worked great , a couple of the icons were large , and it didnt resize them to 40... had to re-edit them in paintshop and they showed up fine.. except for and icon of a pirate flag that i use for gtk-gnutella... shows up as square instead of the correct rectangle shape. same with a couple others that arent even squares

Munky, for rectangular icons, make sure the file itself is a square size. The image on it can be rectangular and then it won't get distorted

I installed personall menu 0.6-3 on my nokia n800 from garage.maemo
I can open the settings dialog from the control panel but it does not replace any menus.
Am i missing something ?

look for the "panels" dialog. there, un-tick contacts, and select personal menu...

munky: It depends what program you want to open the text file in. Most editor will take a file as an argument from the command line. For example:

Code:

nano /home/user/text.txt
If you check of "Run in terminal" this will open the file for edit in nano. There are gui editors too, but you would have specify what one you want to use.

Munky: Here is the best I can do. Create an entry in personal menu with the following executable (assuming you saved your note in the "Document" folder of the internal storage, otherwise change the path):

Code:

dbus-send --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.osso_notes /com/nokia/osso_notes com.nokia.osso_notes.mime_open string:"file:///home/user/MyDocs/.documents/POF\ msgs.note.html"
It isn't the most glamorous solution, but it works!

Wow, what a great application, I just finished un-installing the Simple Launcher app. after just minutes with your app.

(I too was stumped on why it wouldn't give me the tick box in panels, you just need to un-tick the contacts one, as previously posted)

Definately a better UI menu system then the one provided, it's just a simple and clean UI.
