Adding XMPP account: $ mc-tool add gabble/jabber xmpp string:account= string:password= $ mc-tool list $ mc-tool enable gabble/jabber/<*> (* see what comes here from printout of previous command) Switching to root (with some restrictions): $ devel-su (Password: rootme) Customising launchers for the app menu: App launchers for all users reside in /usr/share/applications/ and have .desktop identifier. They define the icon used, command executed and other stuff. App launchers for user reside in ~/.local/share/applications/ To remove launcher from app menu: # echo "NotShowIn=X-MeeGo;" >> /usr/share/applications/someapp.desktop Launchers can also point to URL:s rather than executable files. For example: $ cat /usr/share/applications/youtube.desktop Customizing quick launch bar: Symlinks to quick launch bar's launchers reside in ~/.local/share/applications/ If you replace a symlink there with a new one, you also have to edit its reference in ~/.config/meegotouchhome-nokia/launcherbuttons.data to point into quick launch bar (by default new additions, despite the filename, are pointing to apps menu). Changes to quick launch bar take effect when you restart meegotouchhome process. # killall meegotouchhome Adding new selections to display timeout settings: List settings: $ gconftool-2 -a /system/osso/dsm/display Add new values (example for adding 3 hours selection): $ gconftool-2 --type list --list-type int --set /system/osso/dsm/display/possible_display_dim_timeouts [15,30,60,120,300,10800] There's lots of other stuff in gconf too: $ gconftool-2 -R /system Managing default applications: ~/.local/share/applications/defaults.list An example which adds torrential as default app for opening bittorrent files: $ echo "application/x-bittorrent=torrential_harmattan.desktop" >> ~/.local/share/applications/defaults.list To add a new repository (example): # echo "deb http://harmattan-dev.nokia.com/ harmattan/sdk free non-free" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
