Type special characters in xterm in N900

UPDATE: The build failed because of gcc's multislot USE flag(seed stage has it while catalyst can't set USE for stage3). I was on a trip so there is actually no progress for the last 5 days. Sorry. I have worked around it. Now rebuilding.

First, sudo gainroot.

Then run the following two commands:
/home/user # gconftool-2 -s /apps/osso/xterm/key_labels -t list --list-type=string '[Tab,Esc,~,`,|,>,<]'
/home/user # gconftool-2 -s /apps/osso/xterm/keys -t list --list-type=string "[Tab,Escape,asciitilde,grave,bar,greater,less]"
Then restart your xterm, you will see the bottom bar looks like the one showing in the following picture:



This picture shows that I am building new stage3 for Loongson 2F, N32 ABI, ;)

Aha, so you are both interrested in the N900 and the loongson ? Funny as I'm currently using both also :)

Anyway, thank you for the tip (and for the new N32 gentoo - when will it be available BTW ?). I noticed I prefer adding more chars in this bar (like = for instance) even if the pulldown menu is a bit ugly its still much easier than to press the Sym key)

Worked for me as well. Great post! Now how do I banish Ctrl? It already has a hard button.

Just what i was searching for, and a concise solution, awesome :)
Now, for myoptical humans like me, a next step can be embarked in the "How-to: Customizing and theming maemo". To give the GUI surrounding of the shell less space by reducing the font sizes and the bar sizes and maybe more:

Rippled thread cpu usage

Image
The cpu usage of xrp.ninja validator spikes every 2 hours. I always wonder what it is doing during the spikes. So I wrote a script to report the thead cpu usage to a statsd server.  I started statsd/graphite/grafana using  https://github.com/ripple/rippledmon Then I wrote this script: #!/usr/bin/python3 import collections import itertools import os import re import statsd import subprocess import time HEADER = b'%CPU COMMAND' STATSD = 'XXX' PORT = 'YYY' PREFIX = 'rippled.threads' TOP = 'env HOME={0} top -b -n 1 -p $(pgrep rippled) -H'.format(os.getcwd()) def report(c, jobs): p = subprocess.run(TOP, shell=True, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE) if p.returncode != 0: print(p.stderr) return m = collections.defaultdict(float) for line in itertools.dropwhile(lambda x: x != HEADER, p.stdout.splitlines()): if line == HEADER: continue usage, comm = line.decode().str
