Using Keyboard Arrows for games

Posted on 2010-11-13 13:32 UTC by Pang Zi Yang. Status: Waiting, Categories: Games.

Since the n900 is a resistive touchscreen, multitouch can't be supported

Instead of using on screen D-pad, why not the developers program the game so that we can use the Arrow keys on the keyboard and also maybe the buttons for the games itself too.

I have seen it done on the PCSX emulator..

So why not?

It would definitely bring in more game developers such as Gameloft and Glu

openssh built with kerberos

Posted on 2010-12-08 22:55 UTC by Erik Brucken. Status: Waiting, Categories: Internet & Networking.

It would be very much welcome if the openssh-client application could be built with kerberos support. In the repository krb5 is found and installable. Without an kerberos enabled ssh application krb5 is useless if you want to connect from the Maemo device to an outside machine.

 

RDS and PTY interface and player integration

Posted on 2011-01-07 06:16 UTC by nemo nowhere. Status: Under consideration, Categories: Media, User Experience, Devices.

N900 is currently capable of sending "Nokia" as RDS station name. I suggest that we expand this functionality so that it can send all types of RDS fields and PTY codes and make it into a general API.

Secondly we should enable media players to broadcast RDS info from mp3 filename or name tags.

Eventualy some one could use the interface to send sms or caller id while FM transmitter is in use.

 

Add support for name's phonetical transcription (furigana/yomi) in contacts

Posted on 2011-01-17 11:51 UTC by Taro Hirabayashi. Status: Under consideration

The built-in contact manager does not support the fields for the furigana (phonetical transcription) for the names in other non alphabetical languages (expecially Japanese and Chinese). The vCard standard supports these fields and it should be implemented in the built-in conctact manager.

Pirate box

This looks great and I suspect it would be very welcome with N900 users to!  The Pirate Box, what are the chances of getting interest for a port?  http://wiki.daviddarts.com/PirateBox
