Other Help Topics :: Getting the daemon to start at boottime!



Does anybody know? (ico2 seems to know but i can't find the post in which he describes it)
I assume you'd put it in /opt/bootlocal.sh
Patrick.... because your posts on Xfree86 setup were of indirect value to me I did some digging for you...

On page 12 of the bootcamp I found this from ico2

heres another one:

Q: how do i make xscreensaver load on startup in my hdinstall.

A: here goes:

install the xscreensavergtk dsl, open scite and load up /home/dsl/.xinitrc, edit it and just above the "fluxbox" line add the line: "xscreensaver -nosplash&" (without the quotes but with the &).
ctrl-alt-del, startx and away you go.
you can use the menu item for xscreensaver in order to edit prefs.




good luck

Thnx man!
Yes this works for me for xscreensaver and a few WM dock app .DSLs but, for some reason, 'Wmmoonclock &' does not  work on any line position in the .xinitrc file.   It just does not open up on boot.  Any ideas?
