Auto start Suse 12.3 and KDE
 

Hi,

I would like a user account to AutoLogin to the KDE desktop (not just terminal) and launch a pre configured Nagios url from that machine... ?

A lot of the documentation out there suggests rc.conf but then again this appears outdated now.

What is the best way to achieve this?

Pre-configured Nagios url?

clarify please...

If kdm is installed and in use. You can enable auto login by opening systemsettings, going to 'login screen', 'convenience' tab, tick 'enable auto-login' change 'pre select user' to 'specified' and select the user you want to auto login. tick 'enable password-less logins' and then tick the name of the desired user.

I don't know what Nagios is, so i can't help you with that. Good luck.

You should have an Autostart directory in /home/user/.kde4/ where you can put a script to start Nagios. Check the link below:
