Question Start conky and add module at system startup. How can I do this?


Hi people!

A few time ago, I came here ask for help with my Conky.

So, my Conky needed the Coretemp, and a friend of LQ told me to run modprobe, and it works greate!

So, no every time I start my system, I need to run the modprobe to add the module to Kernel.

How can I put the coretemp to start every startup? (I think there is somenthing to do with a file on the rc.module at /etc/rc.d/, but I'm afraid to do something stupid...)

With this solved, I want to make the conky running after start of the system. How can I do this?

Thanks for your patience!

Place the command in rc.local.

Depends upon the desktop environment. If you are using the $HOME/.conkyrc config file in the user's home directory, then use the appropriate autostart feature of the desktop or window manager.
