Hi,
I'm interested in developing a personal time tracking system. To start,
I thought I would create a simple dialog box that pops up every 15 minutes
I created the following script
#!/bin/sh
export DISPLAY=:0
zenity --question --text="What are you doing?"
and added an entry for it in my crontab. Although syslog shows that it
runs, I never see the dialog. Any suggestions on making this work?
Thanks,
Brian
