Thank you mergen3107 -- your post had some excellent direction for my testing with this. I took a look at changing /var/local/mesquite/start.sh:

Code:

APP=booklet.home

changed to

Code:

APP=KPPMainApp?view=KPP_LIBRARY

However, unfortunately this change seems to be overwritten on boot.

I did see some conversation in this thread about a database entry, so I searched around in files and found a lot of references to the Home screen entry (com.lab126.booklet.home) in /var/local/appreg.db.

Just wanted to contribute my findings so far, even if I couldn't find a full solution for this. If there is a way to preserve changes to start.sh across reboots, or to modify the code that's written into that file on boot, that might be the best bet for automatically directing to your Library instead of the Home screen on boot.
