Opening xterms from a script
I did a hard drive install of DSL and I'm loving it. However, I have one somewhat glaring problem.
That is, I have a script residing on another machine that opens xterm in a manner like this
#!/bin/bash
xterm -e "command and options" &
xterm -e "command and options" &
xterm -e "command and options" &
This was not a problem using Knoppix either from the CD or as a hard drive install. It pops open an xterm window and then backgrounds it and opens another and so on. So, I'm wondering why DSL can't pull it off. With DSL, the xterms pop up and then disappear. Does it have something to do with DSL's windows management? Can I upgrade it through synaptic or a DSL package?
