Hard to know which one is the "right" one since they are both running on meego images and the MTF docs refer to applifed as the control mechanism for pre-start apps. Can you please explain the difference, or point to documentation that describes them both and under what conditions we would want to use one over the other? IIRC, older sample configs for applifed had a "call" entry for starting the Nokia call manager app, so I figured that was the "Right Thing" (TM) to do ;) > I took the branch, but had to make a few changes to make make it work > in N900. > > 1) the dialer.desktop file changes as described in the README.txt are > not working.

I thought you showed it was working, but maybe I didn't get all the patches merged? > 2) /etc/prestart/nokia.conf needed the following to start the dialer > automatically. > <application name="dialer" service="com.meego.dialer" priority="5" /> Yes, this was known, but since applifed does not read additional config files and is hard coded to read the nokia.conf file, we can't really add our own. Likewise, it would be bad form to modify this file as part of a post-install script. So do you have suggestions on solving it? Ideally we should file a bug with applifed to make this config dir based or at least able to do something like "#include /etc/prestart/services.d/*.conf". That is if we continue to use applifed. > 3) With pre-started dialer, i could never receive incoming call, as > no alert dialog is shown. I am still investigating to see what is the > issue. Michael, any comments on this one too? Anyway, all of this is why it's still a branch ;) Shane.. _______________________________________________ MeeGo-handset mailing list MeeGo-handset@lists.meego.com http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-handset
