Start up sounds

#1 Post by GrumpyWolfe »

Hi all

When I was testing out the puppylinux 4 from alpha to final each time that I upgraded I would lose me startup sound. I think that some may like what I have do to my system to keep my startup sound between upgrades.

In the Startup director you will create a file called startupsound now you can name it anything you want I just like to have names that let me know what it is for. Then open Geany text editor and put this simple code in there

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
aplay /root/my-documents/HOWL.WAV &
save the file and then open up the Startup folder and right click on the file at the bottom of the menu you will see permissions, left click on permissions when open click on the yes button this will set permissions so it will run at start up. Now your sounds will be there with each upgrade accept when you wipe the drive.
