=== dbus-scripts daemon options ===
 
-
 
-
==== Running dbus-scripts on the session bus ====
 
-
 
-
By default, the dbus-scripts daemon listens on the system message bus, which reports system events but not those from the user session. If you want to access events such as an application being launched, you'll need to configure the daemon to listen to the session bus as well. You'll probably want to run a second instance of dbus-scripts without breaking the one on the system bus.
 
-
 
-
Ignore <code>/etc/init.d/dbus-scripts</code> and <code>/etc/default/dbus-scripts</code> as these would seem to have been superseded by upstart. Make a copy of <code>/etc/event.d/dbus-scripts</code> as <code>/etc/event.d/dbus-scripts-session</code> and edit it so your <code>/etc/event.d/dbus-scripts-session</code> will look like this:
 
-
 
-
<source lang="text">
 
-
Nokia-N900:~# cat /etc/event.d/dbus-scripts
 
-
description "dbus-scripts-session"
 
-
author "Graham Cobb <g+770@cobb.uk.net>"
 
-
 
-
start on started hildon-desktop
 
-
#stop on stopping hildon-desktop
 
-
stop on starting shutdown
 
-
 
-
console none
 
-
 
-
pre-start script
 
-
        /usr/bin/run-standalone.sh /usr/sbin/waitdbus session
 
-
end script
 
-
 
-
exec run-standalone.sh /usr/sbin/dbus-scripts --session
 
-
 
-
respawn
 
-
</source>
 
-
 
-
and you can then configure dbus-scripts with statements such as
 
-
 
-
<source lang="text">
 
-
#:Browser launched
 
-
/usr/bin/onbrowser * * com.nokia.HildonDesktop.AppMgr LaunchApplication browser
 
-
</source>
 
-
 
-
to react to, in this example, the browser being started.
 
-
 
-
==== The incredibly useful --debug flag ====
 
-
 
-
The --debug flag is essential for looking at what's going on if you plan to write your own scripts. Run "dbus-scripts --debug" in a terminal and then perform whatever actions on the phone, to see all the events you can process using dbus-scripts. To see events on the session bus, make that "dbus-scripts --debug --session" (but you will need to run it through <code>run-standalone.sh</code>). For example:
 
-
 
-
<pre>
 
-
sudo dbus-scripts --debug
 
-
sudo /usr/bin/run-standalone.sh dbus-scripts --debug --session
 
-
</pre>
 
-
 
-
== Usage, tips and tricks ==
 
-
 
-
dbus-scripts does not reread edited configuration automatically. After editing (or creating/removing) a configuration file, you need to restart it.
 
-
 
-
On N900 it can easily be done with
 
-
killall dbus-scripts
 
-
since it is then restarted by upstart. On 770/N800/N810, use
 
-
/etc/init.d/dbus-scripts restart
 
-
 
-
The package dbus-scripts-settings contains a script <code>logit.sh</code> which simply logs its parameters to the file <code>/media/mmc1/logit.log</code>. If you want to find out if some event generates D-Bus events, and what configuration line to use for it, create a file in <code>/etc/dbus-scripts.d/</code> containing:
 
-
 
-
/usr/bin/logit.sh *
 
-
 
-
And generate the event. Reading the log file will show you all the D-Bus activity.
 
== Limitations ==
== Limitations ==
-
For the moment dbus-scripts will only pass simple D-Bus type arguments like string, boolean and int32 et uint32 to your scripts. You will miss variant, array and all other complex type arguments. So if you want to play, for example, with text of received SMS, you can't yet use dbus-scripts as the text is an array of bytes.

=== Enable tethering when connecting to Bluetooth PAN ===
+
-
 
+
-
Tethering is a bit of a hassle in Maemo. Most people refer to JoikuSpot, which is definitely the most comfortable solution, but it's not free. So, why not use builtin (or easily installable) functionality to use the N900 as a modem?
+
-
 
+
-
For this script to work, you need to have at least bluetooth-dun and iptables installed. Possibly other packages too, please test and correct.

