Not criticizing your approach here, but, I think one could implement systemd --user sessions and timer units to dbus-send "play" messages to amarok. Together with creating a service for amarok that would keep it running, one could do this in 2-3 units. Glad we have achieved your 90's holy grail though :^) Auke _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
