Hej.
Yes I know, nobody uses SES, get Alarmed, etc.
No! SES is so much easier for automated profile changes. I've been using it since March. I love it.

Yesterday I reflashed my n900. Upon reinstalling all the applications, SES was missing its appmenu icon. You can't start SES anymore. I tried purging and reinstalling multiple times - nothing.

It definitely still works because after being installed, it still executed the timed events (put my n900 into silent and offline mode tonight). Yet there is no way to access the GUI.

I am fully aware that SES isn't as popular as Alarmed, but could somebody please look into this? It would be a shame to let an otherwise fine little tool die because of a flawed install.

No source code it seems - some kind of QT conflict so the package was removed.

Installing it from the repository gives me this:

Code:
dchky:~# dpkg --listfiles ses
/.
/usr
/usr/sbin
/usr/bin
/usr/share
/usr/share/doc
/usr/share/doc/ses
/usr/share/doc/ses/copyright
/usr/share/doc/ses/README.Debian
/usr/share/doc/ses/changelog.Debian.gz
I can see why it's missing an icon : )

I have no explanation for why it is working okay for you - I'm kind of guessing your N900 has cached a different version of it?

huh, there's nothing in there?
Entirely possible I was still running an older version... now how would one get this fine program back up?

Damnit... this is beginning to look way more complicated than I'd feared.

SES and Alarmed are working with the
Alarm Framework. All events are put in
/var/cache /alarmd/alarm_queue.ini
Even if you don't have SES installed anymore, the events are still
active and will be executed by alarmd.

regards
Nicolai

Thanks for the link and info Nicolai - it looks like it'd be fairly easy to build a similar interface with GTK.
