That sure sounds like a hackney way - calling a reference to a reference binary with a .desktop shortcut. Why on earth would you be doing that?

From SystemUI? That doesn't sound correct. The D-Bus way to launch a service given its name is the StartServiceByName method. Obviously, this being an upstream method, this is free from the X-Osso-Service Nokia stuff; hell, that method only looks at the *.service files, not the desktop files. Unless SystemUI uses Hildon Desktop's LaunchApplication method - which I'm sure it doesn't (actually I'm certain it doesn't - my N800 can also launch services through SystemUI and the Hildon Desktop on the N800 doesn't support the LaunchApplication method) - then it shouldn't look at desktop files

EDIT: Although I don't have an N900 anymore, I did have success running applications without having a terminal window showing

Did you use HAM to install the latest update? If not, did you reboot afterwards?

Interesting; I've not had that. Can you point me at the bug report?

Which would explain why that particular aspect of the build is not listed as a feature and has to be explicitly enabled.

Oh, yes, that's a stability disaster. Or you could, y'know, not use that feature if the black screen is so heinous ;-p

Yes, it is, and it needs to be fixed immediately!

Joking aside, I do appreciate the CSSU and all the efforts so far. I may consider after all joining the testers once I've got the other N900 with me. Heck, even that bug, which I linked you to, isn't that big of deal, since it is using a new rotation-method. I've yet to notice it as that "critical" in the normal ones, if I recall right.

Your problem looks like the icon either didn't get saved correctly, or got corrupted/deleted/moved. Was it like this from when you first installed the update of the CSSU that created the applet, or did it break after something else?

Speaking of the rotation applet, I can totally understand why MohammadAG went the status menu route. I spent the last couple of days trying to do a power key menu version. It is on the verge of impossible to do neatly. Oh, it can be done alright, but either a terminal window has to open, or you have to have a blatantly visible app menu entry - because the nokia provided dbus way of launching a program doesn't seem to recognize the .desktop files that have NoDisplay=true set. I haven't tried seeing what happens if you add them to the exclude list in the hildon.menu file though, but I highly doubt you'd want to fiddle with that when installing/updating the CSSU, as then you have to make sure to make provisions in the preinst/postinst/prerm/postrm scripts for Categorize, ApMeFo, and manual editions of the menu structure.
Thanks for the help me
I know very little English
Just thank you and i say

In case you are not aware, Smoku is reimplementing OSS clones for the clock and battery status plugins for Cordia

I hope they could be reused for the CSSU as well.
