Hi, I'm trying to write a custom extension to use my old PW3 as a dashboard, but I'm having some trouble with stopping the framework.

I've got some very minimal code at the moment:

Code:

#!/bin/sh

DIR="$(dirname "$0")"
LOG="$DIR/log.txt"

echo "Stopping lab126_gui" >> "$LOG"
initctl stop lab126_gui >> "$LOG"
echo "Stopped lab126_gui" >> "$LOG"

Calling this from within SSH works, but when I start it via KUAL, "Stopping lab126_gui" is the last thing that is logged.

Note that I am able to launch Koreader and kterm.
I also don't know if it's related, but I also keep getting log files in my library about, "Mismatches between cc.db entries and storage"

Any help is appreciated, thanks!
