I'm using load-applet-run, it works as you described so your original post seems correct to me.

I've been trying to redownload gnuite's applet for use with a N800 lately, but all I get is this error :

Server Error

I also downloaded the 2006 version from gnuite's "770 hacks" page, installed it and rebooted, but nothing shows up... I had this on my 770 and really miss it :-)

load-applet-run? It seems to be in respository.maemo.org mistral free.. at least that's what 'apt-cache policy load-applet-run' tells me.
http://gronmayer.com/n800/repos/ says it's in both of these: (0.4.3-2 is the version I'm using without problems on my N800):
http://repository.maemo.org/extras
mistral | free non-free
load-applet-run (v. 0.4.3-2)
http://repository.maemo.org/contrib
mistral | free
load-applet-run (v. 0.4.3-2)

Well, I only have Bora repos on my N800 ATM, so it doesn't show up in the app manager... I was trying to get it from the maemo.org download page linked a few posts back :
http://downloads.maemo.org/product/load-applet-runn/

Probably got broken in the great maemo.org revamp. I am unable to find that applet again on the new site by conventional means - that search function is incredibly broken too.

Okay, hold fire... it's just me being dumb. I actually had it installed okay, but just now discovered that "new" dialog buried deep inside the control panel, that lets you control what icons appear in the taskbar. Didn't exist in OS2006 - remember, this is a diehard 770 caveman only just discovering the marvels of OS2007 ! (only for a few days/weeks too, until OS2008 comes out :-)

Hi, thanks for all the input.
I hadn't time to play with my tablet much in the last days because of the medica exhibition/fair where I'm working right now.

Probably have time to play again at monday.

I know this thread is a little old, but I need some info. I have saved my script, and am not trying to add it to .profile but I am not sure what that means. Where do I pu the PATH line?
