cron: xine Cannot open display
hi lq, is there anyway to execute xine from cron?:
thanks, Code:
[schneidz@lq stuff]$ crontab -l |
X Y * * * DISPLAY=localhost:0.0 xine "whatever blows your skirt.file"
And as the owner of the X-Session xhost +localhost |
thanks tin, should be something fun to hack around with this week. i was trying to create a visual alarm clock (they showed a $400 box from japan that did the same on 'g4-attack of the show').
i wonder if that'll make my monitor wake-up? |
Doubt it ... it's just screen-action, not human-action.
Cheers, Tink |
it works and it wakes up my moniter.
|
Heh - good for you ;}
Cheers, Tink |
