I cannot figure out why the scripts in xinit.d aren't running on
startup... I have Mandrake 7.2 set up to automatically start
enlightenment under my user id so I don't have to login manually if
I just turn on my machine. The scripts in /etc/X11/xinit.d don't seem
to run if I'm logged in that way... However, if I log out and log back
in manually, they do run... This sounds like a bug with the auto login
thingy...
I changed some of my startup services not to run some unnecessary
things, which *may* have been when this all started, although since this
is very fresh install, I don't know if it was a problem before I made
those modifications...
I discovered the problem when I noticed that imwheel wasn't running
when I was logged in from just booting up. Which brings my to another
point (I hope the mandrake maintainer for this is reading). The script
in xinit.d named "imwheel" needs to be called "start_imwheel" or
something... The reason is that, I'm a developer and I like to have '.'
at the beginning of my path so I can run executables that I just
compiled. Well, the "BINARY=$(which imwheel)" line in
/etc/xinit.d/imwheel finds itself when '.' is on the path before
/usr/bin... Just a minor detail.... A simple fix: just rename
/etc/xinit.d/imwheel
Thanks,
Davy
