Hi,
I realized that when I have for instance gedit open and then run (in an
ssh shell)
$ DISPLAY=:0 libertine-launch puritine matchbox-keyboard
I get a useful onscreen keyboard for gedit.
Libertine uses the matchbox-window-manager, so instead of launching a
specific
programm i thought it would be cool to launch the matchbox-desktop
With the following steps you get a kind of desktop

from where you can start your programms

I created a desktop entry puritine_myxinit_0.0.desktop
$ cat /home/phablet/.local/share/applications/puritine_myxinit_0.0.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Name=0myxinit
Exec=/bin/true
Type=Application
StartupNotify=true
#Icon=/home/phablet/icons/green.svg
Keywords=Libertine
NotShowIn=Unity;
X-Ubuntu-Touch=true
X-Ubuntu-XMir-Enable=true
Then I created the applications dir inside the container
$ mkdir
/home/phablet/.local/share/libertine-container/user-data/puritine/.local/share/applications
and there the desktop entry myxinit.desktop
$ cat
/home/phablet/.local/share/libertine-container/user-data/puritine/.local/share/applications/myxinit.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Name=MyXinit
#GenericName=Terminal
Exec=/home/phablet/myxinit
Terminal=false
Type=Application
#Encoding=UTF-8
Icon=xterm-color
Categories=System;TerminalEmulator;Utility;
X-Desktop-File-Install-Version=0.22
And in the home directory of the container the script myxinit
$ cat
/home/phablet/.local/share/libertine-container/user-data/puritine/myxinit
#!/bin/bash
sleep 1 # it's needed, dont know why
matchbox-keyboard &
#matchbox-panel &
exec matchbox-desktop
#exec matchbox-session
$ chmod 775
/home/phablet/.local/share/libertine-container/user-data/puritine/myxinit
matchbox-session adds the matchbox-panel to the gui, which is more or
less useless
Libertine launches matchbox-window-manager with no titlebar. With the
titlebar on the other hand you get a small button to switch between
running apllications.
If you've done the previous steps not in puritine but in yourcontainer,
you can do
$ cd /home/phablet/.cache/libertine-container/yourcontainer/rootfs/usr/bin
$ mv matchbox-window-manager matchbox-window-manager-original
create a executable script with
$ cat matchbox-window-manager
#!/bin/bash
exec matchbox-window-manager-original
#setxkbmap -layout de
#exec awesome
#exec openbox
What are the reasons to run each programm with it's own Xmir-server, in
it's own confinement?
What do I have to do to just start a Xmir-Server?
Cheers
Christian
