I have tried this before posting but did not work..

Nokia-N900-02-8:~# cp -r /home/user/.queen_beecon_dir /home/user/MyDocs/dir1

no error is produced but there is nothing in dir1

edit: do I have to save one by one using the export procedure?

No!No!No!Yes!

Save content (Beecons' Images) of these TWO directories:

Code:

/home/user/.queen_beecon_dir

/home/user/MyDocs/.images/queen_beecon_dir/

It could be possible that this directory is empty:

Is this possible for big text outputs? (so output doesn't go outside of the box)...

Sorry, forgot this!!!

Note that I haven't tested this. More info on fold is available from http://unixhelp.ed.ac.uk/CGI/man-cgi?fold. Specifically the -w width may be of interest, depending on the width of your widget.

Not quite automatic word wrap, but this should work on a command-by-command basis.

As long as you can write logic to parse the output, with awk/sed/etc. and programmatically isolate the ipaddress ... you can stick Pango Markup Language around it:

PHP Code:

And it will be shown with all the bells & wistles you like :cool:

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget: Customizable and flexible monitoring tool.

I keep having issues with this great app.
Please some help...

When I create my own commands I sometimes have an error in de the desktop stating that hildon-desktop needs to shutdown???

I am trying to add a command to start homunculus from root.
In X-terminal it works like this:
root homunculus

can this be done in queen app?

No!No!No!Yes!

N900 hildon-desktop & hildon-home processes might have some sort of watchdog mechanisms which prevent them from getting stuck if some widgets/status applets don't return them control in a timely fashion.

Try put a "&" character at the end of your command and cross your fingers!

This will force "homunculus" to be run in the background and immediately return control to hildon-* processes

UPDATE 201004221350CET: Sorry, method described above launches program but locks desktop widgets. Do not use it!!!!

Maybe you'd like to try this...
http://www.themaemo.com/howto-launch...om-a-shortcut/

And change:

Code:

Exec=/usr/bin/osso-xterm top

with:

Code:

Exec=root homunculus

Maybe you should use full path for the two commands.

Thanks

at my post above, in every sudo command (root commands),

type: echo "<command_that_is_root>" І sudo gainroot

for example:

Code:

echo "echo 1000000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq" | sudo gainroot

that is for kernel for power users to increase cpu max frequency to 1GHz.

you can also do some sudo commands like reboot, apt-get clean etc, but be carefull and read between the lines of the options.

thanks to No!No!No!Yes! and jakiman

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget: Customizable and flexible monitoring tool.

I noticed that that piping it to sudo gainroot doesn't work for my friend's N900 for some reason. So I used following instead and it works. (works in my phone also and this is better a it returns no output)

sudo /usr/sbin/kernel-load /home/user/MyDocs/files/overclock_1000

(where overclock_1000 is a copied/modified file of the kernel power setting default profiles)

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget: Customizable and flexible monitoring tool.

I'm trying to create a 2G/3G toggle widget.

When I copy and paste the (rather long) 2g3g.sh script from here

http://wiki.maemo.org/Desktop_Comman...cripts#2G.2F3G

into the Command field of the AddCmd settings, all that is entered is the first line of the script

*!/bin/sh

No!No!No!Yes!

[Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget - GPRS Compact Data Monitor

1 Attachment(s)

This is in very early stages of development so it doesn't deserve its proper thread...
It's just a proof of concept for handling persistency of configuration data across multiple command executions... Furthermore PR1.2 is supposed to bring changes to counters position so... let's wait a little bit more for final version.

Customize Queen BeeCon Widget (>=v0.1.4) to display:
GPRS Compact Data Monitor
The Beecon will show plenty of Data Plan information and statistics, plus changes background according to data plan capacity consumption.

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget: Customizable and flexible monitoring tool.

Current developments are now focused on providing Inter Process Communication among QBW instances and with other Applications.

