It's okay

but I think it's better if I upload all the PNG's on Imageshak... they will stay longer than on my space i think ....
(could you PM me the Password, too?)

Wow, very impressive what everyone has accomplished thus far! I am finally getting my Pre tomorrow and I can't wait to dig into it.
just curious, what server is the #webos-internals irc channel on? I havent used IRC since the mid-late 90's!
EDIT: Never mind. Found the wiki, found my answer! freenode
Virox, you're awesome! Thanks a million!
UPDATE: Got it to send traffic through by changing the ip_forward=yes, but evdo adapter still turns off when wifi is enabled.

Hey guys.
Just put a new tutorial on the wiki
pre dev wiki: Drag Menus
Basically I can never open the App Menu or Device Menu that are in the status bars. This lets you drag your finger down through them or tap them to open the menus. I think these menus are about half the recommended size for hit targets on web os.
awesome!! tks all.
Now, back to more poking of the code for me.
I'm hoping if you can also create biblegateway.com icon.
For RadioReference, there are too many custom search options to put one on the page. It's a nationwide database and has forums, too. Maybe just reference RadioReference.com.

Wow, really liking the tweak I just saw on the wiki to allow you to drag to access appmenu and devicemenu. It makes them so much easier to use.

Indeed. I think this is the area we should focus on to change the up gesture... but I gotta tell you it's less frustrating now to use the device!
somehow, I tried the DragMenu, and got a whitebar at top... no menu.
EDIT: don't comment out the original code.. So now you can do both tap and drag. Somehow, that would allow luna to draw the bar

Did anyone try this yet? This seems like a development that is getting more attention in the blogs than in the forum and wiki.
Just a side note, i'm not sure about Virox, but I don't have a Pre yet, so, atleast from my side, none of the images/urls listed on the
Pre Dev Wiki page are tested.
If anyone can test these and confirm that they work, I would like to make a note of that as well on the page, so we know which ones are tested and working, and which one's aren't. Thanks guys!
This is fun! I can't WAIT to actually get a Pre and start loading these things on!

the IRC channel is pretty active. I think its just harder to come up with a custom ROM image (or is it?)

I thought about that, but that kinda defeats the purpose of including it in the Global Search buttons list. Might as well make it an icon in the launcher?
I'm going to try to figure out, at least a basic search feature that can bring you to the page and maybe throw the word you typed in SOMEWHERE... we'll see...
shouldn't be too hard...

I have done amazon, imdb, my custome biblegatway (no beautiful graphic from Virox), everything works except the amazon is off-to the left side.

Awesome, thanks for the info! I'll update the wiki page.

I've been playing around a bit with the browser config a bit and I don't think the default config is caching pages the way it's configured. I've enabled caching of previous pages (up to 5) and set the disk cache at 16mb and I think it's improved browsing speed.
If somebody could do some more testing, it might be of interest. I can't tell which config it's reading as there are two, so I've edited both.
/etc/palm/browser-app.conf and
/etc/palm/browser.conf
after mounting rw
Edit:
[CODE]PageCacheCapacity=0
DiskCacheEnabled=false
DiskCacheTotalBytes=1MB (or 16MB in browser-app.conf)
DiskCacheDebug=false
DiskCacheLargestObjectSize=500k (or 1MB in browser-app.conf)[/CODE]
to read:
[CODE]PageCacheCapacity=5
DiskCacheEnabled=true
DiskCacheTotalBytes=16MB
DiskCacheDebug=false
DiskCacheLargestObjectSize=1MB
[/CODE]
In both files. Mount ro and reboot. You should notice that the pages when you hit Back load a bit faster. Sites such as reddit will display the previous content, not completely reload the page. Is this working for anybody else or is it just my mind?
