Other Help Topics :: wmMatrix dpkg deb
I have wmmatrix*.deb (with the 2 libs*.deb it needs) and when i dpkg them and start wmMatrix it works fine... Now i want it to run at boottime (with al the other wm-app's in the slit of fluxbox).
I tried to put the dpkg command in .xinitrc (followed by the command wmMatrix with is proper path of course) but that doesn't work.
I tried putting the dpkg-command (dpkg -i *.deb) in .bash_profile which looks like this:
#!/bin/bash
export IRCNICK=DSL
SSH=`env | grep SSH_CONNECTION`
#if [ -z "$SSH" ]; then startx; fi
start_fluxdev
But i still can't get it running.. (at bpottime that is)
When i make a script:
#!bash/bin
dpkg -i *.deb &
wmMatrix &
That doesn't work either...
Hint?
Normally, the dpkg command must be executed as user 'root'
Does
sudo dpkg -i *.deb (without the "&")
work?
You may need to answer text prompts. When you manually use the dpkg -i command, does the screen ask you any questions like "Do you want to do this? (y/N)"?
I just got a wmMatrix.dsl from ke4nt1 and it works great! I added it in .xinitrc like this:
/usr/bin/wmMatrix &
Thnx again ke4nt1
