I am in the late stages of development on an instrument project
which is run on Linux. The system will be used for production
testing as well engineering testing and will be used by people
who are not computer literate. In some cases, the operatore
will have no reason to have access to the instrument.
I would prefer the system, upon power up, log itself into the
proper account, and auto start Xwindow and the application. Is
this a realistic objective?
At present, I have not been able to get to computer auto start
Xwindows invoking the fvwm window manager. If I change the run
level to 5 in /etc/inittab, Xwindows starts with twm. It uses
xdm to start Xwindows. I have not been able to find what specifies
which window manager xdm is going to use. Any suggestions?
I have been starting Xwindows with startx which calls xinit, using
/root/.fvwmrc to set up fvwm.
Thanks,
