I'm trying to use the homescreen adapter to create a desktop widget, but I'm having some problems.

I've been following these tutorials http://danielwilms.de/new/?p=126 and http://danielwilms.de/new/?p=140 and I've managed to create an executable and a .deb file.

When I run the executable on my N900, it runs as a fullscreen widget (which is to be expected when it's not added to the desktop through the menu, I guess). When trying to install the .deb I get:


home/user/MyDocs # dpkg -i maemohomescreen_0.1-1_armel.deb
Selecting previously deselected package maemohomescreen.
(Reading database ... 24849 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking maemohomescreen (from maemohomescreen_0.1-1_armel.deb) ...
Setting up maemohomescreen (0.1-1) ...
home/user/MyDocs #

If I then go the desktop and try add it as a desktop widget, it doesn't show up in the menu.

I've attached the project with debian files etc if anyone could have a look
