All i'm doing is backing up folders and I display which folder is about to be backed up. I'll update my script to qdbus-qt5 and see how that goes.
Ok, but how exactly are you displaying the folder? Its just text i'm sending to the screen. I used to use kdialog directly but when that stopped working, i was given qdbus as a replacement way of displaying text on the screen after logout so i can see progress. I can't find the original email where i was told about how to do it. This is how i was doing it with "qdbus"
dbusRef=`kdialog --progressbar "Starting Back up procedure" 4` sleep 1 qdbus $dbusRef Set "Starting Back up procedure" value 1 rsync ...... qdbus $dbusRef Set "" value 1 qdbus $dbusRef setLabelText "1.4. Backing up /home/me/Documents"
qdbus(-qt5) is just a tool to send messages via D-BUS to some application, it doesn't really do anything by itself.
Kind Regards, Wolfgang
