i've just found out xosd.
i installed it from source (http://www.ignavus.net/xosd-2.2.2.tar.gz).
but when i run the example from http://ldots.org/xosd-guide/osd_cat.html i get "Error initializing osd: Default font not found"
$ FONT="-adobe-helvetica-bold-*-*-*-34-*-*-*-*-*-*-*" $ tail -f /var/log/messages | osd_cat --font=$FONT --shadow=2 Error initializing osd: Default font not found
when i run src/testprog i get the same error...
but when i run this program i get : could not create "osd" ------------- #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <xosd.h>
int main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
xosd *osd;osd = xosd_create (2);
if (osd == NULL)
{
perror ("Could not create \"osd\"");
exit (1);
}xosd_set_font (osd, "-adobe-helvetica-bold-r-normal-*-*-320-*-*-p-*-iso8859-1"
); xosd_set_shadow_offset (osd, 2); xosd_set_colour (osd, "#494066"); xosd_set_outline_offset(osd, 2); xosd_set_outline_colour(osd, "black");
xosd_set_pos (osd, XOSD_bottom); xosd_set_vertical_offset (osd, 48);
xosd_set_align (osd, XOSD_right); xosd_set_horizontal_offset (osd, 48);
xosd_display (osd, 0, XOSD_string, "You have been R00ted");
sleep (8); xosd_destroy (osd); exit (0); }
how can i get osd/osd_cat to work? To just show something...
thanks Joel Alexandre
