Onboard works, as well as kvkbd.
Hm... then, is there any possibility of developing/installing custom firmware for this thing? I'm looking into writing a Penlet for communicating data over USB, but that's a less-than-complete...
Thanks for the tip. I'll give this a spin :D
So basically, just install utouch? I see...
inportb@natty:~$ apt-cache search utouch
libutouch-grail-dev - Gesture Recognition And Instantiation Library - dev files

That's a good idea. I just made a right-click gesture, which I use to access the icon in the notification area.
I'm also working on a predictive text entry tool in Python (to save me some...
protip: installing natty atm breaks wifi ;)
at any rate, i have easystroke installed again and this time i saved the files...
if you decide to use it, keep in mind that this is a modified...
Paul, I don't have the configuration anymore; it got wiped when I installed Maverick. Nonetheless, I really do think you'd benefit more from EasyStroke if you set it up with the gestures that make...
I found that EasyStroke makes this thing very usable in slate mode. I have mine set up for a Graffiti-like alphabet.
It won't be completely supported out of the box -- you gotta jack into Ethernet and install a restricted wireless driver using Jockey, which should be a painless procedure. You might also have to...
I just noticed that tap-to-right/middle-click no longer works (by default, anyway). On the contrary, clicking with the finger on the bottom right corner seems to be the way to go now. I imagine...
Make sure you're not covering the microphone...
I also tend to prefer KDE, but it seems to use a little bit more resources so I have switched back for now. I do not know how to enable hold-click, but I don't quite like Gnome's implementation -- it...
Thanks for the tip. I'd applied the fix, but didn't know it fixed the internal microphone. I had to undeafen the microphone first :P
I agree that kubuntu-netbook is much more usable at this stage. I use KDE on my laptop and briefly tried the netbook version. How's the resource usage of plasma-netbook and kwin compared to Unity?

I just ran the uTouch tests on Maverick, and it's quite good. Hopefully, there will be lots of progress in this area.
Also, is it just me, or did the netbook launcher take a step back? I don't...
To right-click or middle-click, you do not depress the touchpad. Instead, you tap the lower-right corner to right-click and tap the upper-right corner to middle-click. This is less than ideal, but it...
This is very interesting, Paul S. On Windows, many users disable auto-rotate because it seems a bit sensitive. I too have the feature turned off. If this could be made adjustable on Linux, I sense a...
On the contrary, I don't see any reason to run the 64-bit kernel on this netbook. Why waste memory?
orly? Right-click and middle-click work just fine for me using the Synaptics touchpad. Did you, perchance, push the touchpad down by mistake while trying to right-click?
Agreed; is there a Launchpad entry for that? Also, the left-click registers upon mousedown, and the right-click registers upon mouseup (after a long-click). The behavior is different (and, imo, more...
I had a problem with Ubuntu One slowing down Nautilus. I just removed Ubuntu One and file browsing was improved.
Suspend works; resume doesn't. While suspending, it disables networking. It needs to be manually re-enabled upon reboot after failed resume. Right-click the NetworkManager icon in the notification...
Thanks for the tip. That works for me. Incidentally, I am able to use the Fn keys for volume and brightness. For right-click, tap (but do not press down) the lower-right corner of the touchpad. I...
Interesting... I just started having this issue a couple of days ago.
Aww shiz. Well the upgrade worked for me, but compositing is borked. So far I'm most impressed with window grouping.
