Re: [suse-oracle] Xvfb and compiling reports

if you look closely in the script, you'll see in the start section:

[ -f $CONFIG ] || explodeconfig

and, subsequently, the procedure explodeconfig:

explodeconfig() {
echo "localhost" > $CONFIG
}

To be honest, I've used this script on SLES7, and it needed some work
because only the really needed packages for xvfb where installed, so dpyinfo
was not present. the script is tested on RHEL5 / Centos5. Let me know if you
have to make have alterations to make it work on SLES10!

regards,

frits
