Great program, works exactly as advertised.
Any chance for a launch Fcam option? Or a third button to launch a custom app?
This program drains my battery
This was difficult to trace.
Apparently the /etc/event.d/flashlight-extra script is started every 2 seconds.
Could there possibly be some wrong registration?
Btw: Deinstalling solved the thing
I don't know about pr1.2, but this does not play nice with pr1.3, including with Titan's power kernel.
Upon installation, it worked but I noticed everything became real laggy. CPU util went way up. On de-installation the system was somewhat more responsive but CPU is still high: it has apparently done something to make ohmd eat cycles which persists between reboots.
I'm trying to fix this and there are seversl TMO threads on the subject. This is a nice app, but you guys really need to fix this major bug!
Update: luckily, someone else figured out the problem--2 scripts are not removed by apt-get. According to http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=818013&postcount=19 and similar posts, you must remove the following 2 files:
/etc/event.d/flashlight-extra
/etc/init.d/flashlight-extra
Reboot and you should be ok.
