Scripts that test for X running might work in a shell but not when the script is run by cron.
For example: This code: tty|grep pts retval=$? if [[ $retval > 0 ]];then print "X isn't running just now... postponing rsync of WWW until such time as it is... exiting" exit fi Runs fine when run from a user shell, but when cron runs it the test always fails to be true. So how can I test for X running in case where script will be run by cron? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
