10.4: Easily use Front Row on a second monitor (TV)
Authored by: captain caveman on Dec 07, '05 05:00:51PM
Two things I'd check first

1) I'd

echo $path
and see if that folder is in your path. It's not in mine... so I doubt it.

2) If you're running tcsh, and that folder was in your path, you might have to run "rehash" to get tcsh to recognize the new command. (type ps... one of the items should show tcsh or bash...) I did the following to install mine

sudo cp cscreen /usr/local/bin/cscreen
rehash

10.4: Easily use Front Row on a second monitor (TV)

got it, I didn't realize that you had to use the command line, not the finder, to install it (ignorance). I have it working, but is it supposed to revert to having my main monitor as the primary monitor after front row quits or do i need a "quit front row" script that also changes the monitor back?
thanks again

I agree about reverting the primary display back. I did create a second script with only the display change option and it works but it doesn't return the display arrangement back to normal so I still have to manually change that. I did see on version tracker that the author didn't promise the arrangement will remain the same so I am not sure if there is an easy fix.

how do you add folders to your bash path?
