great thread JorgeFX, but maybe you should update your first post with other helpful suggestions or methods such as a desktop shortcut solution mentioned by someone on page 3??

Will there be a package in devel or testing soon, or is there a step by step guide for linux noobs on how to install and use?
This is just what we need for the n900.

I got so tired of waiting..(during that time) I researched all kinds of ways to make debs(hour's upon hour's) and found a quick hack and slash way... Anyway here try this out works for me and should for you

# write the README file
cat > usr/share/doc/OptimizeN900-Packaged/README <<END
This package provides JorgeFX OptimizeN900 script and ossipena desktop file for the N900.
It put's OptimizeN900 script in /opt/, optimize-n900.desktop in /usr/share/applications/hildon/ and gives a shortcut.

Thank you guys!

END

EDIT:Please use new deb.. post #275

if you'd like just simply place it in your MyDocs
and open the terminal and run this command

Code:
sudo sh /home/user/MyDocs/OptimizeN900
and by the way the N900 is casesensitive
as for that it worked for me
if you want to make a widget out of it then just follow the steps in this tutorial http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=61709

discard the first step and just simply put a different title and change the command up there instead of the one provided in the tutorial

This is a minor update (from 0.1 to 0.2)

I

-Added "md5sums" check to the deb (the experts say I should)

-Change script's name from OptimizeN900.sh to OptimizeN900

-Put script in /usr/local/bin/ (instead of) /opt/

Now from terminal just type root then OptimizeN900 (it's case sensitive)
and it should run (make sure you have rootsh installed)

Btw.. The shortcut still works and you don't have to uninstall the first one(it removes it self)

Edit: 2morrow will add depends.. (Rootsh) well later 2day

Thanks,

So it was a good idea to leave the first one up there

Well 0.2 is for those who would like to see the script in progress from a simple "root" "OptimizeN900".
It beats "root" "cd /opt" "OptimizeN900.sh" by one command

Ok all is fixed version 0.5 with a new spin

Notice: I will not do a next release until i can(or someone can help me) fix the issue of the icon not showing up on installation

Quickfix: Just run the script once and for the shortcut switch themes back and forth

I try to edit my post-installation script "postinst"
With This
#!/bin/sh
gtk-update-icon-cache -f /usr/share/icons/hicolor
but no cigar

Option: killall hildon-home #NOTE: Killing the hildon-home process can erase all widgets and that is why it is disabled.... I know we don't want that to happen

And still accepting suggestions,ideas,.png's on icon(48x48).
And still wanna upload(pm that info please)i read the wiki but a bit confused still.

thanks

No matter what I do, your Icon does not show up?

Which is strange, because when I create a desktop file my Icons show up??
