The relevant part of the test script is # Build a wrapper script to launch gimp cat > gimp-launch.sh << EOF /usr/bin/gimp -i -b "(mmtests-open-image \"$FILENAME\")" -b "(gimp-quit 0)" > $LOGDIR_RESULTS/gimp-out.1 2>&1 echo \$? > gimp-exit-code EOF chmod u+x gimp-launch.sh $TIME_CMD xinit ./gimp-launch.sh 2> $LOGDIR_RESULTS/time.1 RETVAL=`cat gimp-exit-code` It's clumsy because the application would start with no window manager and looking at it again, it probably was not even necessary because of the -i switch in gimp. Previously when I needed to automate an X app I configured the machine to login automatically, exported the DISPLAY variable in the test script and used wmctrl to detect if an application had a window displayed yet. -- Mel Gorman SUSE Labs -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
