I'm having fighting a losing battle with what I though would be simple.
My goal is this: Show a zenity progress or info dialog until the system obtains an ip address, then close the dialog and continue through the rest of the script.
Right now I've got the following:
just grabbing the number of ip addresses.
Now I thought I was dictating that if the number of ip addresses is 0, keep checking until it isn't; also show a zenity dialog. Then, when the number no longer equals 0, exit the loop and kill the zenity box. With the exception of zenity automatically closing, everything else works, as if I switch to echoing right in the terminal it works perfectly. I think this could be useful for a lot of different applications requiring user action, but not requiring an explicit "ok" from the user after the action has been taken.
Anyone care to educate me?
