Hi all,
because I was asking for it several times and didn't find anything here
is a small applet for whatever WM, written in python/GTk.
It is *very*much* work in progress, mind that I have never before:
- programed in python
- programed an applet
- used dbus/hal
- programed pygtk
But well, one afternoon, several examples from the web, and the plasma
applet of Eva did help to get even the HAL interface-beast more or less
tamed.
Problems:
- it does not work as applet at the moment, no idea why, maybe someone
can help here
- no configuration can be done
- sometimes strange error messages because the hso device disappears
slowly after disabling sony-wwan, and then HAL ships some errors
Howto:
Put the rfkill-applet.py somewhere, and call it
python rfkill-applet.py -d
do NOT forget the -d or it will not start.
If you want to work on the applet thingy, you have to put the attached
files as follows:
/usr/bin/rfkill-applet.py
/usr/lib/bonobo/servers/rfkill-applet.server
and then restart your gnome session (kde?) and it should be possible to
select the applet, but loading doesn't work
If someone wants to help a bit that would be great!!!
Best wishes
Norbert
