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?

Hi anon,
How would you suggest it to be done then?
What do you mean by they blocking the entire app?
Cheers,
