So, Intel gave us all these cool netbook tablets. What can we do with them?

== MeeGo Hax ==

=== Its a Linux box, put Linux stuff on it ===
Zypper is the default package management system for MeeGo.  Many standard GNU utilities are included in the default repos.  You should install these if you're a developer:
* vim
* gcc
* git
* ruby
* ruby-irb

Searching for packages is fairly straightforward:
<pre>
$ zypper search chromium
</pre>

Installing packages requires root privies, which you can use sudo to gain using the password that was assigned by default (1234):
<pre>
$ sudo zypper install chromium
</pre>

=== Make Tablet Less Suck ===
* Install [http://www.chromeextensions.org/appearance-functioning/chrometouch/ chromeTouch] extension.

=== Install KDE ===
For those of you who don't RAGE RAGE RAGE about KDE, you can install KDE on to
MeeGo, including experimental KDEPIM mobile packages, which are
freaking sexy.

=== Make Virtual Keyboard Work ===
Instructions taken from: [http://blog.neteril.org/2010/11/19/turning-your-meego-lenovo-s10-3t-into-a-real-slate/]

1. To get the keyboard in place.. open the terminal and run these lines.. (The $ is the command prompt 
<pre>
$ sudo -s
       (password is 1234 by default)
$ cd /etc/zypp/repos.d/
$ sudo -s
$ cp netbook.repo handset.repo
$ sed 's/netbook/handset/' -i handset.repo
$ zypper refresh # at this point you will probably have a security alert, ignore it
$ zypper install meegotouch-inputmethodbridges meegotouch-inputmethodkeyboard meegotouch-theme meegotouch-theme-meego libmeegotouch-qtstyle meegotouch-systemui
</pre>

2. To avoid a weird parsing bug, comment out line 715 in /usr/share/themes/base/meegotouch/libmeegotouchcore/style/commonlayouts.css
Do that by (also in the terminal), doing:
<pre>
vim /usr/share/themes/base/meegotouch/libmeegotouchcore/style/commonlayouts.css
</pre>
and then typing :715 and then using insert mode (press 'i') so you can type text. Add a /* and */ before and after the line.
When done, press ESC key a few times and then :x to exit and save.

3. Then you're doing to change how the meego UI/desktop thing loads. 
<pre>
vim /etc/xdg/autostart/meego-im-uiserver.desktop 
</pre>
Then change the Exec=*blah blah* line to say:
<pre>
Exec=/usr/bin/meego-im-uiserver -target slate -bypass-wm-hint
</pre>
Then change the OnlyShowIn line to have X-MEEGO-NB at the end after the X-MEEGO-HS seperating them by a ; (colon).
When done, press ESC key a few times and then :x to exit and save.

OK, now if you restart you would have a keyboard.. But let's make one more mod so it's even better...

4. Let's make the keyboard transparent so you don't lose have your screen..
Go back to the terminal and run:
<pre>
vim /usr/share/themes/base/meegotouch/svg/meegotouch-keyboard.svg
</pre>
Somewhere in the first few lines you'll see something similar to:
<pre>
<svg version="1.1"
  id="meegotouch-keyboard-layer"
  viewBox="0 0 500 480"
  style="enable-background:new 0 0 500 480; opacity:0.4"
  xml:space="preserve">
</pre>
Except your version don't have "opacity:0.4" ..which is the part you'll add. Just throw it at the end of the line using the same commands as before.
I recommend "opacity:0.2" instead of the meego recommended 0.4

5. Now restart. Type "reboot" at the command line
