[Solved] Gateway desktop background notice message is god-awful

Yes, there was no logic, the script was only for test. The following is more “whonixlike”.

That one works really great! It should be packaged as gateway-first-run-notice and installed by default in Whonix 9?[/quote]
Probably not reasonable to have a separate package. Putting this into a general gateway-usablity package seems more appropriate.

It ended up here:
https://github.com/Whonix/anon-gw-first-run-notice

Fixed a bug:

Please review.

Still shows a console window in background.

Could you fix that please, troubadour?

Difficult to fix, because I do not see anything in the background. I am testing in Workstation, but that should not make a difference.

Can you see it when generic-gui-message is called from open-link-confirmation (or tb-updater and tb-starter now)?

I forgot to say, the terminal window only happened when anon-gw-first-run-notice was automatically started after boot.

Most likely fixed (non-python related bug):
https://github.com/Whonix/anon-gw-first-run-notice/commit/a3a8d12256aa265c438c3af38dab8a837b83c401

Are this changed implemented in the last release (8.6.2.8)?

Yes! :slight_smile:
