Hi guys, it's been a long time since I last posted here. Mainly because I'm not using Maemo on a phone, which seems to be what most discussions are about. But...

I am trying to get something working with Hildon on an old BenQ S6, and thought that I might find some help here.

I've been able to install all sorts of applications on the device, since it runs an old version of sorts of Fedora Core. But the desktop is Hildon. I've had no trouble getting icons on the desktop in their respective tabs, and can launch them easily from the desktop. My problem comes when I then launch another app, purposefully not closing out the first app. with the built-in apps, I can task switch back and forth between them, but the apps I've added don't show up in the active running programs list (it has its own tab), even though they are still running. I just can't get them back in the foreground.

I am thinking it has something to do with the way I have my applications' hildon.desktop file set up.

So, for example, I have the following defined for Textmaker:

*****
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Name=Textmaker
Exec=/home/root/bin/textmakerfree
Icon=/usr/share/pixmaps/tml_48.png
Terminal=false
X-Window-Icon=textmaker
X-Window-Icon-Dimmed=textmaker
X-Icon-path=/usr/share/pixmaps
X-Window-Icon=tn-bookmarks-link
X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=true
X-Osso-Service=textmakerfree
X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable

*****

Am I missing anything? Or is this even the right place I should be looking?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

Rick
