Could you please post the output of

run as root.
Don't forget to kill it with CTRL-C afterwards.
It's also probably best to "restart" the whole status menu with

Code:

pkill -f /usr/bin/hildon-status-menu

once you're done.

Yep, that's on my to-do list too.

Also, it's currently eating to much battery.
Currently, the clock is not paused when, e.g., the screen is shut off.
So that's a major to-do as well.
Other things to do are, e.g., integration of the settings menu in the settings dialog instead of the status area pull down menu.

This looks good so far.
Next things to check are:

Code:

tail /etc/hildon-desktop/status-menu.plugins

Code:

ls -al /usr/lib/hildon-desktop/advanced-clock-plugin.py

Code:

ls -al /usr/share/applications/hildon-status-menu/advanced-clock-plugin.desktop

Please post the output here as well.

Latest update works fine for me, just FYI.

I figured out a few things by trial and error last night after I got off this forum, which I was going to post here when I came on today: I see Wonko already pointed out that you have to restart hildon-status-menu. I find killall hildon-status-menu works too, but I'll try the pskill one too, see what the difference is.

Meanwhile, I did notice a bug - or at least what may be a bug, unless this was the intent: Reboot/restart of the status menu doesn't save the clock you have selected before. So no matter what you select the next hildon-menu restart (reboots included obviously) sets it back to Decimal. This isn't too much of an issue - no rush to make it permanent if you even want to.

Also, I started experimenting through trial and error, and made my own clock ("Test Clock" - for obvious reasons). Nothing exciting yet, but I should be able to start making possibly useful clock styles soon.

Yes, that's indeed not the intended behavior.
The reason is simply that I didn't have the time yet to implement this properly.

Nice, am looking forward to see some custom clocks.

Meanwhile, I uploaded version 0.3.0-1 to extras-devel.
This version suspends the operation when the display turns off and resumes when the display is turned on again.
Consequently, the battery usage should be significantly reduced.

Furthermore, I added a missing dependency.
It would be nice if all of you who had problems so far could check if this version resolves the issue.
