc. ==

Please add stuff to the [[ARM/N900/Ideas|Ideas]] page.

== Reporting bugs against N900 DE ==

Currently there is no special Bugzilla product/component for the N900 Developer Edition ([http://twitter.com/jukkaeklund/status/74396393195839488 it's "the same MeeGo"]). According to [http://twitter.com/jukkaeklund/status/74396845920632832 this post] by Jukka, you should:

* File a bug report on [http://bugs.meego.com/ bugs.meego.com]
* Use '''[DE]''' in the summary
* Add the '''N900''' keyword to the bug report
