Re: N900 Video focus and led light, python script
 

Try playing with the widgets, I dont know if thats any help but it started working for me after that for some weird reason.

Did you try these in terminal?

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get install python-hildondesktop hildon-desktop-python-loader python-gtk2 python-dbus
pkill -f /usr/bin/hildon-status-menu

The correct way to make lfocus install and work properly (based on experiance)
 

Hello everyone,

I am a new registered memeber at maemo.org, although i have been always a viewer of thsi website.

First I would like to thank "m2cm2c" for this great program and the ability he gave us to have a better imaging n900 device.

Based on my experiance, the following are the best ways to make lfocus work properly (through installation and making it appear in the bar menu):

1- Install Rootsh (if not yet installed)
2- open xterminal
3- type: sudo gainroot
4- type: apt-get update
5- type: apt-get upgrade
6- type: apt-get install python-hildondesktop
7- type: apt-get install hildon-desktop-python-loader
*after performing all the above steps:
8- install lfocus latest version lfocus_0.509-1
9- reboot the device
10- open camera lens (then tap once on the screen)
11- tap on the bar menu ( where the signal, clock, ... is located)

And their u have it, working as it should be.
m2cm2c and other users may have mentioned those steps previously, although what i wanted to do is put them in a chronological order for those not quite acquanted with such procedure.

Thank you
