some of you may already know this, but for those that dont you can have the menu icons sweeping in when launching the menu and the sub menu

goto usr/share/hildon-desktop
and open the Transitions ini file looking for this:





just change 'sequenced = 0' to 'sequenced = 1'
and 'duration = 250' to 'duration = 1200'

the duration (speed) can be set how ever you like,
higher number = faster movement (or slower, cant remember!)

(thanks to megaexer for explaining this to me)
(also dont EVER change 'snap_grid_size = 4'
to zero, cos doing that bricked me!)

OK, scratch that: that only worked once...

Do this, instead:

Do the sudoers trick outlined above;

/usr/share/dbus-1/services/reboot.service:

[D-BUS Service]
Name=com.misc.reboot
Exec=/usr/bin/sudo reboot

/etc/systemui/systemui.xml:

<menuitem priority="750" name="Reboot">
<icon>general_refresh</icon>
<callback service="com.misc.reboot" path="/com/misc/reboot" interface="com.misc.reboot" method="reboot" bus="session" autostart="true">
<argument type="boolean">true</argument>
</callback>
</menuitem>

Packaged up and compressed with OptiPNG are the PNG files for my HTC-Style QBW Flipclock, as well as the RX-TX-IP widget, and YahooWeather widget.
Make sure you have WGET installed (apt-get install wget)

You'll need the QBW Flipclock widgets installed already, this is a modification to change the look by using different png files.

The flipclock can be installed from this this thread
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...=qbw+flipclock

The format to make this work is a little different to the original - all of the digits have a TRANSPARENT background, so another qbw is used as the flipclock for the digits. I have supplied single and wide flipclock backgrounds for your taste (credit Darkl4r for the original)

For this purpose, the separate filename sare flipclocktrans.png.* and flipclockblank.png/flipclockblankwide.png

The panel in the background is for the main flipclock code.

Extract all to /home/user/.queen_beecon_dir and edit the qbw files to match - they are named different so as not to overwrite the original flipclock files.
Enjoy!

EDIT: RX-TX-IP fixed Not sure why it happened.

Hi Moudy,
I have also wanted something like this for quite a while so would also appreciate it if this could be produced fairly easily. The closest I have found is a command posted by j.s. It is an xterm command but can also be used in queen beecon which I have already done. The only trouble is that the counter gets reset when the phone does. But, it may help. It did help me.

Code:

/sbin/ifconfig wlan0

or to focus only on bytes tranferred (both directions):
Code:

/sbin/ifconfig wlan0 | grep bytes
