On second thoughts, don't worry about anything I've said. I've found another program called dialogue which lets me look at what's going on inside folders.

It should work. You didn't happen to type the single quotes shown in Titano's post, or the double quotes shown in your post, did you? Try typing those commands without quotes.

Hm... how odd... So lets go over this and see if we can fix it.
I highly recommend xterm, it's really a great app. Learning how to use terminal can be a little daunting at first but it's a priceless ability. Just remember to keep trying, also the more information the better. Even if you think it's irrelevant, go ahead and post it. |

I XTERM works with firmware 5.0.0. Sometimes you have to force refresh the screen, but no other problems.

Please help to teach the terminal to display Cyrillic characters. Is it possible?

However utf8 or cyrillic input is not supported by now. I am aware of this problem and I want to solve it if time allows. |

Hi! I spent some time without my kindle, which allowed me to read some books at last
Now, being back, I made some improvements to XTerm package. Most important is ability to rotate screen – landscape and portrait mode. It is triggered by "Rotate Screen" option in main menu. Hope it works ok. New package as usually here |

What do you want to achieve? Edit: I think I know what you mean. I read your thread about kindle as external monitor. You may try with this binary. Use it instead of xterm binary included in my package. You will also have to modify startup scripts to avoid starting keyboard and so on. Last edited by baf; 09-16-2012 at 02:39 PM. |

How can I set as default the landscape rotation and font size: huge?
When I try to save in nano, it says I have a read only file system. How can I change this? I put nano in the opt folder. I had also installed nano from the GUI Launcher Collection and apparently it uses xterm to launch, but when I replace the xterm with the new version, I don't see the keyboard. The GUI Launcher nano is able to save files ok, even though I can't locate them when exploring through USB. Last edited by Tonttu; 09-18-2012 at 04:08 PM. |
