Otavio,

I added a file to the distribution that should do this but for some
reason it's not being loaded. I uploaded test packages to Alioth.
Also, everything is on svn. The script is:

debiansid:~# cat /etc/console-tools/config.d/splashy-console-tools.sh
#!/bin/sh
# $Revision: 1.2 $
# Luis Mondesi < lemsx1 at gmail.com >
#
# DESCRIPTION: checks to see if Splashy is running and exits
# USAGE: $0
# LICENSE: GPL
echo "loading splashy-console-tools.sh" >> /tmp/splashy.log
if pidof splashy > /dev/null; then
    echo "exiting splashy-console-tools.sh" >> /tmp/splashy.log
    exit 0
fi
echo "done with splashy-console-tools.sh" >> /tmp/splashy.log

Note that I added those echo lines for debugging purposes on my end
here, just so that I can tell whether this is being called at all.

If anybody else can test this, please be my guest. Going to bed!

discernimiento, porque el tenerla como ganancia es mejor que tener la
plata como ganancia; y el tenerla como producto, [mejor] que el oro
mismo" (Prov 3:13-14).
