Quote | Have you tried placing it in a directory called "/optional" off your top level directory ? Then it should automount.. |
--- That's in the CD. Not everyone is going to know how to do that. Anyway, I place the little applications such as dock apps in the root of the CD, and the big applications such as abiword, Mozilla Firefox Opera 6.12 and Gimp 1.2 in /optional Then, none of the big apps will automatically load. I have to use the MyDSL Click and Load GUI, or (in a root rxvt) emelfm to load them. The little dock apps load on bootup, I don't need to do anything but start them via the Menu:
Code Sample | [submenu] (Desktop) {} [submenu] (Dock Apps) {} [exec] (Clock - Date) {/usr/bin/wmclock} [exec] (Calculator) {/usr/bin/wmcalc} [exec] (Dialup) {/usr/bin/wmppp} [exec] (Moonclock) {/usr/X11R6/bin/wmMoonClock -lat 30.15 -lon 96.4 -bc tan -lc black -dc red} [exec] (Pinboard) {/usr/bin/wmpinboard -w} [exec] (Weather - On) {/usr/bin/wmweather+ -c /home/dsl/weather.cfg} [exec] (Weather - Off) {killall wmweather+} [exec] (Memory) {asmem -withdrawn -bg black -fg white} [exec] (CPU Load) {wmcpuload} [exec] (Mount) {mount.app} [exec] (Audio) {wmix} [exec] (Network) {wmnet -w} [exec] (Close All) {/home/dsl/dockappclose} [end] [exec] (Full Enhanced Desktop) {enhance &>/dev/null} [exec] (Icons Only) {xtdesk} [exec] (No Icons) {killall -9 xtdesk} [config] (Configuration) [submenu] (Styles) {} [stylesdir] (/usr/share/fluxbox/styles) [stylesdir] (~/.fluxbox/styles) [end] |
--- This is a modified menu, if you add something like this to your fluxbox menu, be sure and have an entry in your filetool.lst to save it to your backup/restore file:
Code Sample | home/dsl/.fluxbox |
The little file that closes all the dock apps, shown in the menu sample above, is given here:
Code Sample | #!/bin/bash # # dockappclose, version 0.1 # file location, /home/dsl/.fluxbox/dockappclose # Close all open Dock Apps. # For Rapidweather Remaster of DSL Linux. # Accessed via menu item: # Menu - > Apps - > Dock Apps - > Close All. # kill any of these, open or not. killall wmcpuload >/dev/null 2>&1 killall asmem >/dev/null 2>&1 killall mount.app >/dev/null 2>&1 killall wmclock >/dev/null 2>&1 killall wmMoonClock >/dev/null 2>&1 killall wmppp >/dev/null 2>&1 killall wmpinboard >/dev/null 2>&1 killall wmnet >/dev/null 2>&1 killall wmix >/dev/null 2>&1 killall wmweather+ >/dev/null 2>&1 killall wmcalc >/dev/null 2>&1 # now that all Dock Apps are closed, print this: echo " All Dock Apps have been closed ." # end dockappclose exit 0
|
--- I've used it for a while, and it helps when opening just the dock apps I want rather than the default "enhance ones". ---
