Just had a long debugging session with help from Ricardo Salveti, and he provided a few workarounds that have helped getting qmlscene to be runnable from the terminal (or adb shell).
So, for the record, here are a few points to keep in mind if you want to do this: 1) If you are root, run "su - phablet" so you get into the right user environment 2) Install http://paste.ubuntu.com/6151324/ at ~/.local/applications/desktop/test.desktop 3) Run: qmlscene --desktop_file_hint=~/.local/share/applications/test.desktop yourfile.qml Note that for some strange reason, running qmlscene without the desktop hint file flag was corrupting the environment in a way that is not yet well understood, and after that it would stop working altogether until a reboot. That made the problem specially tricky to workaround. gustavo @ http://niemeyer.net -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
