Adding Icons To The Opie Menu
« on: March 14, 2005, 03:36:35 pm »
I just put OE & Opie on my Zaurus 6000L this weekend and am very impressed so far. I already prefer it over the Java-heavy Sharp setup.

I do want to make a couple small changes to my setup though, and was wondering if anybody could point me in the right direction.
I want to create two icons on the O menu called "Connect WiFi" and "Disconnect WiFi" that just call the /bin/wifi.sh script I wrote with "on" or "off" as arguments.
I would also like to alter the Suspend entry on the menu to call "/bin/wifi.sh off" as a preliminary step, since suspending with WiFi active munges the connection.

I'd guess that there's a menu config file somewhere that links an icon and name to a program that gets called, but I can't seem to find it.

Thanks.

Install opie-sh and some opie-sh-apps and take a look. Basically adding an application means adding a .desktop file below /opt/QtPalmtop/apps/<section>/
