[Solved]Need command to start PCC from Terminal
« on: May 09, 2012, 06:33:42 PM »
Hi Folks:
I need to know what the command is to access PCLX control center from Terminal?
While reconfiguring my graphic card, it seems I screwed up some where, and now I get a strange screen on boot-up. After boot-up I get 4 windows on my laptop monitor with unreadable text and strange  different colors. Although I have access to menu, but any windows I open is unreadable. I figured that I need to access the PCC through Terminal and see I can revert back my graphic card configuration. Any other suggestions is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

drakconf is the command to call pcc

Thanks everyone!
Used PCC. All is OK now.
BTW, drakeconf and PCC they both open up PCLXOS Control center.

On a normal installation pcc (/usr/bin/pcc) is a symlink to drakconf.
