I was thinking of posting a binary which you can put onto a USB stick, it will close the control panel, let you play with it, and then squeeze to exit and restart the control panel.

Can this be coded into a widget?

Re: Chumby "Lava Lamp"

This was programmed more like a normal PC program - so it accesses the chumby hardware more directly. It can't be posted as a widget, since it would be dangerous to allow widgets the hardware access this application needs.

Instead, this is more the type of program that would need to be run from a USB stick plugged into the Chumby.

Do you have this stable enough to distribute?
I would love to try it out.
