Anyone have any information on this? I've been having network problems ever since I re-installed a few weeks ago. So much so that my server has been down for almost the whole time since I didn't have time to figure this out.

Grabbed the latest skins and orbiter and looking good! I'm running the tablet version on my Galaxy Nexus. Any config way to change the UI? I'd like to test out the phone version too without renaming folders...

I have one too but have yet to integrate it.

Just a little thing, wizards are good for the first time or two through a system. After that they are an excise and an annoyance.

Perfect idea Thom! It looks good so far too. With the advent of cheap Android tablets, I LOVE this! I'm going to permanently mount a tablet on the wall by my front door as a house/alarm control as soon as this qOrbiter is ready since these tablets are now cheaper than alarm keypads.

I'm running completely stock Galaxy Nexus running Jellybean 4.1 as well as a Honeycomb Vizio VTAB1008. The Nexus fails to find the file and the Vizio just crashes. Oh, wait. My Nexus is working right now. It works surprisingly well over the interwebs.

I don't mind the network loading of skins as it makes for easy updates and testing. Having them on the phone is faster though. If you are concerned about space, then the best way would be to only have the files on the device for the skin that the user has chosen. Maybe give a skin selector that then downloads the entire skin from the server. Sounds like a "later" type of issue. Many of the skin managers I've seen so far allow one to install packages from the store for the different skins. A person can just install the skins they want.

Also, can you just emulate the different versions of Android?

One last thing, I noticed that there is a problem triggering the events when a button is pressed. For example, when I click on Video the system powers on my receiver and changes all the inputs correctly. This doesn't happen on this orbiter. Ideas?

I keep getting the same thing on my Galaxy Nexus phone.

I'm on a galaxy tab 7" Android 2.2.
I followed the wiki, but get an error when running qorbiter. It can't find the file: "Screen_1.qml".
The file is located in /var/www/lmce-admin/skins/android/tablet/default/screens, thats where it should be right? Is read-access enough or does it want to write as well?

thanks

Thanks for sharing the results! I was just experimenting with that and found that my phone is always showing the tablet interface and I could get nothing to pick the phone interface so I renamed the folder and now it shows up. 

I like the concept of a dashboard for this. It is something quite useful to have today's weather, sunrise, sunset, alarm status (and activity), and any alerts all on one page. Clicking on the alarm status will, of course, take one to the alarm panel. Having a mini map of the house or a generic lighting status would be cool. This page can get too busy too fast. I like the necessary item summary, nothing more. Detail pages already exist for many items.

Worked for me too! Thanks!

Wow! That was quick! Thanks so much!

So, I ran an update, bad things happened. Oddities formed. One such thing is this:

Code:

01      07/18/12 11:19:10.588           gethostbyname2 for 'schema.linuxmce.org', failed, Last Error Code 3, Device: 1 <0xb78546d0>
05      07/18/12 11:19:10.588           void ClientSocket::Disconnect() on this socket: 0x860dc98 (m_Socket: 5) <0xb78546d0>
05      07/18/12 11:19:10.588           ClientSocket::Connect() not successful <0xb78546d0>

Any time I update sqlCVS, i get the preceding error.

I just downloaded the nightly one and installed it. Works rather well.

Well, it looks like the Ministro guys updated the library set. It ran once. Then qOrbiter automatically updated and now it says: "Your application encountered a fatal error and cannot continue." every time I start it.

I'm assuming that Ministro does not have a relationship between Jelly Bean's version and the version of the libraries. That's my best guess. I've looked through their website but found nothing.
