Just another question..
what is the right way to fix the functions for closing the applet? i
noticed that if i shutdown the cpu and i've got the applet running, it
freezes waiting for killing remaining process; after that i gotta shut
it down manually using the front button..
what is the close function i gotta call for closing applet rised up with
bonobo?
tnx again
