[pymaemo-devel] AppViews and installing

[Dave C. <da...@cr...>]

First off, I don't have a 770. I do have the development environment 
setup and running fine, though.

Python for Maemo runs fine, too - I've got the beginnings of my app 
(a port of my low-bandwidth IMAP client, Polymer) working, and come 
to terms with GTK+, etc. So far, so good.

I'd like to start pushing out something for people to try, but I have 
two problems:

1) I've seen reports that you can't actually install Python for Maemo 
on a real 770. That would be a bit of a showstopper for me. Some 
people seem to suggest that you can, but you have to flash the thing 
into R&D mode, and that's no good at all for the majority of people.

2) Appviews just don't seem to work. I can programmatically switch 
them, but most of the time, my app doesn't appear in the task list at 
all, and on the rare occasions it does, it only shows one appview. 
(That happens to be the summary appview, curently.)

None of the registration functions appear to be present, so I can't 
register them anyway.

Dave.
