PlayOnLinux 3.1 Beta 1! We are looking for testers!

Saturday 6 September 2008 at 15:15

The first beta of your favourite program's version 3.1 is out.

Today, I want to test only one new function, that's why only one new feature has been added in this beta.

Without further delay, I present you playonlinux-daemon

PlayOnLinux-Daemon is a program you can run since POL 3.1 (at your computer's boot if you want) which will be able to do various tasks in real time. At this time, playonlinux-daemon is able to detect the presence of a CD-ROM in your drive.

To proceed, after installing the latest version, execute it in a terminal with the following command:
playonlinux-daemon
Warning: Don't quit the terminal, else playonlinux-daemon will be stopped too.

Then, insert a CD-ROM in your drive and a PlayOnLinux automatic execution assistant will appear automatically.

To quit the daemon, the following command will work
playonlinux-daemon --kill

Thank-you to report to me the results of your tests for this new feature
