Re: [Announce] Advanced Clock Plugin
 

Hmmm... Well, first thing in my experience, is reboot. Sometimes it actually solves some problems, when you don't know what process to kill, but something needs to be killed/restarted.

Does AppMan / FApMan / XTerm give you any error messages when you try to install? (Particularly the X-Term error messages may be the most useful.)

Re: [Announce] Advanced Clock Plugin
 

How do you change the configuration from another application? An error in my next clock plugin that I'm working on causes it to crash on startup, with the result that I can't change it to another clock.

Re: [Announce] Advanced Clock Plugin
 

There is few bug I guess ;
When I reboot my N900 , the advance clock settings goes to it's default and doesn't stay what I had set to. If you enable "Seconds" then chances are your N900 will be Laggy.

Re: [Announce] Advanced Clock Plugin
 

Just so that you're not discouraged Wonko: With the latest version, I have neither of the bugs ifraaz is experiencing. Seconds tick just fine for me, never had lag, nor has anyone else indicated slowness (though I can believe they may extremely slightly increase battery consumption, if you keep screen on for long). Also, I just rebooted and my settings stayed the way I had set them before shutting off, which makes testing changes to clock styles so much more enjoyable, since you don't have to change your settings every hildon-status-menu restart.

ifraaz: Can you list what else you might have running in the background? Do you overclock? What clock style are you using? In what font? What settings otherwise?

Skykooler: I'm not ignoring you, I just don't know the first thing about making a .deb, or running it in autobuilder, and I haven't looked through all the code for Advanced Clock Plugin on my N900 for a few versions now, so I don't know where exactly the new one stores the settings.

Re: [Announce] Advanced Clock Plugin
 

also ifraaz R U running version 0.6.0-0 ?????

edit: my settings are saved after reboot also,

Re: [Announce] Advanced Clock Plugin
 

My bad, forgot to remove the .svn directories. :o
This is the reason for the problems on installation.
Actually, this problem does only occur if another package had been installed before which has the same issue. ;)
Just uploaded version 0.6.0-1 which fixes this problem.

Re: [Announce] Advanced Clock Plugin
 

Skykooler, I found what you're looking for: Change the clock set as default with either gconftool or gconftool-2.

It's in (from the GConf perspective, the actual paths are something convoluted, which I found once but don't remember the location of right now) /apps/Maemo/advanced_clock_plugin.

So you'd use, say:

The -t tells you what type of value is being put in (boolean, string, integer, etc), and the -s value sets it. My "Test Clock" comes back as TestClock in there, and I used the original Digital Clock back in version 1 as a template, so they should be the same. You can find where it pulls the name from by comparing the name gconf gives for the currently set clock name, and where that name appears in that clock's python code. Then go to the same place in a clock you know works, and see what's that called, and set that into the gconf value above.

Also, -g tells you what the value of the entry you give the path to is, -a tells you what the values are of everything within a certain gconf folder.

Oh ; So there was a upgrade for it . Thanks f2thank I just upgraded it .

yes i overclock . but right now its on default (600mhz) .
my custom kernel gone since i was doin a multiboot to NITDroid . before was 500-900mhz and I still had Lag while I had "Seconds" enabled. ;)

Running on background ? Bet , same things as you are running ;)

I am still experiencing the same thing in this version as well . I am using DecimalClock, Twelve hour mode , fill , show alarm indc and have got Sans as its font and it works fine , but still settings reverts back when I shut down and turn on . and when the "Seconds" is enabled I find it laggy again . Try it for your self .
