Title: New Startup Entry?
Post by: Tred on April 25, 2010, 09:48:23 pm

I've written a script to run uTorrent through wine on my system:

#!/bin/bash
#
#

wine /mnt/device/61/uTorrent/utorrent-startup

Granted it's pretty simple; but when I ssh with x11 enabled (ssh -X) and log in as linuxmce it works perfectly.
So I wanted it to start up without KDE (unlike in the linuxMCE Bittorrent Guide) so I went in to
/usr/pluto/bin/startup-script.sh and added StartService "uTorrent" "/usr/pluto/bin/uTorrent.sh"
But it never runs (I Know because I can't access the webUI that uTorrent hosts when I run it through ssh)
Am I doing anything wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I think using Transmission (http://www.transmissionbt.com/) is much more efficient way to add torrent client to the LinuxMCE. It has native Linux application, web interface and even offers remote GUI. Works perfectly on my D-Link DNS-321 NAS.

BTW if you'd like to start some script/app during boot of LinuxMCE just add it into /etc/rc.local
