Hello All, I'm trying to create a setup whereby when a user starts up the computer, he is forced to log on after which emc2 is launched automatically and when emc2 is closed this ends the session, logs the user off, and shuts down the computer. (Essentially, I would like to run linux computer with emc2 installed on it as a single purpose machine - industrial controller.) To re-cap, the important factors are: 0. user is forced to log on, upon which emc2 starts automatically 1. user cannot open any other programs (while emc2 is running) 2. he is logged out when emc2 exits (and computer shuts down) 3. ideally, some sort of graphical logon is used
I'm considering using Debian or Ubuntu. I want to run emc2 in full screen, so I believe there should be no need for a window manager. I've been playing with starting linux in text mode and then starting emc2 with startx, but without success... I'm sure there is someone who has tried something like this before. I've looked through the docs and archives but without much luck. I would greatly appreciate being pointed in the right direction.
