 |
|
The Following script is used to switch runlevel before and after playing a game, in order to free up all the possible resources so your gaming experience is that much nicer.
First Make a Gaming runlevel.
| Code: | cd /etc/runlevels
mkdir gaming
rc-update add <the scripts needed to during gaming> gaming |
ie. if you want syslog, cron and net running while gaming
| Code: | rc-update add syslog gaming
rc-update add cron gaming
rc-update add net gaming |
Keep going until you have all the options needed.
Add this script to /usr/local/bin, or any other $PATH of your choice
| Code: | #!/bin/sh
# letsPlay.sh
###
# Begin USER Config
GAMERUNLEVEL="gaming"
NORMALRUNLEVEL="default"
### END user Config
if [ -x /usr/bin/sudo ]; then
sudo /sbin/rc $GAMERUNLEVEL
$1
sudo /sbin/rc $NORMALRUNLEVEL;
else
echo "You need to have sudo installed"
echo "emerge sudo :)"
exit 1;
fi |
Now
| Code: | cd /usr/local/bin
chown root:games letsPlay.sh
chmod 554 letsPlay.sh |
And that is it...
To use just execute
| Code: | | letsPlay.sh <game Of choice> |
