AndLinux
Intro
andLinux is a bundle of several pieces enabling a linux distribution to run with its kernel as a Windows service.
- Ubuntu
- coLinux, a port of the Linux kernel to Windows
- Xming, a X server for Windows
- PulseAudio, the sound server
Tips
Add sth like this to andLinux\settings.txt
cofs1=D:\
And in the /etc/fstab of the Ubuntu:
1 /mnt/d cofs defaults 0 0
Running kgpg
The problem is that once kgpg is iconified, I've no idea where this icon goes and I cannot maximize the window anymore (it's also true for e.g. klipper)
The trick is to use a dcop command to raise the window, you can play with kdcop to experiment
So I added to andLinux\Launcher\menu.txt the following:
Kgpg;kgpg.ico;pgrep kgpg > /dev/null || kgpg;dcop kgpg KeyInterface showKeyManager
The icon was converted from /usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/apps/kgpg.png with The Gimp
Windows Explorer integration
In the Windows Explorer there is now on right-click on a file a possibility to open it with Kate.
To do that it is creating the path file:///mnt/win/... so be sure that /mnt/win points to your data partition.
