A few days ago xlinks2 was mentioned on this list and I decided to
give it a try.
When I try to run it from within X as a normal user, no problem.
When I try to run it outside of X as root, no problem.
When I try to run it outside of X as a normal user, I get an error
about opening /dev/tty0 because of permission issues.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -l /dev/tty0

I could change the group to "tty" or something and then add my normal
user into that group, but is there perhaps a
better/safer/more-canonical way?
Kind of an OT question sorry, but how can you run xlinks2 outside of
X? I thought that TTY terminal sessions didn't support images?
It uses the fbdev device; pretty sweet. And fast! Of course, it has some
limitations ....
Try 'links2 -g'. Since I've never used xlinks2, I can't say wether
they're the same thing.
Worth a shot, though!
