I think you can use udev to launch scripts on USB insert event. Adjusting volume can be done either by restoring whole alsa state file using alsactl -f /path/to/alsa.state restore or it should be possible to use something like "amixer set Master 5%+" - you'd have to figure out correct control names. > ps @ radek: what does the Suspend.service actually launch so you get the > shutdown/restart menu? Hmm i think this menu is just one dialog in qpe process. It's not application.

GTA04/ QtMoKo v57 WLAN issue
Hi, Radek, You stated bevore that You can not connect to WiFi any longer. I have same issue here. I tried this [1] and, maybe I figured the problem out: As soon as You try to connect to disired network QtMoKo copies the required data to "/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf". Please look at his file, here in mine the "psk" is unencrypted! As soon as I cange this, according to [1], I can connect to WiFi- network with console command in "*3. Connecting to WPA / WPA2 encrypted wifi network"! Then it stays connected! Maybe this is the issue.* One more thing: my phone shows device name "wlan3", but this should not be a problem..

You could build a script that reads /proc/interrupts, and start another script to launch you application. There is however no way to distinguish between a "normal" press and one to launch your app. You can use a simple timing loop to check how long the aux key is held, and only start your application when aux is pressed for more then x seconds.

I'm afraid I can't remember this, even though I know I have looked at it
in the past. I think QtMoko just supports two press durations: short
and long.

Sorry, no idea - although this is certainly something I've wanted to.

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] themedhomescreen: Support TaskManager/showRunningTasks()
as an action
TaskManager/showRunningTasks() pops up a window with 4 tabs: Favorites,
Recent, Frequent and Running, with the Running tab showing initially.
I think this is more useful than the Favorites/select() action, which
only provides the content of the Favorites tab, and would like to bind
my home page Star icon to it. Step 1 for that is to make it
available as a bindable action.
