Eye of GNOME for Maemo

Since a while ago, and during my work at Igalia, I’ve been porting EOG to Maemo using the new and great Fremantle widgets!

The project is still in an *early stage* but I couldn’t wait more to let everyone know about it so today I’ve published the git repository.

The project is being done as a branch of the original EOG. You can get the source by doing:

$ git clone http://git.igalia.com/eog.git
$ git checkout –track -b mobile origin/mobile

And then, you know, inside scratchbox:

$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install
$ run-standalone.sh eog

Thank you to the people who helped me porting EOG, mainly Claudio and Berto.

And here you have a screencast and some nice screenshots, hope you like it:

    Wow, eog’s hardly recognisable on Freemantle. :-)
    Looks really nice.

    I reall don’t like the feel of one dialog spawning another. Also they block the entire application?

  5. Joaquim Rocha Says:

    Hi anon,

    How would you suggest it to be done then?

    What do you mean by they blocking the entire app?

    Cheers,
