Thanks for the tip.

Some of these services, like scim-panel-gtk, are very useful to have when using the phone interactively. And totally redundant when the device is locked.

Also, I'd be weary of dsme/watchdog. Out of ignorance, a few weeks ago I renamed the actual browserd executable, frustrated that it would always run and seemed to often keep my CPU busy even when I'd closed all my browser windows. The dsme rebooted the phone within 5 seconds, and I ended up with a reboot loop.

Would adjusting those values satisfy dsme and stop it rebooting?