=== Set MSN (pecan) to stay offline when disconnected ===
+
-
 
+
-
Since MSN allows only one client connection at a time, signing into MSN from the N900 disconnects it on my desktop PC, and vice versa.
+
-
 
+
-
Pidgin on my desktop PC handles this gracefully by disabling the account until I manually connect it. msn-pecan, on the other hand, helpfully auto-reconnects on its own authority and fails to respect my disabling auto-connect via mc-tool; if the requested status remains as "available", it reconnects, and that disconnects Pidgin on my desktop again. Grr.
+
-
 
+
-
You need an instance of dbus-scripts '''on the session bus''' for this one (see above), then you can do the following:
+
-
 
+
-
==== /etc/dbus-scripts.d/dbus-scripts-settings ====
+
-
<source lang="text">
+
-
#:MSN (pecan) disconnected (session bus)
+
-
/usr/bin/offmsn * * org.freedesktop.DBus ReleaseName org.freedesktop.Telepathy.Connection.pecan.msn_pecan.*
+
-
</source>
+
-
==== /usr/bin/offmsn ====
+
-
 
+
-
<source lang="bash">
+
-
#!/bin/sh
+
-
# If we got disconnected from MSN (eg by signing in via Pidgin on desktop PC) then set it offline until further notice
+
-
mc-tool list | grep "pecan/msn" | awk {'print "mc-tool request "$1" offline"'} | sh
+
-
</source>

=== Adjust Google Voice settings based on network location ===
+
-
 
+
-
I use this script to enable and disable various phones so that my office phone doesn't auto-answer when I'm not there, and my home phone doesn't bother my family when I'm at the office.
+
-
 
+
-
To run this script, you will need to install [http://code.google.com/p/pygooglevoice/ pygooglevoice].  Depending on the version of pygooglevoice you have, you may also have to change LOGIN in /usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/googlevoice/settings.py to read:
+
-
<source lang="text">
+
-
LOGIN = 'https://accounts.google.com/ServiceLogin?service=grandcentral&passive=1209600&continue=https://www.google.com/voice&followup=https://www.google.com/voice&ltmpl=open'
+
-
</source>
+
-
as per [http://code.google.com/p/pygooglevoice/issues/detail?id=58#c24 this bug report].
+
-
 
+
-
Then stick this script in /home/user/bin/gvlocation and make it executable:

Finally, install the following configuration file in /home/user/.gvlocation.conf and edit it to add networks and phone numbers as necessary.  The simplest change is just to add your office, home, and cellphone numbers, and to add your office and home WiFi network IDs.  Much more complex configurations are possible if you need them.

## The two parameters below are the heart of your configuration.
+
-
## There are two ways to organize your setup: by phone, or by
+
-
## network.  You can even intermix them, though I don't recommend it.
+
-
## I prefer by-network organization.
+
-
##
+
-
## In a by-network setup, you basically say "when I'm on network X,
+
-
## enable or disable the following phones."  So when you're on your
+
-
## home network, you'd enable your home phone and disable the office
+
-
## phone; at the office it would be vice versa.
+
-
##
+
-
## In a by-phone setup, you organize things by phones.  Your office
+
-
## phone might say "enable me when I'm network A, disable me on B."
+
-
## It's really just a different way of laying things out.
+
-
##
+
-
## List of phones.  The names give are user-chosen mnemonics that
+
-
## match sections below.  The names "auth" and "configuration" are
+
-
## prohibited.  Separate by blanks or commas.
+
-
##
+
-
## Example:
+
-
## phones = samplephone, homephone, officephone
+
-
##
+
-
#phones=
+
-
 
+
-
## List of networks.  Again, the names are user-chosen separated by
+
-
## blanks or commas.
+

##

## Example:

-
## networks = homenet, officenet, othernet
