Hi X11 mailing list,
I'm writing here as I'm unsure how to proceed to achieve my goal.
I would like to bind one of my function keys to open the "systemsettings5"
app of the KDE desktop environment.
To do this, I'm trying to map a devd event to do just that (see the attached
script).
At the moment I'm using the command bellow.
case notify in
<snip>
0x1d) # Settings
su dries -c 'env XAUTHORITY=/home/dries/.Xauthority
DISPLAY=:0 /usr/local/bin/systemsettings5'
;;
The systemsettings5 program opens fine but it doesn't open in the correct font
and color as the running session of my user. Does anybody have any pointers on
how I could achieve this?
Regards,
Dries
PS: I attached my acp_ibm script
