Applet: Bluetooth .desktop file: /usr/share/applications/hildon-status-bar/hildon-status-bar-bluetooth.desktop Icon: qgn_list_bluetooth_visible full path: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/26x26/hildon/qgn_list_bluetooth_visible.png new icon file: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/26x26/hildon/qgn_list_bluetooth_copy.png what I did: copied the original bluetooth icon png and renamed it set the Icon variable to: qgn_list_bluetooth_copy Result: a blank space next to the text Bluetooth where the icon should be. Interpretation: Icon files not present on the system when it was flashed are not readable by the applet list.
Applet 1: Bluetooth .desktop file 1: /usr/share/applications/hildon-status-bar/hildon-status-bar-bluetooth.desktop Icon 1: qgn_list_bluetooth_visible Applet 2: Display .desktop file 2: /usr/share/applications/hildon-status-bar/hildon-status-bar-display.desktop Icon 2: qgn_list_displaybright4 what I did: changed value of Icon1 (in .desktop1) to the same as Icon2 (from .desktop2) Result: The icon changes to Icon2, as expected. Interpretation: Icon files that are already present on the system or are in use by other applets can be read normally by any applet, and the Icon variable in the .desktop files DOES affect the icon displayed.
Applet 1: Bluetooth .desktop file 1: /usr/share/applications/hildon-status-bar/hildon-status-bar-bluetooth.desktop Icon 1: qgn_list_bluetooth_visible full path 1: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/26x26/hildon/qgn_list_bluetooth_visible.png Applet 2: Display .desktop file 2: /usr/share/applications/hildon-status-bar/hildon-status-bar-display.desktop Icon 2: qgn_list_displaybright4 full path 2: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/26x26/hildon/qgn_list_displaybright4.png what I did: replaced the png file from fullpath1 with the file from fullpath2 Result: The bluetooth icon does not change at all. Interpretation: The applet list does not actually get its images from the file system, but possibly caches them somewhere in memory we can't access (similar to the first boot image, for those familiar with that system). Note that I am really only speculating what kind of @&#*ed up stuff is going on here...

It is: http://maemo.org/development/documen...n_package.html
In a yellow note at the end of the document
couple of questions..
please lemme know of any good tutorial on creating .deb's that are gonna require dependencies.. and a .install file, i think i got it.. but maemo had me bouncing between a few different sites.. just wanna make sure i get this right, cuz the user's gonna need ruby-maemo and becomeroot packages i believe.. maybe a few others.. definitely wanna make it as easy as possible for the end user
icons, i've changed some stuff in the .desktop file for it to load up an icon i put in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon i've also tried /usr/share/icons/hicolor/26x26/hildon but to no avail.. it's a transparent png.. but maybe i didnt save it the right size or something, any help on this would be appreciated..
also is it right to just have Icon=blackjack in the .desktop or would a full path be better/doable?
thanks!
