[pkg-fso-maint] [Debian] openmoko-panel-plugin 0.6-1 and GSM resource (was Re: Broken installation)

[Luca Capello]

Hi Sebastian!

I moved the discussion to the smartphones-userland mailing list since it
is no more related to pure Debian packaging work, please continue there!

First of all, thank you!

Then, openmoko-panel-plugin_0.6-1 works with frameworkd milestone4 on
Debian, but I experience again startup problems, but with an error
different than the one at:

  http://lists.linuxtogo.org/pipermail/smartphones-userland/2008-November/000357.html

This time the error message is:

Since openmoko-panel-plugin works if launched once Zhone is fully
started, I tried to put (again) some sleep time before starting
openmoko-panel-plugin and indeed this solves the problem:
=====
debian-gta02:~# cat .xsession
#!/bin/sh
trayer --edge top &
sleep 12 && openmoko-panel-plugin &
zhone &
exec matchbox-window-manager -use_titlebar no -use_cursor no
debian-gta02:~#
=====

FWIW, I tested with less sleep time, but with no success.

And I should add that the installation I use ATM is far from being a
"default" one, since it is the one I use when testing new versions for
the Debian packages.  While I do not think this should change anything,
it should be noted as well.

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
