makeing an app start at fluxbox startup
I need a program to start when fluxbox starts what to i need to add to init to make this happen.
|
touch $home/.xinitrc
after that (ensuring it exists, and if not, create it) open the file .xinitrc in your home directory with a text editor, like vim $home/.xinitrc and add there a line: exec /path/to/your/app that should do...the file .xinitrc should be run every time X starts, which means that when you start fluxbox (and X) it is run :) |
If you want your program to start only when you start Fluxbox and not everytime X starts then :
touch ~/.fluxbox/apps Then add this in apps [startup] {path/to/your/app} |
hmm...yup, but how many times you start fluxbox but not X? :)
just a pop-up-idea..but anyway, after thinking it's better to use fluxbox's file, because when you use .xinitrc it seems that you must sort things a bit...the last line seems to define the app that's left running as the "final" process and it ends the same time as X session ends... |
