Can someone make a quick shell script that will set the default gui to minimenu?
I have xbmc setup as a gui and would like to test it as the default gui but need to be able to switch back (of course) but as of now xbmc has a problem starting an app that needs a windows manager.
So if someone...
Okay I think it was just something else borked up in the script...
I got it working now...
Now I have a theory that if I set xbmc as the default gui then I can get this to work...
Only one problem... it seems if I launch a pnd that requires the window manager (like the switch gui app) nothing...
The only thing I can figure is I put the delay in the .desktop launching python script that was external...
Can someone write a python script that will launch a pnd using the
pnd_run
provided by the system, and also add a 2 second delay before it actually runs?
Or how would I insert the...
UHHHHGGGGHHHH
I'm just trying to add the delay back into the launcher script and it's not working. XBMC doesn't like it anymore... I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong
(goes of and wails and cries as if his favorite dog has just died just before his eyes because he failed to shut off the...
Not really... it changes constantly ;)
It's all in the notes on page 3 I think...
Right now I'm going to make sure I can start the op_switchgui.pnd and then try setting it as a default gui.
I just tried
In my shell script all it does is
xterm
But I get nothing....
This is just weird... I'm going to launch xbmc with root permissions and then try using the killall in a script
Another weird thing is
killall xbmc.bin does not work :(
I basically have the launcher plugin start the shell script
(paraphrasing below)
killall xbmc.bin
sleep 5
launch PND
sleep 5
launch xbmc
When it launches the pnd the app shows above xbmc but sound doesn't work. which indicates...
Wow this is strange.
I can run xbmc as a gui
Right now the laucnher plugin loads a shell script that kills xbmc and then runs the pnd. When the pnd is done running it tries to run xbmc again. But nothing happens... it's as if xbmc doesn't like to be loaded twice.
Any ideas?
Okay I just tried launching a pnd from my gui of xbmc and xbmc quit and then nothing happened (I think it's behaving like it would on a desktop now...)
I'm going to create the run_pnd script again and see if that works...
I have found a bug...
If you use a window manager other than xfce4 (or whatever you call it) xbmc will not start all the way
The way I know this
I change mmenu to be the default window manager in minimenu
I have the problem there...
I have managed to start xbmc as a different gui. I have the...
What are the settings used to revert to the orgiginal configuration? I have a bug I need to confirm is related to matchbox and don't remember what the original setting was...