This feature is under design/development as I would like to release the much complete and customizable IPC mechanism possible, like for example:

Give impulse to a Beecon for content update
Give impulse to a Beecon for layout update
Give other beecons one-shot alternative scripts to execute
Remotely change QBW settings
Retrieve other beecon's last executed commands exit status
Provide to non graphical programs and daemons a suitable interface for displaying information on precustomized beecons on screen (for example Dbus Scripts for displaying events on the system/session DBUS like cell IDs changes, available WLANs and the like)

I encourage you to suggest possible enhancements or wishlists in this area.

There are infinite possibilities ... just stay tuned!!!

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget: Customizable and flexible monitoring tool.

I am sure this is written somewhere but can't get it to work.

echo `date +"%A, %-Y-%m-%-d - Vecka %W"`

What am i doing wrong? Also i am trying to make a button to switch my kernel-setting to use limits. In this case i don't want the "root shell enabled" output. Just want the bg to show. Is it possible to get output not to show?

Under Command Result Settings choose the position to be hidden, then the output won't show up.

BTW: why bothering using Pango Markup Tags when you can stick to native QBW formatting settings from here:

OK this is Naive Poker Roller: just a Proof of Concept of what will be possible when new IPC mechanism will be implemented:

http://i41.tinypic.com/34f1mpx.jpg

The 5 poker dices and the "ROLL DICES" button are all QBW

Every dice is the graphic instance of a simple random number generator command (From 1 to 6 ... Duh!)
Every dice will be able to roll separately by just touching it.

The "ROLL DICES" button will be able to roll all of the 5 dices at the same time.

It will only be necessary to know the Instance ID of the 5 QBW dices and attach to the button a specially crafted command/script which will basically issue the following five commands:

Code:

dbus-send --session --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.qbw /com/nokia/qbwid0 com.nokia.qbw.update

dbus-send --session --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.qbw /com/nokia/qbwid1 com.nokia.qbw.update

dbus-send --session --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.qbw /com/nokia/qbwid2 com.nokia.qbw.update

dbus-send --session --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.qbw /com/nokia/qbwid3 com.nokia.qbw.update

dbus-send --session --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.qbw /com/nokia/qbwid4 com.nokia.qbw.update

The id0 id1 id2 id3 id4 QBW Instance IDs will be easily visible/accessible at the top of settings dialog box.

Ciao,
this will work ...

Code:

echo "`date +"%A, %-Y-%m-%-d - Vecka %W"`"

BTW: why bothering using Pango Markup Tags when you can stick to native QBW formatting settings from here:

I wanted to have one string at one size and another at another size in the same command. So thats why i could change the "global" setting ;)

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget: Customizable and flexible monitoring tool.

Another question.. and this might be a too big one. Right now if i use the date command. It will show the date in english. But i would like it to show in my native language swedish. Is there any easy way to do this? If a script is necessary could someone help me with this as i am not good at scripting? ;)

No!No!No!Yes!

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget: Customizable and flexible monitoring tool.

@No!No!No!Yes!: hi, i am impressed by your scripting skills.

maybe, you have a quick solution for the following:

the rss feed from http://talk.maemo.org/ gives me unfortunately
the latest threads but what i want is different:

1) i want the the latest n active topics as shown on
http://talk.maemo.org/search.php?do=getdaily and

2) i want the latest m posts for the threads under 1)

can you help out? thanx.

Blues

No!No!No!Yes!

could you find out the exact RSS urls for 1) and 2) ?
Once I have the two urls and an idea of what you'd like to obtain as output (meaning structure of the output) I'll try to help with the shell/awk scripting.
Bye.

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget: Customizable and flexible monitoring tool.

@No!No!No!Yes!: the point is that there is no rss feed for 1)
and 2) :-)

if you go to http://talk.maemo.org/ an press "more ..." on the
lower right hand side you will be redirected to
http://talk.maemo.org/search.php?do=getdaily

from here i see the latest n=25 active topics. pressing "last page"
on a chosen topic gives me the latest m posts on the topic.

I suggest you also try and figure out vbulletin capabilities with respect to special URLs crafting for such needs... or maybe ask the forum admins for suggestions.
Further, I still don't get what kind of output you are expecting.
I believe you can try to reformulate your request and apply here for some Mods help.
Also I'm sorry I've gone far beyond off-topic here ... :D

No!No!No!Yes!
