Question #261600 on Sikuli changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/sikuli/+question/261600
Summary changed to: [HowTo] Linux: Running sikuli while using screen, mouse and keyboard --- use Xephyr Description changed to: ---------- a possible solution --------------- (from comment #3) Follow two references about how to do it using xephyr, opening a remote X session to your own computer inside a window using SSH or XDMCP. Then you can run Sikuli there and left the window as it was a virtual machine. http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/xephyr.html http://jeffskinnerbox.me/posts/2014/Apr/29/howto-using-xephyr-to-create-a-new-display-in-a-window/ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is not exactly a question specific to Sikuli. I use it in a lot of tasks to integrate information between programs, to not need to type again and again. I was thinking if someone here use Sikuli in a way thats possible to still work with it running. I know I can run Sikuli inside a virtual machine and it will not interfere in my host system, but I was trying to run it in my own system and be able to other things when it is running. I use Linux Mint 17.1 with Cinnamon 64 bits. Tried to run it inside another session and it stop working when I alternate between my open sessions. Tried to execute it inside xnest or xephyr but was not able to isolate completely a cinnamon session inside it. Maybe the majority of users here use it on Windows and this is kind of a specific question to Linux. Someone here have any suggestion how this could be done? -- You received this question notification because you are a member of Sikuli Drivers, which is an answer contact for Sikuli. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~sikuli-driver Post to : sikuli-driver@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~sikuli-driver More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
