Afternoon,
I am trying to work out a way to get a meassage flashed up on the screen
once an hour to remind me to have a break (rest my eyes!).
I set up a cron job like so:
echo " Kit Kat" | osd_cat --bottom --offset=500 --color=red
--delay=20
--font=-adobe-helvetica-*-*-*-*-300-*-100-100-*-*-iso8859-*
But I get an error saying no display.
No display
: Success
Error initializing osd
I tried using the --display param but it's not recognised by osd_cat.
Any pointers on how I can go about setting the environment correctly so
it will display my reminder?
TIA.
