GTK+ on MeeGo

July 4th, 2010

Finally managed to setup a MeeGo/Handset chroot. Made first tests with GTK+ applications. The results so far:

1) Default: mcompositor & mdecorator running. Starting xfce4-about.
=> Black screen (no screen shot ;) )

2) Running with only mdecorator.

Thinkpad t40p replace display (SXGA+ to XGA)

May 29th, 2010

If you ever want to replace the SXGA+ display of your t40p with a XGA display, you also need to get a different display cable. The part numbers (FRU) of those cables are:

SXGA+: 91P6787
XGA: 91P6786

Using the SXGA+ cable with the XGA display will not work. You will get a black screen, the backlight even won’t turn on and the computer shuts itself down after a couple of seconds. But at least you can use the same inverter for both displays.

The good thing is, once you’ve the right cable it works beautiful :)

I’m at the airport in Dresden. Flight is delayed becaus of technical problems. Hopefully I get the connection in Frankfurt.

I still need to prepare my talk and produce some slides, but right now I’m just too tired for that….

One more reason to hate windows

April 28th, 2009

I just spend something like two hours trying to checkout the jSchedule code from my SVN repository without success. I´m at university in front of a WinXP machine.
This was the error message:

svn: Can't open file 'G:\workspace\jSchedule\src\jschedule\main\constraints\.svn\tmp\text-base\Con.java.svn-base'

Well, after some time I found out that for some f***ing reason it is not possible to create files called “con.*” on windows. Too bad, that my class was called “Con.java”….

The explanation is here.

Conboy 0.3.1 Released

April 26th, 2009

Another week is over and here’s another release of your friendly note taking application Conboy. As usual the details are available here.

New features are:

  • Support for the fullscreen button
  • Creating nested bullet lists is now possible
  • Increasing and decreasing the depth of bullets is working
  • Pressing enter at the end of a list item creates a new list item on the same level
  • There are now 3 different bullet characters for different levels
  • When opening a note, it is automatically scrolled to the cursor position
  • It’s now possible to first select a text style and then write using this style
  • Automatic creation of bullet lists if line starts with a dash (-) or asterix (*)
  • Cleaned up the user interface
  • Added text sizes “small”, “normal”, “large” and “huge” to the list of text styles

I hope to have a somewhat feature complete version with 0.5. This is without syncing. Then once that’s done I will consider it 1.0. Hope that’s soon :)
