pupnikunique311: you copy a cursor file over another cursor file08:09
unique311i know...08:10
unique311i remember their was a tutorial..08:10
pupnikmaybe googling cursor+synergy or pointer+synergy08:10
unique311i have little surprise for synergy also...08:10
unique311gui'fied..08:10
unique311trying to hildon a bit..08:11
unique311not alot of src files..08:11
unique311but it looks good right now.08:11
unique311want a pre?08:11
pupnikno i am dealing with other things08:12
unique311cool08:12
pupnikanother idea if you're working on synergy.  one could enable the cursor only when synergy is running08:12
pupnikby copying or linking in the standard x pointer when it starts up, and changing it back when synergy gets killed08:13
unique311that might be possible with the gui..08:13

mbufhi, installed scratchbox .debs on Debian Etch manually, /usr/bin/scratchbox cannot be run as user as it says Permission denied; it is owned by root15:50

zuhmbuf: Is it owned by the group sbox and have you added the user to scratchbox with /scratchbox/sbin/sbox_adduser?15:58
mbufzuh that step i haven't done yet15:59
mbufzuh, it is confusing with two isntall guides15:59
mbuf*install15:59
*** tank17 has quit IRC15:59
*** Pierre has quit IRC15:59
mbufzuh, i did sb-adduser shaks, is it the same thing?16:00
*** Pierre has joined #maemo16:01
zuhpossibly... That's probably just a wrapper for the one I pointed out. Like the /usr/bin/scratchbox is a wrapper for /scratchbox/login.16:01
mbufzuh, i tried it as root, #/scratchbox/sbin/sbox_adduser user, it says, user account already exists16:02
zuhMaybe you didn't add the user to the sbox group?16:02
*** segura has joined #maemo16:02
zuhThe sbox_adduser does that only optionally, but AFAIK it's needed anyway16:03
mbufzuh, user is part of sbox group16:03
zuhAnd the /usr/bin/scratchbox is owned by that group?16:03
jonnylambIf you've just added your user to sbox group, you need to log out, and back in again.16:04
mbufzuh, no, it is owned by root16:04
keesjHi16:04
mbufjonnylamb, gotcha, had to logout and login, thanks16:05
jonnylambmbuf: No worries. This is no sbox thing btw. If you ever add a user to a group, that user must log back in (if he or she was already logged in) for changes to take place. (at least on Gnu-based OS's).16:07
mbufjonnylamb, i see16:08
Sho_btw: is it legal to edit /home/use/.osso/menus/applications.menu by hand, or will the package manager roll over and die during uninstallation if it doesn't find the entries there? I assume the applications.menu is generated post-install from the .desktop files, but I'd rather not find out the hardware whether I'm wrong ;)16:10
Sho_*the hard way16:10
Sho_(freudian mega-typo ..)16:10
keesjSho_: I don't know what the applications.menu is supposed to do16:11
keesjon the maemo website there is a lot of docs and refs about the .desktop files , I think that they don't need to live in the users' home dir16:12
Sho_keesj: It seems to contain the folder structure of the menu and the application entries, as references to .desktop files16:12
Sho_keesj: Basically I want to move some of the entries around16:12
Sho_(because my "Extras" menu has gotten uncomfortably long)16:12
keesjthe "official" way is to change the symlinks somehwere in /etc16:12
*** sbaturzio has joined #maemo16:13
mbufsb-conf: No such devkit: debian, i have installed scratchbox-devkit-debian_1.0.8_i396.deb already16:14
keesj1.0.8 ? that is pretty recent16:15
keesjand what is i396?16:15
mbufkeesj, that is a type, its 38616:16
mbuf*typo16:16
zuhSho_: The .menu under the home dir is totally legit file to tinker with (provided that you don't break the syntax of course ;), that's what the control panel plugin does16:17
Sho_zuh: There's a control panel plugin to edit the menu?16:18
Sho_That sounds like something I might be interested in ;)16:18
zuhYes, it's titled something like "panels" IIRC. It's the one with the icon that looks like a button.16:20
zuhWhen you open that you'll see a "organize menus" button16:20
zuhWhich opens up a dialog for modifying the menu with drag and drop (and which has invisible rules against directly moving certain items, which makes no sense at all to me...)16:22
*** segura has quit IRC16:23
Sho_zuh: It's a third-party add-on though, right?16:23
zuhNo16:24
zuhIt's included on the device16:24
* Sho_ must be blind16:24
mbufif i am missing this file, /scratchbox/packages/maemo-sdk-rootstrap_3.1_i386.tgz, what did i miss in the steps?16:25
mbufurgh, forgot to copy the files16:26
Sho_zuh: ah, "Navigation" it is, along with "Organize favorites"16:27
zuhUh, it was so cryptic?16:27
unique311anybody in here use synergy with their NIT16:27
zuhAt least in finnish it talks about "panels", but "navigation" makes no sense at all :)16:28
unique311if you do, i found a nice GUI app to make using it less of a hassle....compile with no issues...16:29
Sho_zuh: Much better now -- thanks!16:29

henktlmoura, wait let me show you17:23
pupnikhi Al, no. i start apps through the menu17:24
henkthttp://maemo.org/development/documentation/tutorials/Maemo_tutorial_bora.html#internet17:25
henkt     Testing Limitations          There are limitations for testing the connectivity with the SDK. It is possible to make and run Internet connected application inside Scratchbox with the PC SDK rootstrap, but it is of course not possible to test the WLAN and Bluetooth connections in it without the real hardware.17:25
Al pupnik, there is IDEA prg, but it s too static, you can t move the application inside the desk17:26
lmourahenkt, I think he means: "You can access internet from scratchbox, but you cant play with the connectivity API..."17:26

livingtm_Is it possible to use an IDE on the host, and host it compile in scratchbox? I'd like to use kdevelop, but obviously i need hildon libs that are going to be scratchbox-specific23:18

jonnylambThe GNU/Make manual is actually managable too..23:24

livingtm_to what extent is automake "auto"?23:24

livingtm_jonnylamb, lucky :-)23:25
jonnylambErr those tools are very different..23:25
livingtm_and it was VB too....23:25
jonnylambAutomake compiles the program; dpkg-bp creates a Debian package based on yet more make rules in debian/rules..23:26
livingtm_jonnylamb, I built the maemopad example using the dpkg method, seemed simple enough23:26
