I keep having issues with this great app.
Please some help...

When I create my own commands I sometimes have an error in de the desktop stating that hildon-desktop needs to shutdown???

I am trying to add a command to start homunculus from root.
In X-terminal it works like this:
root homunculus

can this be done in queen app?

QBW is not actually meant for running programs with their own GUI as it'll wait till program is closed before returning control to hildon-home (N900 part of desktop processes).
N900 hildon-desktop & hildon-home processes might have some sort of watchdog mechanisms which prevent them from getting stuck if some widgets/status applets don't return them control in a timely fashion.

Try put a "&" character at the end of your command and cross your fingers!

This will force "homunculus" to be run in the background and immediately return control to hildon-* processes

UPDATE 201004221350CET: Sorry, method described above launches program but locks desktop widgets. Do not use it!!!!

Maybe you'd like to try this...
http://www.themaemo.com/howto-launch...om-a-shortcut/

And change:

Code:

Exec=/usr/bin/osso-xterm top

with:

Code:

Exec=root homunculus

Maybe you should use full path for the two commands.

Thanks

at my post above, in every sudo command (root commands),

type: echo "<command_that_is_root>" І sudo gainroot

for example:

Code:

echo "echo 1000000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq" | sudo gainroot

that is for kernel for power users to increase cpu max frequency to 1GHz.

you can also do some sudo commands like reboot, apt-get clean etc, but be carefull and read between the lines of the options.

thanks to No!No!No!Yes! and jakiman

I noticed that that piping it to sudo gainroot doesn't work for my friend's N900 for some reason. So I used following instead and it works. (works in my phone also and this is better a it returns no output)

sudo /usr/sbin/kernel-load /home/user/MyDocs/files/overclock_1000

(where overclock_1000 is a copied/modified file of the kernel power setting default profiles)

Mine was the same. Doing it this way works fine though.
