MiniMo 0.14 running on 770

Last Friday, I spent some time making a .deb of the newest MiniMo (Mini Mozilla - 0.14) and that's what I can tell about it:
  • As faster as an end user can expect
  • 11 Mbs of footprint (GREAT !)
    • Nokia770-05:/var/lib/install/usr/lib/minimo# du -sh
    • 10.7M
  • Has SSR and Pan !!!!
What makes me impressed was the fact of with any modification on the minimo source code, it runs on 770 very well (it's a XUL app not GTK) !

Congrats to Minimo Team. For more about it check dougt's post

Looking Forward to put MANaOS running over such a build. I hope doug can help here :)

_Installing it:
  • Via AI
_Running it:

Nokia770-05: cd /var/lib/install/usr/lib/minimo/
Nokia770-05: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.
Nokia770-05:/var/lib/install/usr/lib/minimo# export DISPLAY=:0
Nokia770-05:/var/lib/install/usr/lib/minimo# ./minimo

chris,

if "homebase bar" is the vertical one on the left side of the window, I can open link from there in new tabs with no problems ...

is it what you meant ?

yes. I'll see if I can do some more testing and debugging to figure out why I'm crashing when hitting any of the homebase buttons.

humm weird ...

I'll be flashing my 770 with a open-maemo image and check if it's a problem with the image itself

it seems like some people running old maemo-images getting segfault

mis-match of registered components inf the "compreg" file can cause start up crashes, and will do so frequently of the install process doesn't remove the old one, or if old components are left around from the previous install. try removing that file and restarting.
