ctrl+alt+f1 login sudo init 3 sudo rcsmb start sudo rcnmb start <watch the movie> How are you going to watch a movie in text mode? I know that xine has an ascii text mode display, but I would not care to watch a movie that way except to show that it can be done. And I very much doubt you are refering to that. Hi
I connect to a wireless multimedia nas via samba so that everyone can view the movie on a larger screen with better sound. I drop to rl3 because otherwise the playback is jerky.
Why didn't you explain this before? It is very different from watching a video on your machine, as most of us all thought.
Any ideas for a script?
Well... yes, you can use "chvt 1" instead of "ctrl-alt-f1". No need to login, actually impossible from a script (you can not answer the password prompt). The script has to be launched from somewhere, but that somewhere can not be a konsole because it will be killed: you will have to go to the one text mode terminal, login, and there launch the script. You are already in a text console, so the first few steps you listed are superfluous. Or you can connect remotely via ssh and issue an init 3. That is the only command you need to issue, the samba server should be started on boot. Actually, you could create your own runlevel definition and start/stop whatever services you want. Don't ask me how with systemd, however. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
