Guessing here, try adding
Code:
sleep 100000
to the end of your script.

Thanks for the tip, but still nothing. I thought I try something simple, but I cant even do this with a script:
1. Start x terminal
2. run the command
ls

I think explicitly calling osso-xterm with an exec flag from the shell script should do what you are saying here. Something like this:

Code:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/osso-xterm -e "nohup x11vnc -forever"
Note: don't use the "&" flag, or the xterm will spawn off an independent x11vnc process and immediately close!

Edit: Or not. I just tried running osso-xterm -e "fennec &", and it worked exactly the same as just osso-xterm -e "fennec". Oh well, guess you can't use that sort of flag with -e...

Thanks for the tip, but not really there yet This works great!
Code:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/osso-xterm -e "fennec"
This don't work, shows up on screen and the dissapears directly
Code:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/osso-xterm -e "nohup x11vnc -forever"
Maybe I need to do something else when its a "terminal command"?

try this, make a script (say "xvncnohup.sh)":
Code:
#!/bin/sh
nohup x11vnc -forever &
/bin/sh
Put this script in /usr/bin
make a desktop file with the line
Exec=osso-xterm "/usr/bin/xvncnohup.sh"

hi..what if i want to show the output of the script?for example,

on the .desktop entry, the exec line is like this

Code:
Exec=/bin/busybox sh -c 'echo /path/to/script.sh | sudo gainroot'
however, it didn't show the output..just a blank(black) with the loading icon, then closes..

i put the script at /home/user..

how do i get the .desktop to show the output of the script?
