The problem is somewhat more complex: it's ok that the home button drives the user to the desktop, it's wrong that the tuxpaint icon doesn't appear in the toolbar and the user cannot go back to tuxpaint. I tried several times to solve this issue (that happens also to other applications ported to the tablets) without success. -- Alessandro Pasotti w3: www.itopen.it |
