thanks for the hint

The problem is to find a way to provide the user with a ready-to-go config for 
his phone. The daemon-configs contain only settings to make the daemon work on 
one specific phone. So the user can't really change the behaviour of the daemon 
with config settings as there is really only a correct one [works or not :) ] 
for each specific phone.

So a solution would be nice to keep the user from having to edit a config where 
he has no real choices and can only copy settings from a README :-)

Ideas?

Heiko
