No problem with editing the file, just a big problem saving it. Pemission denied. I can't see an easy way in emelFM2 to change pemission to 'user'. I have tried to use Xterminal, become root, and then change pemission for the file.
Ah, I'm sorry, I do my editing as root using joe (a console application) as the editor.
Anyway that's just to fix the menu item, you can test that everything is working by manually executing /home/user/navistart in a console (x-terminal).
Once you confirmed that it works, open a console, become root, and type the following commands exactly as you see them here
Code:
cd /usr/share/dbus-1/services
mv com.nokia.navicore.service com.nokia.navicore.service.bak
cat > com.nokia.navicore.service <<EOF
[D-BUS Service]
Name=com.nokia.navicore
Exec=/home/user/navistart
EOF
cd will put you in the correct directory, mv will rename the file to have a backup and finally the cat will create a new file with everything you write until the EOF (note that the prompt will change to >).
