I have a strange curiosity as to why I must run this script again when run the first time after leopard ver 6.6.0.
Here is the script:
#!/bin/bash
#invoke a X program using X windows
# first kill any X running by me
p_found=`ps ax|grep -v grep|grep X|wc -l`
if [ $p_found -gt 0 ]
then
killall X
#open -a -n x11.app
fi
p_found=`ps ax|grep -v grep|grep quartz-wm|wc -l`
if [ $p_found -gt 0 ]
then
killall quartz-wm
fi
doit=0
case "$1"
in
1) export program=fluxbox
doit=1;;
2) export program=fvwm
doit=1;;
f) export program=fvwm2
doit=1;;
3) export program=gnome
doit=1;;
4) export program=icewm
doit=1;;
5) export program=kde3
doit=1;;
6) export program=kde4
doit=1;;
7) export program=ratpoison
doit=1;;
8) export program=wmaker
doit=1;;
9) export program=xfce4
doit=1;;
a) export program=amiga
doit=1;;
o) export program=openbox
doit=1;;
g) export program=ognome
doit=1;;
k) export program=okde
doit=1;;
c) export program=ctwm
doit=1;;
d) export program=dwm
doit=1;;
e) export program=evilwm
doit=1;;
p) export program=pwm
doit=1;;
v) export program=vtwm
doit=1;;
esac
if [ "$doit" -eq 1 ]
then
sleep 20 seconds
open -a /Applications/Utilities/X11.app
fi
This script will run on a second execution, but when run after the imac is initial started, it will start X11.app but not
start the intended window manager from the selection chosen.
Can someone tell me why?
