Hi,Is there a reason why the Chromium Browser launches fine when I type chromium-browser in a shell, but doesn't when I put the same command into a script to run at boot time? According to the error message, it can't find the display mode, so I'm guessing that it works because I'm not in a true terminal when it works (it's Aterm, which is a graphical app) and I am when the script is running. Or is it something else? What do I need to do to get it to work? I'm assuming I will need to do some magic with xhost, etc, but some guidancce would be useful.
