I just set up a "game" as:
Code:
/usr/X11R6/bin/xterm -font -misc-fixed-*-r-normal-*-24-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-* -geometry 65x30
...works for me

HeyHey~ It would be great to have an xterm underneath mythtvfrontend when I start my machine up, is there a way to add that to the startup script? I like to be able to just Alt-Tab to it so I don't have to plug the mouse in, shut down mythfrontend and r-click the desktop to get the xterm. I've been having a hard time getting an answer through google... it's kind of a tough search param to nail down... Thanks! /clueless |

not sure about having it startup automatically, but you don't need a mouse to get an xterm in knoppmyth just exit out of the mythfrontend and hit alt+x to get back into the frontend hit alt+M and if you need the mythtv-setup hit alt+S. |

For what it is worth, I have this working via: Code: echo '[startup] {xterm -fn *10x20*}'>>/home/mythtv/.fluxbox/apps
Note that I added a font definition for the HUGH font. |

Hi, alt x will give an xterm most anytime, no need to shutdown anything. ctl d will close it. You could get fancy and add it to a menu button, maybe under utilities. Course you would still need a keyboard to close it or to switch with alt tab. I also use alt w for my browser, alt e for e-mail & alt t for a time check. Mike |

I make a simple script then execute it ONCE as root. press ctl alt bksp to activate them. If you have any of those installed, then they are available at your finger tips. If you install firefox, it may actually install iceweasle which is even better as it gives you spell check while typing on the forum. 
nano -w add-alt-keys.sh #!/bin/sh # #adds mozilla & thunderbird to alt w (web) & alt e (e-mail) echo "Mod1 w :ExecCommand mozilla" >> /etc/X11/fluxbox/keys echo "Mod1 e :ExecCommand mozilla-thunderbird" >> /etc/X11/fluxbox/keys echo "Mod1 t :ExecCommand saytime" >> /etc/X11/fluxbox/keys This version of saytime isn't as good as the original but you can make your own voice files. If you can't just enter saytime at a prompt, then you may need to use the full path /usr/bin/saytime . Enjoy Mike |
