N900-DE
 
-
== Backup/Restore application is needed. ==
+
data management contents moved to:

http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/DataManagement
-
Now we can get on networks and get past initialisation issues, a mechanism to Backup/Restore data between reflashing is necessary.
+
-
Added complexity for N900-de is that the whole "image" is on one partition which is overwritten by each image flashed.
+
-
* Possibilities
+
-
** Use eMMC from maemo to store MeeGo N900-DE backup data files
+
-
** Change the N900-DE image so that MicroSD is partitioned into Code (regular flash) and Data (similar to eMMC)
+
-
** make a compatible data Backup/Restore application and store alongside Maemo backup files (very hard)
+
-
 
+
-
== Maemo Data Import is needed. ==
+
-
 
+
-
Similar to the Backup/Restore application.
+
-
 
+
-
* Mechanism to Import some or all of the Maemo data:
+
-
** Import Contacts
+
-
** Import network settings
+
-
** Import SMS messages/Conversations
+
-
** Import
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
== SSU is needed. ==
+
-
 
+
-
Now that we are doing more and filling in data, a mechanism to update is required.
+
-
 
+
-
* Start with a daily/weekly image
+
-
** Open Application "System-Update"
+
-
** Check for updates, compare on device repository against latest available system
+
-
 
+
-
== Maemo Data Sharing is wanted. ==
+
-
 
+
-
To access realtime and safely the data stored on the eMMC live and direct.
+
-
 
+
-
* To allow sharing the data from Maemo side.
+
-
** Photographs and videos taken with the device camera
+
-
** Music and example files.

== Old Notes ==
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
initial notes made regarding meego netbook edition run through on lenovo.
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
browser tabs using touch screen
+
-
too easy to do "something" a click or a drag and have it pop into a new window, annoying.
+
-
 
+
-
left and right click buttons on the trackpad are not reactive
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
clicking battery on the top bar does not show the percentage
+
-
i have to click the clock then slide onto the battery
+
-
additionally, there is no visual representation of either hours left estimate, <s>or actual charging/draining status.  I wanted to check if it was charging .</s>
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
unable to add applications to the favorite applications list using screen only.
+
-
the pin indicator appears only when the application tile is selected.
+
-
when it is deselected the pin is not visible.
+
-
to add to favorites you must click on the pin.
+
-
misclicking (because you have to guess) and
+
-
just clicking on the tile itself causes the application to start.
+
-
it causes frustration and murmers each time you do it.
+
-
the guesswork in choosing location is also increased because the border of the tile is hidden
+
-
and the boundary is therefore not known.
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
using superkey to bring up the top bar means it does not go away if you dont want any of the options, clicking the application area does not close it.
+
-
 
+
-
cannot use top bar in tablet mode
+
-
needs some kind of task switcher button ala maemo
+
-
it uses an autohide toolbar which is nearly impossible to bring it up
+
-
 
+
-
task switching
+
-
the pan out, slide across, pan in effect is disorienting and distracting
+
-
(this is using ctrl+alt+left or right)
+
-
 
+
-
it is especially bad for new windows in an application etc
+
-
(I have open this editor,
+
-
they would normally be services by just opening (wherever it ends up in the overall dashboard)
+
-
or they would zoom into screen, or slide up/down/left etc
+
-
the pan out,. see other applications fly past, pan in is VERY VERY distracting on the brain
+
-
it subliminally makes the reason for the new window go away by making you notice (even a glance) of the other machine content.
+
-
the method needs tweaking to feel less robotic and more transforming
+
-
should allow plugin variations on this so that designers could come up with fancy new methods
+
-
"well take the two windows, "current" and "new", from the right hand side, twist them like ribbons and weave them together until "new" occupies the whole area"  or something ;)
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
topbar at the top is a problem for using in laptop mode
+
-
it should really be at the bottom of the screen
+
-
this would allow the bar to be an extension to the real keyboard
+
-
and be usable without gorilla arm
+
-
this is just a desire/config option, at the top is fashionable on some computers
+
-
on others the bottom is the norm
+
-
 
+
-
clicking browser favorites brings back the browser, but it also includes all old tabs too
+
-
if i had closed the browser i really expected all of the tabs to close as well
+
-
this is disconcerting and not normal
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
no clock on screen at all times which has been with us forever+1
+
-
normally exists on the task bar
+
-
the titlebar is very bare and could easily have capability
+
-
the maemo preferences area is groundbreaking in its style and format and would sit nicely at the right of the titlebar
+
-
(using gedit as example
+
-
"bugs noticed so far (~) - gedit                        [12:45 A|B|C|D] [X]"
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
edit carat color is lime green and not easily readable on white screen. 
+
-
for some reason it does not flash.
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
touch screen did not work after bootup seen once only, not reproduced.
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
sliders for screenbrightness and volume require gradbbing nobble instead of using the whole area
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
tearing in fullscreen updates in the picture viewer, waiting for apps using it to confirm
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
browser needs kinetics
+
-
 
+
-
browser scroll bar is not respponsive even if used at right hand edge, almost as if it is 1 pixel from the right
+
-
 
+
-
other scroll bars are hard to use, its the missing kinetics thats making it more obvious
+
-
this gedit window shows that.
+
-
 
+
-
browser selection is too visible and easy to obtain - clicking links is difficult, hitzones are very small for finger use
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
evolution preferences - "12 AM"  "12 PM" is being cut off at the start of A/P and shows "12 |"
