I use a touchpad rather than a mouse or trackball at work (much better for the care and prevention of carpal tunnel issues) and occasionally have gesture problems with it as well. Anyway, here's what I was trying to say: I've been using Dali Clock for quite a while now... http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/daliclock/ and also mClock http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/mclock/ and even gWorld Clock for multiple time zones http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/gworldclock/ I haven't found Large Statusbar Clock to be all that useful, as it's still small http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/statusbarclock/ And I was really pleased just now to find CairoClock has been ported as well! http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/cairoclock/ _______________________________________________ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@xxxxxxxxx https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
