Nemo Mobile

Nemo Mobile is a Linux distribution for mobile devices. Nemo uses Mer as core and the UX is based on MeeGo Handset UX. Nemo Mobile -project continues the work started at MeeGo Community Edition to create open community driven OS and apps. Currently initial Nemo port exists for Nokia N900 and N950 devices. Work is on-going to support Nokia N9. There is also some support for x86 based tablets/netbooks like ExoPC.

Nemo 11-17.1

• See all bugs in bugzilla

Missing/Broken (not in bugzilla yet)

• N900: Network indicator broken
• N950: Some tearing in scrolling widgetsgallery lists (mostly in portrait)
• ALL: Missing apps: Fennec, Peregrine, Calendar
• ALL: System menu animation slow

Nemo 11-10.1

Missing/Broken

• ia32:Lenovo(other?): mcompositor makes things extremely slow in some situations fixed, TFP support was being incorrectly turned off
• N900: Camera not working (starts up, detects cover open/close correctly) no viewfinder. FIXED: missing dependency to gst-plugins-good.
• N900: Qt.openUrlExternally ( url ) opens lynx
• N900: QML Harmattan Components (com.nokia.meego) Theme images are missing http://pastebin.com/d2pNsd17 fixed in newer darko theme

Nemo 11-03.1

Missing/Broken

• N900: Pin-query in wrong orientation Fixed: Added orientation patch to mer sensorfw.
• N950: zypper unable to install libdeclarative-location-1.2.0-1.2.armv7hl.rpm. Error: Public key is unavailable.
• ALL: Volume keys do not work - Fixed, policy framework was missing.
• N950: Small graphical issues. Sometimes not seeing indicator icons in System UI, just seeing turquoise rectangles instead. Also sometimes in widgetsgallery the menubar is turquoise after orientation change.
• N950: holding a finger down appears to make mce go wild, and take ~17% CPU
• N950: I've seen meegotouch-home go crazy and use ~50% CPU. OTOH, I use lipstick, so not a major problem for me now.
• N950: Trying to update meego-handset-camera with zypper fails: libdeclarative-multimedia-1.2.0-1.2.armv7hl.rpm Public key is unavailable
• N950: Trying to update meego-pinquery with zypper fails: "libdeclarative-sensors-1.2.0-1.2.armv7hl.rpm Public key is unavailable"
• ALL: Camera-app does not start - FIXED: Missing dependency.
• ALL: Camera does not work. App starts but no viewfinder picture. FIXED: old version of gst-nokia-camera.
• N950: Desktop width is wrong (looks like 800pix wide). This is because gconf has N900 as value instead of N950 for /meegotouch/target/name Fixed in .ks will be in next image, see fix from https://gitorious.org/meego-developer-edition-for-n900/image-configurations/blobs/master/custom/scripts/meegotouch-n950.post
• N950: sometimes VKB and HW keyboard broken
• ALL: Pin-query app does not work (does not draw UI, just black screen). This is because QtMobility.sensors is missing. - FIXED: missing dependency.
• ALL: Lots of red icons in home screen (this is missing themes - only base installed. (put at least n900de to the image) - CE and darko themes added. Lets see if that resolves problems.
• ALL: Theme control panel does not show current theme and shows get more from ovistore (missing theme packages) - FIXED: Added more themes, use zypper install meegotouch-theme-ce meegotouch-theme-darko
• ALL: Language applet crashes - Fixed.
• ia32:ExoPC/WeTab boot messages obscure splash screen
• iaa2:ExoPC Toggle Icon view a few times and screen blanks, can get VT2 access. Seen on previous ia32 builds of CE log files below :- I'm wondering if we need to use Pinetrail kernel on Exopc - Tried it same issue - I'll try and get some debug info
