Hmmm, 2 questions :
1. I can't find the list, are you sure it's supposed to be here :

Code:

Nokia-N900:~# gconftool-2 -g /system/osso/connectivity/network_type/auto_connect
[*]

2. How often is this list created? I need to know how to maintain it, (i'll write a script)

Edit : hmm, ok I found some info, using gconftool -R, but I am having problems deleting or changing, the key just stays there even though I am trying to remove it.
To me it looks like there is a rule with priority 90 that says autoconnect * wildcards, I wanna delete it.

So I tried :

Code:

Nokia-N900:~# gconftool -R /system/osso/connectivity/ui/auto_connect
 /system/osso/connectivity/ui/auto_connect/60_wlan:
  network_types = [WLAN_INFRA]
  label = conn_set_fi_conn_set_wlan
  not_found_banner = conn_ib_net_no_saved_wlan_iaps
  gettext_catalog = osso-connectivity-ui
 /system/osso/connectivity/ui/auto_connect/65_gprs:
  network_types = [GPRS]
  label = %s
 /system/osso/connectivity/ui/auto_connect/90_any:
  network_types =[*]
  label = conn_set_fi_conn_set_any
  not_found_banner = conn_ib_net_no_saved_iaps
  gettext_catalog = osso-connectivity-ui
 /system/osso/connectivity/ui/auto_connect/01_always_ask:
  network_types = []
  label = conn_set_fi_conn_set_always_ask
  gettext_catalog = osso-connectivity-ui
Nokia-N900:~# gconftool --recursive-unset /system/osso/connectivity/ui/auto_connect/90_any
Nokia-N900:~#

Don't worry I backed it up, but if I run the recursive get again, it's still there!!!

Code:

Nokia-N900:~# gconftool -R /system/osso/connectivity/ui/auto_connect
 /system/osso/connectivity/ui/auto_connect/60_wlan:
  network_types = [WLAN_INFRA]
  label = conn_set_fi_conn_set_wlan
  not_found_banner = conn_ib_net_no_saved_wlan_iaps
  gettext_catalog = osso-connectivity-ui
 /system/osso/connectivity/ui/auto_connect/65_gprs:
  network_types = [GPRS]
  label = %s
 /system/osso/connectivity/ui/auto_connect/90_any:
  network_types =[*]
  label = conn_set_fi_conn_set_any
  not_found_banner = conn_ib_net_no_saved_iaps
  gettext_catalog = osso-connectivity-ui
 /system/osso/connectivity/ui/auto_connect/01_always_ask:
  network_types = []
  label = conn_set_fi_conn_set_always_ask
  gettext_catalog = osso-connectivity-ui
Nokia-N900:~#
