For information mplayer is available on os2008. If i remember it s available on extra-devel repostory. ----- Original message ----- All, ? So far a large part of my problems are sitting around apps that aren't yet ported to 2008.? unzip, radio, mplayer, nmap, omweather are a few that are? in the repository but don't install.? For now there are some things I don't understand.? I'm not trying to step on toes.? I just don't understand. 1.? Why did Nokia decide to change the industry defacto standard term plugin and change it to component?? tools > components shows you the browser plugins.? 2.? Why oh Why did someone take something as useful as xterm and improve to the point of being almost unusable?? I can't file bugs, as it is apparently doing what it is supposed to.? However, what it does really drives me nuts.? Maybe it's just me.? Why did they remove the useful tabs and replace it with multiple windows?? Given that there is no WM in the traditional sense you can't resize and move between them easily.? Tabs afforded the ability to quickly manage multiple term windows (my record on the IT is 10 tabs.) Windows bring this to a grinding halt. Why did they move the "button" bar to the bottom.? Down there is steals valuable screen real-estate from you.? Why is it that they split the adjust background color and font color into two different locations in the settings gui? Why did they increase the steps to use the ctrl key in the button bar?? Before to do cntrl-c it was 2 clicks one on cntrl one on c ... now it's 5.? cntrl - text box - c - ok - screen? during this time the keyboard closes 2 or 3 times.? This can make vi a real PITA too. Perhaps I'm just using the IT differently from most, I don't view it as sterility a muti-media toy.? To me it's my #1 tool for doing my job, so perhaps I'm a bit sensitive.? Sorry if I sound ranty I don't mean to be but I am wondering why so may drastic changes were made to a really good app. James _______________________________________________ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users at maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
