 Can anybody tell how an app can intercept the camera slider opening

Sadly, currently the only way to stop the default camera app for getting
such events would be to actually stop the camera app as I think it gets
the lens cover status from HAL (and I suppose you will not stop the HAL
service for that ;) ).

The easiest way right now would be to run the command (as root, I
suppose):
$ dsmetool -k /usr/bin/camera-ui

Once you are done, you can start the camera app again with:
$ dsmetool -t /usr/bin/camera-ui

I hope this helps.

   Hi,
  
   by default the N900 camera application offers two resolutions. One with
   aspect ratio 16:10 and one with 4:3. I would like to get an aspect ratio
   of 3:2 (classic 35mm film).
  
   Did anyone find a config file or gconf key to change that? It's not
   super super important, but if you have informations I would be very
   happy to hear them.
  Currently supported resolutions by Camera UI are hardcoded in
  gdigicam. See ext/gst-camerabin/gdigicam-camerabin.c around line 53
  onwards.
 
 Thank you, I found it. Along with the message FIXME: This should be
 customizable somehow :)
...

Yes, well, you know, there is no time for everything ...

We have it in the roadmap but we are open to contributions, though ;)
