Re: terminate opie

I've now got a script that works to shut down opie apps before X gets
started. I had to use the quit() function to kill the opie apps that
were running, then /etc/init.d/qpe stop to actually kill the qpe
process.

Now to getting the menu item working. I made a .desktop file in
$QTDIR/apps which contains this:

  [Desktop Entry]
  Type=Application
  Exec=/root/bin/switch2x
  Icon=Shutdown
  Name=Switch to X

but this doesn't work when I tap the menu item. Am I allowed to put an
explicit program filename in that Exec line? Or does it have to be the
name of an actual Application?

Thanks,

Cameron
