This doesn't work.

Code: Select all

guest@porteus:~$ firefox 2>/dev/null
console.error: 
  [CustomizableUI]
  Custom widget with id loop-button does not return a valid node
console.error:

I really thought that was it. But when I actually tried it:

Code: Select all

guest@porteus:~$ firefox "http://www.java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp" 1&2>/dev/null
[1] 5695
guest@porteus:~$ 
(process:5695): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_slice_set_config: assertion `sys_page_size == 0' failed
console.error: 
  [CustomizableUI]
  Custom widget with id loop-button does not return a valid node
console.error:

^C

guest@porteus:~$

Looks like you inadvertently started a background job :)

Needed to try

Code: Select all

:sorry: I really need to get new glasses. Or a bigger screen, which I am considering.

So, when I copy & paste :) your response I get:

Code: Select all

guest@porteus:~$ firefox "http://www.java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp" 1>&2 2>/dev/null
guest@porteus:~$ 
:Yahoo!: Perfect.

But when I use the exact same line in a script I get:

Code: Select all

guest@porteus:~$ java-update.sh

1. Download the current non-RPM Linux file. 
console.error: 
  [CustomizableUI]
  Custom widget with id loop-button does not return a valid node
console.error: 
  [CustomizableUI]
  Custom widget with id loop-button does not return a valid node
 
When I close Firefox I get:

Code: Select all

   Close Firefox when done. 
 
2. Invoke [Menu > System Tools] Java Builder 
 
3. Point it to the /home/guest/Downloads/jre-*.tar.gz file 
   and run it. It takes a moment to start and several to end. 
 
4. When it ends press Enter to copy the jre-*.xzm file to the 
   /mnt/sda5/porteus3.0/Modules folder.
 
Disregard the following Firefox errors.
The part of the script's code that is causing the problem:

Code: Select all

echo
echo "1. Download the current non-RPM Linux file. "
firefox "http://www.java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp" 1>&2 2>/dev/null
echo "   Close Firefox when done. "
echo " "
echo "2. Invoke [Menu > System Tools] Java Builder "
echo " "
echo "3. Point it to the /home/guest/Downloads/jre-*.tar.gz file "
echo "   and run it. It takes a moment to start and several to end. "
echo " "
echo "4. When it ends press Enter to copy the jre-*.xzm file to the "
echo "   $MODULES folder."
echo " "
echo "Disregard the following Firefox errors. "

We were so close.

This is what works.

Code: Select all

firefox "http://www.java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp" > /dev/null 2>&1 &
