I have stopped development on Meego/Maemo, so these pages are getting quickly dated. Ciao!

* Usually I dot my laptop with READMEs in various ~/devel/ subdirs, but in this case I decided to write up some notes here. These are mostly for my own reference, but perhaps they will be of use to you.

* Feel free to take any of these pages and copy them over to the main wiki namespace (here or in any other wiki, for that matter).

=Bugs=

==Bugs to file==
===Broken===

* [http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=38342&goto=newpost no makedev]

* Alarms not getting backed up with settings.

* Per FSH:
 ln -s /etc/opt /opt/etc

* After reflash, extra apps are still in /opt, but are "missing" since the symlinks from /usr/bin are gone.
** More steps needed - which exact apps, did you restore from Backup? --andre

* Saving preferences in xchat crashes.
** I can confirm this, but I don't know if the Maemo port of xchat  has a separate bugtracker in garage.maemo.org  --andre

* "Clear private data on exit" in Midori doesn't actually clear ~/.cache/midori/web (!). I spoke to packager ([http://maemo.org/profile/view/kalikiana/ kalikiana]) on IRC and he said he would look into it.
 `rm  -rf ~/.cache/midori ; rm -rf ~/.config/midori`       Start midori.  Go to some website.  Click "Tools".  Click "Clear Private Data".    Check "Clear private data when quitting Midori"  (but DON'T click "Clear private data" button).   Tap blurry part at top to close private data window.   Exit Midori.   `ls -R ~/.cache/midori/web`  and see the .pngs or whatever.

* `less`, `vim` etc. don't see to like $TERM=rxvt-unicode. Using $TERM=xterm-color works fine. Probably not worth filing a bug...
** vi is available via default, but not vim. Feel free to file a bug report with exact steps. --andre

* lcuk: package liqcontrolpanel's summary is "short description". Package should be removed entirely.

* Image viewer: 1) rotate image 2) view thumbnail. Image doesn't get rotated in thumbnail in *some* cases.

* Maps viewer (OVI): The program is running ok in Spanish, but map data is in English (e.g. "South Pacific Ocean" "South America"). I first ran the program in English, but have subsequently set the system to Spanish.

===RFEs===
* Alarm clock should show ''current'' time, not time alarm was set for, or when you hit snooze, you can't see current time (and think it is alarm time!).

* Package manager can only install one package at a time (in contrast to how synaptic does it, for example).
** https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=601 . Feel free to vote. --andre

* In package manager you have to keep scrolling down to the package you want. You can't just hit "r" for example and have it scroll to "r" in the list of packages. This is actually pervasive throughout Maemo 5. It seems to only really do this in Contacts app.
** https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5388 . Feel free to vote. --andre

* It totally sucks that if someone steals your phone, they pretty much own you. At least /home/user/MyDocs should be encrypted. Ideally this would be done with LUKS and decrypt at boot with a password. Perhaps [https://launchpad.net/ecryptfs encryptfs]
** https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6030 is related for Mail storage - feel free to file a new enhancement request --andre

* In Contacts app, it always shows a SMS button for phone numbers, even if they are landlines.
** https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6375 - probably WONTFIX for convenience reasons --andre

* Need a #maemo-devel channel too, as #maemo is noisy...

* xchat is totally not tweaked for maemo, such as scrolling...

* mplayer should use pulsebarfaudio by default, not alsa:
 echo "ao = pulse" > ~/.mplayer/config

* Media Player doesn't thumbnail videos after they are taken with the N900 camera/video app. It didn't after closing and re-opening app, but I see they are now thumbnailed (post flashing). Anyway, it should do them "immediately".

* Lots of internationalization packages are taking up space needlessly. But if, for example, Swedish Calendar support is removed, it wants to remove the whole calendar. The i10n packages should be removable without removing the whole app.

* OGG support out-of-the-box. I mean, c'mon now...
** Political reasons - see https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=176 --andre

* App Manager should include $LICENSE in Description.
** Worth an enhancement request, explaining why you want this --andre

* qik.com doesn't work with gnash (I mailed them and they mailed back saying, uh, ya, sorry).

* Continual autofocus on camera (apparently hardware limitation??)
** Sounds like https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5688 ? Fixed after 42-11 release. --andre
