I finally caved in and bought myself a digital camera, which happens to be a Canon Ixus 55. It’s all nice and shiny but it doesn’t support the USB Mass Storage class, which means I need to use libgphoto2 based tools to interact with it. So…
As Christian points out, the final 1.0 release of the VMware Player went out last week. His blog gives a good description of it, so I won’t repeat all that here. I will, however, point out this, where Zack suggests that anyone wanting to do 770 developement on windows grab the Player and the Browser Appliance VM just install the Maemo SDK inside it
Another day, another update. And today there’s a new release as well.
Today, I contined my porting of GWeather to Maemo. I don’t have a happy bundled package to throw up right now, but I’m happy with today’s progress.
So, I decided that I would take the opportunity presented by the thanksgiving weekend to start work on my port of GWeather to Maemo and the Nokia 770. And I’m pleased to announce that I’ve got something that you can actually run, even if it’s not particuarly usable right now.
So, I was listening to the BBC Go Digital show on the drive home from work just now and they were going on about Podcasting as they are wont to do, and I thought to myself: The 770 is an interesting little device…
Well, I think it’s time for me to join in the fun. My 770 showed up on monday, despite the complete lack of email from the fullfillment company; but I’ll take underpromise/overdeliver over the alternative any day 🙂
Now, here’s one for the masochistic types out there: As far as I can tell, there is no way to for an application to be installed such that it will startup as part of every user’s session the next time they log in to GNOME. Mark can probably tell me if this is absolutely true or not, but if there’s a way, I can’t find it.
Wherein Phil learns that there really was an easy fix.
Caleb, I’m sure you’re less than enthused about seeing that bug now mentioned a third time by me, but what can you expect? 🙂
