And I am much appreciative.

My only concern with this bug is that it might be a qpe bug. It might
be hard to work out a fix that we know most distros are using.

Duh. I see you already worked this one out.

In a perfect world we would document in the code all of the places that
seem to mix this up and mark it as @bug or @todo so a doxygen run would
pick it up.

I see you have a patch for this. I can't remember which way you went on a fix
for this. I'll defer to your experience.

Heh, I recently went in to put in a birthday for my Grandmother.
And found this gem.

In fact we should track the one it points to:
http://opie-bugs.oszine.de/view.php?id=1312

Since that one talks about the backlight issue (which is still pending).

I noticed Dmitri recently posted a note to it. Dmitri - you have
anything to say about a way to get this bug closed? I am more then
happy to make sure that opie-bluepin never gets built as a quicklaunch
linked app.

I am assuming that Paul S. will pipe up on this one.

Right already done. Please resolve.

Someone gets bonus points if they figure out a way to make it
locale triggered instead of just dropping continent servers in the
file and hope that the user knows what they are doing.

Fine with me. Anyones that are reproducable or have not been tried yet
should be retried with latest cvs since that has quite a bit of segfault
fixing in it.

Add away.

A master bug is very useful in bugzilla because it has built in
dependency tree knowledge. But I have no idea if that is relevant in mantis.
You're call.

Thanks again for working out the useful bugs.
