[VastOne]

This will be added to the next ISO build to make sure people are are aware and do in fact run ceni to establish their network

Thanks jedi and hakerdefo

[PackRat]

Looks good. But I think Ceni first showed up in Aptosid so calling it an Siduction script may not be accurate. I would just modify their own description contained in the copyright information at the end of the script:

"A Curses user interface for configuring network interfaces with ifupdown."

Or give the author Kel Modderman direct credit.

[VastOne]

I was never sure of who was the first with that script, the chicken or the egg...

I will give all the creds to Kell Modderman, thanks for that!

[VastOne]

Made some changes to reflect the proper author

I am having an issue with the exit part of the bash... If you exit terminal by clicking the X on the top right, WICD runs instead of a clean exit of the bash script...

Something basic but I have yet to see what it is to fix

bash pro's, I could use an assist

Thanks

[PackRat]

I'm no pro, but don't the "fi" have to come before the "exit 0"?

[VastOne]

^ I thought the same also but it makes no differences... It is something very fundamental I am missing

[hakerdefo]

Currently I've no way of testing this as I don't have either a latest ISO of VSIDO or a system with YAD.

Try it and let me know.

[PackRat]

@hakerdefo - it's a no go on my system. Any selection - ceni, wicd, or close - actually makes both apps run in succession.

[VastOne]

For me it does the same thing as the original except it opens ceni on close instead of WICD as what PackRat reports

Continuing to test with it

This format seems to work for the looks with your functions hakerdefo

@PackRat @VastOne thanks for the feedback! Sorry my previous script didn't work! Anyways here is a fresh take,

function tataa (){
exit 0
}

function cenee (){
xfce4-terminal -e ceni
}

function wiicd (){
wicd-gtk
}

case $? in

1) cenee ;;
2) wiicd ;;
3) tataa ;;
esac


Hope this yields better results!!!
Cheers!!!

[VastOne]

Exit button works but neither the Ceni or WICD functions work at all
