Re: Problem with openmoko-panel apps

[Alexander Syring]

I've tested your homezone program and if I was logged in before the homezone 
prog was started i get nothing wether I am in homezone nor I am not in 
homezone. But when I first start the program an then log in to provider I get 
a response from program. 
That means (I think) the program only looks on reconnection and not on actual 
connection for the requested data.

Could you post a link that I test the program too?

if the applet is not visible after creating it does not work.
so simple show the icon, and add a timer that hides it after x secs

matchbox-panel-2 and starting manually from om all looks fine.

small addition, and correction.

its also works with the session file if i do a --start-applet instead of 
a --end-applet in fact, the applet seams to work only with 
--start-applet and no other applet in the panel..


i think its some problem with the width of the applet, but i really 
don't know how to change that.

Problem with openmoko-panel apps

[smurfy - phil]

Hello,

i just created a new panel app, it compiles and i am able to create a 
ipkg file and install it on my freerunner

i modded the /etc/matchbox/session file to start the applet at startup.

after a xserver restart (or even reboot) the applet does not appear. 
after a closer look i see a gap between two other applets if i switch 
the condition of showing / hiding the applet i see the gap go away and 
reappear. so the applet itself works, but somehow does not display its icon.


and here comes the strange part: if i do a "matchbox-panel-2 
--end-applets openmoko-panel-hz"  in the OM terminal i receive a 
additional panel with a fully working applet (i can see the icon and all 
works fine).


if i add the line to the matchbox session file i also get another panel, 
but no icon. (i guess its the same like the normal panel problem but no 
other icons to see the gap :D)


so what could be the problem with the display?

i also tried compiling the applet with and without 
--enable-maintainer-mode (but i don't know what that changes anyway :D)


if someone give me a hint?

thanks

Phil
