2010-05-16 02:07 Does specs mean, there is no possibility to connect NanoNote to the internet, except via mini-USB port and usual computer? 2010-05-16 02:08 I think, it would be much more useful with addition of at least bluetooth module 2010-05-16 04:19 Necrosporus,  there is a wifi uSD http://en.qi-hardware.com/wiki/Ben_NanoNote_Wi-Fi 2010-05-16 04:23 jlmoko, I have no wifi network nearby, but I own a bluetooth enabled smartphone 2010-05-16 04:23 With damned Symbian... But it doesn't matter if I would use it as modem 2010-05-16 04:44 µSD... 2010-05-16 04:45 But if there is only one slot, you will be unable to use the internet and memory card same time 2010-05-16 04:45 So you will be unable to download something big 2010-05-16 04:48 NanoNote is not a bad thing for its price 2010-05-16 04:48 But why not to make a feature-full copyleft computer with huge amount of memory and so on... 2010-05-16 04:52 Something like ARM/MIPS/SPARC/other non-x86 1-2 GHz processor, 1-2 GiB RAM, 3-5 USB ports, screen >= 1024x768, bluetooth, wi-fi with free firmware awailable (like Ath5k) 2010-05-16 04:52 And at 10 hours battery life 2010-05-16 04:52 * at least 2010-05-16 05:01 Is it screen touchscreen? 2010-05-16 05:02 If not, how to navigate it without mouse? 2010-05-16 05:02 Or is it intended to be used as pocket linux shell device? 2010-05-16 05:08 shell might be the intention 2010-05-16 05:08 its probably low spec so people will actually buy it 2010-05-16 18:02 hello.. 2010-05-16 18:02 just got my ben nanonote 2010-05-16 18:02 hm.. perhaps.. one could tell me which keyboard shortcut I have to use to scroll up in the terminal? 2010-05-16 18:03 hm... 2010-05-16 18:03 shift+page up. but not sure if it's possible to do that combination with the nanonote keyboard 2010-05-16 18:04 well yeah... how to get the page-up keycode? ;) 2010-05-16 18:05 red arrow + volup 2010-05-16 18:05 ah.. thx :D 2010-05-16 18:06 and just one more question... what is the "qi" button supposed to do? 2010-05-16 18:07 it is mapped to ctrl 2010-05-16 18:07 ah..ok 2010-05-16 18:07 thank you, again :) 2010-05-16 18:07 left ctrl 2010-05-16 18:07 and ctrl is right ctrl 2010-05-16 18:07 ah no 2010-05-16 18:08 it's mapped to F13... 2010-05-16 18:08 and FN is left ctrl 2010-05-16 18:08 F13? But that's just useless :D 2010-05-16 18:09 hmm... 2010-05-16 18:10 larsc: where are those mappings written down? ;) 2010-05-16 18:11 MisterMo: http://projects.qi-hardware.com/index.php/p/openwrt-xburst/source/tree/xburst/target/linux/xburst/files-2.6.32/arch/mips/jz4740/board-qi_lb60.c 2010-05-16 18:12 ah thx :) 2010-05-16 18:21 ok... my really last question this evening..... is there already a mapping to move the mouse cursor? 2010-05-16 18:24 MisterMo, in what environment? 2010-05-16 18:25 there are problems with it in gtk+, sdl - depends on the game code, qt - no idea 2010-05-16 18:26 x11 - still no port of it 2010-05-16 18:26 ah hm.. ok 2010-05-16 18:26 in gtk (stardict e.g.) I don't know how to move it.. qt as well 2010-05-16 18:27 kdrive is pretty simple to build, but I wonder if it's worthwhile on such a small screen 2010-05-16 18:27 actually, it was not that simple now that I think of it 2010-05-16 18:27 since it has quite a few dependencies and it is not always clear which are optional 2010-05-16 18:27 mth, maybe with a wm that does not base on windows 2010-05-16 18:28 and virtual screens rather 2010-05-16 18:28 but I did succeed doing it in the past 2010-05-16 18:28 the problem with x11 on 320x240 are window boarders 2010-05-16 18:28 they eat up too much space 2010-05-16 18:29 so i guess every single x11 program would have to be customized to fit in such a small res 2010-05-16 18:29 I guess you'd want some kind of tabbed interface where only one window at a time is visible and maybe a status bar 2010-05-16 18:29 mth, yeah, something like e17 has 2010-05-16 18:29 though the e17 itself should be too slow on the nanonote 2010-05-16 18:30 in the end we decided to use wxWidgets on DirectFB though, instead of wxWidgets on X11 2010-05-16 18:30 ratpoison would probably be a fitting wm ;) 2010-05-16 18:30 since the DirectFB disk footprint was a lot lower 2010-05-16 18:31 mth, there are always alternative window systems 2010-05-16 18:31 like the xynth 2010-05-16 18:31 or opie 2010-05-16 18:31 i'm especially interested in xynth, as it has working sdl and gtk support 2010-05-16 18:32 are there already any projects using the nanonote or projects targetting the nanonote which aren't mentioned in the qi-hardware wiki? 2010-05-16 18:32 something one could look at? searching the web results mostly in some "reviews" not saying much.. :-/ 2010-05-16 18:32 projects as in software, or a way to use the nanonote? 2010-05-16 18:33 both, perhaps ;) 2010-05-16 18:33 well, nanonote is binary compatible with dingoo a320, you can run a lot of games for it on the nanonote 2010-05-16 18:33 including emulators and interpreters, like scummvm 2010-05-16 18:33 hm.. ok 2010-05-16 18:34 here's a collection of dingoo games: http://dl.openhandhelds.org/cgi-bin/dingoo.cgi 2010-05-16 18:34 the only thing you'd probably have to do is to copy the missing libs from the dingux toolchain 2010-05-16 18:34 ah ok.. thanks 2010-05-16 18:44 well thanks for the info 2010-05-16 18:45 bye 2010-05-16 19:12 both kdrive and Xorg are in the qi-hardware package repository 2010-05-16 19:13 isn't kdrive part of Xorg? 2010-05-16 19:17 hehe. yes. it's part of the Xorg project 2010-05-16 19:17 but there is also the Xorg xserver 2010-05-16 19:18 overloading is confusing :) 2010-05-16 19:19 good night 2010-05-16 19:19 nite
