I tried to change clocks, change font, change color, almost anything, even turned off the phone and turned on again, but still, it did not show up.
Do I need somthing else beside the package?
Well, apparently I didn't include all necessary dependencies.
You should not need to restart nor to install anything else except Advanced Clock Plugin.
If you need to do anything special to get it work it's most likely that I messed something up.

I just uploaded version 0.11.1 to extras-devel.
Could all who had problems with the clock being "hidden" so far try if this fixes the issue?
If you still encounter problems try running (as root):
Code:
DEBUG_OUTPUT=1 /usr/bin/hildon-status-menu
This should provide more meaningful output of whats going wrong or is missing.
By the way, if you run the command as written above you need to manually kill the running process via CTRL-C.

I added a "No Clock" style to 0.11.1 which simply disables the clock display.
The implementation side is very much straight forward.

@Mentalist Traceur
Nice to see you got your first clock up and running.


Edit:
I'd also like to explicitly mention a special clock style I added some versions ago.
This is a binary clock which indicates the alarm time by drawing the circle outline of the alarm time in a distinct color.
Currently, this is only implemented for the binary clock.
If you like I could add something similar for the BcdClock.

...
All the recent instances of a missing clock I have had have been due to
various misconfigurations and coding errors while developing another clock.
Everything seemed to be mostly in place with 0.11.0,
with the single exception I note that you might want to consider hard coding

Code:
 pkill -f /usr/bin/hildon-status-menu
into the point where we close the settings dialogue so the
system has a chance to reload whichever script it is running.

Or not - I am not a python programmer until yesterday

Looks to me like it has arrived -
Where do we vote it into extras-testing?

The only caveat I see with this program is if a person
uses 'display seconds' (which I do always) and there is any kind
of issue with the particular clock (which I have done in trial and error)
is that it can get interesting - but that is merely a self-inflicted problem.

Cheers.

I hope this version finally fixes all dependency issues people were still having.
If so, it is also ready to go from my point of view.

Please do not just simply vote but take your time and check it against the quality assurance checklist first:
http://wiki.maemo.org/Extras-testing/QA_Checklist

If you think everything is ok, you can vote for it here:
http://maemo.org/packages/package_in...ugin/0.11.1-1/

@Duy2anh

Just installed via Application Manager from extras-devel about 20 minutes ago

I installed, it didn't work, I removed. Now I just reinstall, it still didn't show up

use x-term to remove the packages....
apt-get purge the packages so u can fully remove the packages before re-installing to the latest version....


also thanks to the developer for adding "no clock" in the latest version....

I waiting for the App Manager to update, it takes sometimes
How ho you check version of the Advance Clock Plugin? Before installing I could see it when pressing the "Detail" button (which was 0.11.0)

PS: The Update check sees no update for the clock-plugin!

PPS: I tried to remove and reinstall again, but the details show that the advance-clock-plugin is v0.11.0, with hildon-destop-python-loader 0.1.0-1maemo3 and pytho-hildondesktop 0.1.0-1 maemo3.

There is not yet 0.11.1-1 version!


@ pusak gaoq
I just did a complete reflash with fiasco image and eMMC today, and then installed the app, and it did not show up even after turning off and on, so I don't think there is any leftover to remove.

i got a small problem updating from v0.09 to v0.11 but fixed by uninstalling the old version and using

Code:
apt-get remove advanced-clock-plugin-settings-ui
and then installed v.0.11

excellent clock! many timezones to keep an eye to another country's time
