Re: Turning on Automatically when connected to power
Hi, I have my N810 booting straight into a desktop when I boot with the charger in. Changing the runlevel number seemed like the way to go but didn't work for one reason: mce checked to see if it was booted with the charger in; if so, then display the charger screen. This meant that it booted into the desktop, sure, but I would have to hold the power key first before the touchscreen and wifi were activated (and if you had a lock code, entering that then) so a straight change didn't work for me. So, thanks to fanoush, I changed the bootreason driver in the kernel to let me write whatever I wished to in it. (Patch is on the internet, but it's dodgy code unless you wish to clean it up...) So I added this to /mnt/initfs/linuxrc, before DSME starts: bootreason=`cat /proc/bootreason` if [ x$bootreason = xcharger ]; then echo pwr_key /proc/bootreason fi This way, DSME tells MCE that it has been started by holding the power key, and the linuxrc script thinks likewise so it boots from runlevel 2.

No, this will not solve it completely. The /proc/bootreason is probably checked in some places so it still acts in a strange ways unless /proc/bootreason is really changed as Faheem describes.

Hi all, This is for the N810. Is it possible to configure the device such that it will turn on automatically when it is connected to a power supply?

It actually boots up partially - the screen with the battery animation is running in something from /etc/init.d. I tried playing with it but didn't want to break anything, but it should be possible to intercept it either from the initrd or the base flash.
