Running applications

[davbotjohnson]

For some reason only some of my applications will work, would this be caused by insufficient ram? Thanks!

Yes, that might be the case. Do they work if you start them individually?

[davbotjohnson]

Sorry, I don't understand, do you mean like just clicking on them in the menu or like starting them in the terminal or or something?

I'm sorry I misread your question. Starting the applications in the terminal should be a good start. Are there any error messages?

[davbotjohnson]

I'm not sure how to run applications from the terminal, how do you do that?

You can get to a terminal in two different ways:

• directly on the device: open Tools > Terminal
• over USB:
  • connect the device to your computer
  • start network: USB > Device > Ethernet Gadget
  • start telnet: Network > Telnet Server
  • open a terminal on your computer (enter Win+R, cmd on Windows)
  • connect over telnet: telnet 192.168.0.200

Afterwards, enter the name of the application you like to start. In nxmenu.cfg you can see how the menu entries are mapped to commands (e.g. Dune 2 -> dune2.sh)
