I'm not sure I understand your second sentence... you are trying to make gui_shell do things from the shell (or script etc.)? By the way I didn't look what kind of events they (gui_shell and system_manager) signal to each other over the DBUS
ah - thx - I had overlooked that directory...

I originally was talking about problems extending onyx's versions of gui_shell and system_manager.
Thus the second part was about _using_ the extended functionality in Onyx's firmware. New applications could use the described socket, but gui_shell would not.

The next idea was a daemon using the DBus to trigger events in gui_shell and system_manager... but so far I had no luck.
The only signals that are broadcast on the system DBus (eavesdropped with dbus-monitor --system) seem
* 'Idle'
* Volume-related signals,
* starting/stopping of applications,
* aboutToSuspend
* and when a new wifi connection was established.

But simply reproducing the signals on the bus by use of dbus-send did not elicit responses, so I assume that applications pay heed to the sender... so I guess that you'd have to spoof the sender. (currently don't know how to do that)
