gdesklets auto start display file and without first screen prompt
I am trying to edit the ~/.gdesklets/registry/config.db file to autostart a custom display after a new desktop deployment on first login. there are several issues/questions that arise out of this effort.
1) what causes the config.db to become config-*.db as that at times confused my effort use scripts to modify the config.db file. 2) how can i turn off the initial fist display welcome screen that says it only displays once? I do not see any relevant option to configure the the config.db pickle. 3) how can I determine or control the S'id12481538829742117' for example ID number? I am using a script to edit the display position to keep my display file exactly where I want it to be, but some times there is more than one ID number even though I am only using one display with gdesklets, presumably since I am copying a preconfigured config.db file to the newly deployed desktop and on first start, gdesklets generates a new id number to control my display. I need the pre delivered config file to use the correct id number. following is an example startup script for gdesklets so you can see what I am referring to. #!/bin/bash # Edit configuration to always show in the bottom right /usr/bin/sed -i -e "s/^(I.*/(I$[`xrandr | grep "*" | sed -e "s/x/ /" |awk '{ print $1 }'`-560]/" -e "s/^I.*/I$[`xrandr | grep "*" | awk '{ print $4 }'`-165]/" ~/.gdesklets/registry/config.db # Start gdesklets /usr/bin/gdesklets --no-tray-icon Thanks, Neal |
