Do you NEED the enter key? Control-M usually works instead.

The three shortcuts on the dock (messages, calendar, and browser) are static and cannot be changed. This was designed intentionally in order to provide the professional look of the theme with the dock reflections and overall appearance. However, the fourth icon provides an expose section that corresponds with the first five applications in your main application window. Those are fully customizable. This is the theme that I use daily and I keep my expose window open at all times (but that's just personal preference). So in reality, the theme has eight different shortcuts that can be added to it without unneeded clutter.

Howto: Write Support

aDosBox is missing SD-Card write permissions. Workaround: Loop FS

1. Connect to phone
adb shell
bash
2. Create 32MB HD-Image on SD Card
dd if=/dev/zero of=/sdcard/drive_c.ext2 bs=1024 count=32768
3. Create FS inside image
mkfs.ext2 -F /sdcard/drive_c.ext2
4. Map loop device
losetup /dev/block/loop1 /sdcard/drive_c.ext2
5. Create mountpoint and mount
mkdir /sdcard/drive_c
mount /dev/block/loop1 /sdcard/drive_c
6. Move your "WINDOWS" directory to /sdcard/drive_c/
7. Make this writeable from the app
chmod -R 777 /sdcard/drive_c
8. Modify dosbox.conf to autostart Windows
replace everything under [autoexec] with
mount c /sdcard/drive_c
c:
cd windows
win
exit

Win311 will work without the LoopFS but cannot write to its Harddisk. On shutdown it will complain, but on the plus side you cannot brake it :D

Also: It will run much faster if you increase cycles to 5000 in dosbox.conf. Simply setting it to "max" will make it even slower thogh...

How do you change the home screen shortcuts?

Instead of BT Keyboard use this: http://code.google.com/p/andro...

Keyboard via USB Cable (using adb). Works fine with Linux if you launch the adb daemon first. After installing Windows launch it one time on your PC. This way you won't get any starting error messages. Modify dosbox.conf to autostart windows, then you don't need the keyboard anymore :)

I decided to take down obstaclescankill.com since I wanted to put my focus into other things. But the OSX Leopard theme that you are talking about is still hosted at the same URL's that they had previously been so that all the sites that linked to it wouldn't suddenly have broken links. The theme is not being supported anymore though and I no longer even have the original source files. Here are the OTA links:
