MX5000 keyboard lcd utility for mail che
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
You have a Logitech MX5000 Keyboard and would like to use its nice LCD screen ? Then you've come to the right place. This python script will tell you when you have new mail(s) via your keyboard's LCD. Before you can use this programm you must install mx5000-tools which can be found here : http://home.gna.org/mx5000tools/
I wrote a little web page to explain the steps toward setting up easily your keyboard here :

I don't really have time to improve this work right now but feel free to add comments and suggestions.

My Issue:
I'm getting a Segfault, this could be because I have Qt4 installed and this maybe written for qt3. Also can you release the ui files? Thanks

About the segfault error, I had one when turning off the computer under KDE while the app was still running but now i'm using Gnome and I don't have it anymore. Anyway, you probably know more about this than I do.

I have installed netpbm 10.26.44-10.x86_64 and libnetpbm10 and libnetpbm-devel same versions.
Now in configure execution error netpbm not found:
Quote:checking for linux/hiddev.h... yes
checking pbm.h usability... yes
checking pbm.h presence... yes
checking for pbm.h... yes
checking for pbm_readpbm in -lnetpbm... no
configure: error: You need netpbm installed
I can't find a solution in official home page and bug trackers.
PD: The function pbm_readpbm is present in file pbm.h as bit** pbm_readpbm(......), if its changed to void bit** pbm_readpbm(...) the error is fatal. I don't know the tree headers. Thanks

Well, unfortunately, I'm not the guy who did the hard work on this. I mean, I didn't do the main programm myself (i.e. mx5000-tools). So if you are experiencing problems installing it you should probably ask Olivier Crête, the author of the programm.
I personnaly had no problem compiling it, I just had to install netpbm-devel and glib2. And I would add that you probably know more than me about how this whole compiling things work, so sorry but I can't be of any help here.
