Yeah, I know, documentation sucks. I am not sure either, if that's the way to go. But it's an idea. I would like to figure out the details, too. Please, anybody who has the time and patience, play around with dbus and see what happens. > i've followed the instructions on your site As if that's a guarantee for anything :-) I am just describing my setup there.
