[jornada] [with repl. ROM] Refreshing the Screen

Hello,

the following tiny script can serve as a quick hack to refresh the
screen after the Jornada is restored (by pressing the "power" key):

  #!/bin/bash
  DISPLAY=:0.0 /usr/X11R6/bin/qiv /usr/share/images/mars.jpg &
  sleep 2s
  kill `ps aux | grep qiv | grep -v grep | cut -b 9-14`

When stored as e.g. /etc/resume-scripts/R99screen this script will
display a full-screen image for two seconds, giving the screen some
time to calm down after power resume. After that, the image viewer
is killed, and X11 will redraw everything.

(Since suspend/resume only works with a replacement ROM, this is
only useful for those who have such a thing - sorry.)

Happy hacking,

    Peter
