Notices

i accedantly deleted usr/share/application/hildon thinking it will only clean my desktop but i lost all application from menu list
i.e i can't run any program like xterm email contacts etc but i still have filebox and web (i have shortcut for themon desktop already)

can someone zip or rar the entire usr/share/application/hildon folder so that i can paste it back and can access xterm and other essincial programs to fix the problem


thanks alot guys

The contents of other persons' application/hildon folder won't help you fix everything unless they have the same applications installed as you do. You'll get the basic app icons back, but you'll not get all of them. In addition, your likely to get a lot of icons that correspond to applications not installed on your N900.

Did you install an SSH server to your N900? If so, perhaps you could ssh to the N900 and run a apt-get update, or some kinds of apt-get reinstall that would re-download the apps you have and restore the mission desktop icon files.

i understand that,, i can remove icons that i dont have their apps installed

i can manage it once i get the xterm, email, contacts plus all other deafault programs

i would really appreciate it if you can just zip the folder and i'll take it from here

i re-installed all apps i use and all webos games

i just need the following .desktop files
xterm
calender
photoes
video
email
etc

i cant run xterm so cant try apt-get commands

Just press Ctrl+Sift+x to open XTerminal.

thanks alot for the hint

i tried apt-get commands and it didnt fix the missing shortcut


i have to wait for someone to upload the files or it seams that i need to create all .desktop files myself ... the problem is that i dont know the executable files for those apps: phone , contacts, video, photos, camera, calender, email and so on


its deadlock situation for me

Here's mine but do I have Catorize installed so that may be an issue if you haven't. Maybe installing it via apt may help you out in that scenario.

I realy cant thank you enough. you alost have all apps i needed plus more.

btw. you dont seem to like webos games!

I have a PS3 for games, but I did notice Arkanoid is out there somewhere, so I'll take a step into the n900 realm of emulation with that some day.

i use my n900 just for facebook and games..

there are some neat emulaters out there. but i advice u to try the webos games such as settlers, uno, monopoly, glyder 2, and jump o'clock to mention a few. your n90p will look like iphone4
