gpe-iconlist

Hi,

I uploaded a few changes to gpe-iconlist to allow use by gpe-sketchbook.

(set_show_title): New public function to allow titleless iconlist
(set_bg_color): New public function to set the bg color
(update_icon_item_with_udata): New public function to update an icon
(remove_item_with_udata): New public function to remove an icon

With show_title = FALSE, the size should be reduced (at least minus
"label_height") but I did not fully sorted out the size management yet.
(help welcome! :)

Actualy I experienced a "funny" effect with sizes:
When clicking a button (not even the iconlist) the iconlist's size is
recalculated... and grow up! The increment is 23, which is...
15 + 8 ! :)
LABEL_XMARGIN is 8, and there are a few 15 in the code...
it could be related.

The hand made patch below fixes the thing:

in _recalc_size(),
  gtk_drawing_area_size (
  GTK_DRAWING_AREA(gtk_object_get_data (GTK_OBJECT(self), "da")),
- allocation->width, self->_priv->rows * il_row_height (self) + 5);
+ allocation->width -23, self->_priv->rows * il_row_height (self) + 5);

Also, I think the border should be a parameter. The current default is
quite large (sketchbook only displays 2 icons in a row (64 pixels))

Re: gpe-iconlist

Some more sugestions,

Icons could be selectable, with a different visual aspect (darker?)
and react to double-click.

problems with bootgpe2-v0.7-pre4-h3100.jffs2

I like GPE on my iPAQ 3100, and I use currently bootgpe 0.6.1 and it is ok, but I want to try the new bootgpe2-v0.7-pre4-h3100.jffs2.
I find a problem, when I transfer the image with ymoden:
	ymoden sectors/kbytes sent: 81511/10188k retry 0: Got 50 for sector ACK.
What it's this?
I have to select other image? (bootgpe-v061-01-h3100.jffs2 0.6.1=9,5 Mb -
bootgpe2-v0.7-pre4-h3100.jffs2=12,5 Mb)
I think that the 0.7 image is too big for the 16 mb rom.
How I can try to resolve this problem?
Please, help me.
Thanks in advance.

I've experienced a kind of related problem with gpe-bluetooth.  If I run
that on my desktop, even if I don't click any buttons at all, the
iconlist grows sideways out to infinity.  I think the problem there is
that it takes the size allocation for the whole window, and tries to set
the drawing area width to the same value without taking account of the
borders.  Maybe the same thing is happening to you.

I'd kind of like to see the individual items in the iconlist be GObjects
in their own right; the overall list widget would then be a container,
and you could attach handlers for whatever button events you wanted on
an item-by-item basis, cf GtkMenuItem/GtkMenu.

In terms of appearance, it'd also be handy to have a way to make the
icons look "insensitive".

GPE list via News

Hi all,

we now have (bi-directional) access to this list as a newsgroup.
See http://gpe.handhelds.org/contact.shtml. In short, it's
news://gmane.comp.handhelds.gpe

I will let them import the archive there too once Nils gives his
okay.

Cheers,
  Colin

I just played around with the kernel, making images and so on.
Looks quite promising.
After some fiddeling I got the kernel to compile and eat a JFFS2 as
initial filesystem instead of cramfs. This opens several doors :) But
the kernel is anything from stable or complete. Many functions are
either only half implemented or instable. For example the audio driver
fails after resume. Worse of all is that the PCMCIA support is ...
broken. I got exactly one CF flash card to be accepted. Anything else
was rejected due to very strange reasons. The framebuffer and
touchscreen code has to be reviewed too.

But anyway, it is a really good start!
You can run a kernel and reflash it natively.
This more than on could expect!

I would like to extract the SIMpad specific parts of the kernel and try
to merge with 2.4.19-rmk*-hh* head... I think this should help resolving
lots of problems.

I just got mine on Saturday. It's still running WinCE, as the
instructions on the sf page did not allow me to quickly flash it with
linux.

But I'm definitely interesting in getting the SimPAD to work with
Linux/GPE.
