== Bugs in testing1 ==

* Hardware keyboard/slider events on N810 when device is in standby only turns on backlight, and doesn't unblank the screen.  Touchscreen events work fine in this respect.
* Touchscreen using xf86-input-tslib does not work (N8x0, SmartQ). Fix will be in testing2 image (redownload image and it should be fixed)
* Brightness applet makes hildon crash (not always) http://pastebin.ca/1418638
* Freezing at shutdown if the command is given from the new gui
* Enhancement: jffs2 images, kernels, etc. 
** Potential fix: Edit kernel-diablo in Maemo:Mer:Devel:HW:N8x0:Devel to include a variant (like -oprofile or such) that is built to sed CONFIG_CMDLINE from 'CONFIG_CMDLINE="root=1f03 rootfstype=jffs2 ro console=tty0 console=ttyMTD5" to:'CONFIG_CMDLINE="root=1f04 rootfstype=jffs2 init=/sbin/tablet-init ro console=tty0 console=ttyMTD5"'
*** Added in kernel-diablo
* Minor issues:
** [0.12, not verified to be in 0.13testing1] /etc/init.d/powered produces a message similar to ‘[: 105: false: invalid operator’.  The fix is to change ‘==’ to ‘=’ in all lines of the form ‘[ "$FOO" == "true" ]’.  (Just search for ‘==’ in all init.d scripts.)
*** Fixed in powerlaunch 0.9.2mer8
** [0.12, not verified to be in 0.13testing1] Near the top of /usr/sbin/set_dim_and_blank.py is ‘if dim > blank: print "Dim must be >= blank"’; the message should say ‘<=’ rather than ‘>=’. 
*** Fixed in dsme-tools 0.8

====x86 VMDK====
* Text in text fields can not be drag-selected (cursor jumps to start of field instead)
* Applications installed prompt for folder location but are always stored in Extras
** Artifact of Fremantle Application Manager i think
*** (Irrelevant.  It's a bug)
* Organize dialog nonresponsive to any input
* Locale hardcoded to en_GB.utf8 (?) 
** There is a .current-locale feature, needs control panel (+ reboot), look in /usr/bin/start-hildon
*** the file is ~/.osso/current-locale and it doesn't work.
* Terminal menu text is not replaced with localized text - e.g. "webameedit - webamecopy" etc.
* Terminal toolbar Ctrl button non-functional (try Ctrl + d, Ctrl + h, Ctrl + g, Ctrl + c)
** Work on including patches in libvte on garage.maemo.org/projects/osso-xterm into vte - there's some not included yet.
* Terminal toolbar (likely other) has significanly misaligned background image when selected.
** Icon sizes are changed in Fremantle, so a theme issue probably
*** no.  There are no icons on the toolbar.  Screenshot: [http://www.quicksnapper.com/JMarkevich/image/toolbar-bug Toolbar Bug] (this has been a persistent bug in Maemo, though mostly for all python programs, evidently)
