marokFS-session is a script for Amarok, which enables users to launch Amarok with AmarokFS in fullscreen mode from KDM.
I recently had the chance to try out AmarokFS-session, a script designed to enhance the Amarok music player experience. With AmarokFS-session, users can start Amarok from KDM in fullscreen mode and run the application in a dedicated session.
AmarokFS-session has only two requirements: Amarok and Amarok Full Screen. Installation is quick and easy, simply execute "./install.sh" as root within the folder containing the "amarok.desktop" and "amarokFS-start.sh" files.
Using AmarokFS-session is also quite simple. After installation, all you need to do is choose the "AmarokFS" session from KDM and log in.
Should you need to uninstall AmarokFS-session, it's just as simple. Remove "amarokFS-start.sh" from "/usr/local/share/amarokFS/script/", delete the "script"-folder if it's empty, and delete "amarok.desktop" from "/usr/share/xsessions/".
One thing I particularly appreciated was the recent updates to the script. In this newest version, KWin is now included so users can easily switch playlists by pressing their Amarok access key.
Overall, I found AmarokFS-session to be a great addition to my music player setup. The dedicated session and fullscreen mode really enhance the Amarok experience.
