SCP from N810 to desktop

puppy linux sakura
# scp -r root@192.168.0.103:/usr/share/navit/navit.xml /mnt/sdb7/

SSH to N810

To allow other machines to connect to your tablet/phone. If you wish to access a shell on the tablet from a remote machine (to edit a local file with a real keyboard, perhaps), then all that you need to do is make sure OpenSSH server is installed on the tablet and

ssh root@tablet ip

then input password of N810/N800

Comparison between MicroB, tear, digia@web, firefox,midori

MicroB:(points:9.0)

although a bit slow, it's still very nice. usually it has no error. It's very good to visit wap website when wmlbrowser addon. This is very important for n810/n800. Most of my time I would like to browse wap websites.

Tear:(8.5)

faster, but some chinese website code error. no addons.

Digia@web(9.0)

it's faster than Tear, and no code error. 

firefox: (8.0)

still sometimes crashed even after use "about:config"to config the meomory etc.

midori:(7.5)

multitab browser. median perfomance.

Make Scrollbar wider and move to left side on Nokia N810/N800

TO make scoll bar wider
Change:

1. file /usr/share/themes/echo/gtk-2.0/gtkrc, change setting of scroll bar size (2 or 3 lines, just related to scroll bar size).
2. some image files related to picture of scroll bar at /usr/share/themes/echo/images
3. you can change above files in your theme directory accordingly after you have installed you prefered theme .deb package to get a wide scroll bar theme.
4. if you want to make .deb package for the theme you have just revised, you can copy the theme directory to a linux machine with scratchbox developing environment installed, and run dpkg to generate your deb package in scratchbox. you may alse need to create a simple control file to control building process of your .deb package.


echo theme with wide scroll bar


Move scrollbar to the left:


Pick your favourite theme to edit and go to the appropriate directory in xterm (ex. "/usr/share/themes/glasser/gtk-2.0/")

As super-user ("sudo gainroot" after installing "becomeroot" package) edit the "gtkrc" file in that directory.

Add the line:

Code:
"gtk-scrolled-window-placement = top-right"
somewhere in there (I did it after the short HID section near the top). Restart your tablet


For MicroB


Bit more info for the browser's scrollbar:

- enter about:config in the address field
- in 'Name', type layout.scrollbar.side
- in 'Value', type 3
- hit the enter button of your nokia
- click on the 'Set preferences' button on the browser page
