If one keeps camera lens cover open all the time (mine is and cannot shut it down), will the program work?

lfocus will not open up until it gets the signal from the lens cover.

whats on my mind now is that you can play with the stop_focus.py script to make it force the lens cover signal.

[edit]
or

you can hash out (comment out "#") the "self.hide_all()" located in line 130 of lfocuswi.py and replace it with "self.show_all()"

do not run lfocus.py directly
instead use:
sudo lfocus start
that will activate the keyboard script for you
and when you're done type in:
sudo lfocus stop
