You have to change: "Application" to "Applications" (note the "s" at the end) in your .desktop files. That should make them visible again.

I think I just got used to flawless updates of the testing branch until now. From my personal point of view, updating only selected packages isn't exactly the right thing to do because of the dependencies that exist but are not described in the package (most notably GNOME being packed that way on my testing desktop distro). The other reason I wrote this post was to inform the package maintainers that something went wrong and the "Home" app doesn't see the .desktop files or something during the update destroyed them.

Re: [FSO] latest upgrade disabled my phone
Dear Rhn, I don't know what's wrong, but let me suggest that you do not unconditionally opkg update && opkg update when you're on an unstable distribution. In contrast to Debian, where millions of eyes are looking, an Openmoko unstable distribution is _really_ unstable. I suggest individually updating packages if you think there's interesting fixes for you. Sorry I can't be of more help.

[FSO] latest upgrade disabled my phone
Hi Today, opkg upgrade behaved wildly from the very beginning. After issuing the command the first time, the screen went blank (major downloading had taken place, ut I was not paying attention to it); I thought it maybe stalled so I did opkg upgrade once more - it upgraded fso-gpsd among other things. I hoped that I'd receive a new batch of fixes (notably for gps which couldn't get a fix after previous upgrade), but the result is a bit different. I didn't have a chance to check it out, because the device locked all the doors and windows from me - leaving me with zhone, Illume taskbar and the Home application with no icons. I can't open a terminal (no icons), I can't log in through SSH (usb0 doesn't show up on the desktops as it previously did). What other trick should I try to be able to fix it? I don't really want to flash the device again... Cheers rhn ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
