Title: now using KO/Pi, how to "disable" datebook?
Post by: xarope on February 20, 2004, 03:49:45 am
Now that I\'m happy with KO/Pi, does anybody know how I stop datebook from springing up with the preset alarms (i.e. where I\'ve put alarms to remind me of appointments etc)?

I thought maybe I could just mv datebook and ln -s to korganizer in /home/QtPalmtop/bin, but lo and behold, datebook, addressbook and others are symlinks to quickexec, which is found in /usr/QtPalmtop.rom/bin.

I found this in google (cached, since lists.zaurus.com is not around):

You won\'t find a datebook or addressbook binary in the ROM because the
builtin Sharp apps all use QuickExec to speed up execution. QuickExec keeps running in the background and keeps common parts of all apps loaded in memory. When a QuickExec app is launched, it simply loads the application library from /home/QtPalmtop/binlib for all the application specific code to execute. This is different to Fast Load. Fast Load keeps the entirety of an app running in the background.

So I can unlink it, but I don\'t think that stops quickexec from launching the /home/QtPalmtop/binlin/datebook.so.

Any thoughts?

You could manually turn them off inside datebook or you could just remove the DTM files (you mith want to archive them first).

What version of KO/PI are you running? KO/PI opens on my Z when an alarm goes off. I seem to remember this happening to me on an earlier version. I\'m using 1.6.1a. It has been working fine on both Cacko & tKc ROMs.

If you are going to use KO instead of datebook, why keep any of the data in datebook at all?  In datebook, under the menus, goto Data -] Delete all...   this will clear out all of your datebook entries.

Well, since I\'m forced to use winblows @ work, I sync with the sharp PIM, then export the ics file into KO/PI. So that DTM data still comes in handy.

Couldn\'t you just sync (import) with the desktop, extract the ical file, delete the DTM content and sync kopi with the ical file?
