First of all: please no private emails - if somebody else has same problem, I have to answer again (so I added meta-oe lo CC) I see the following options: * enter startxfce from console (disadvantage: you are still root operator and dbus connections are blocked as root so there might be issues) * add a display manager (e.g lxdm) to your image. That does the job for you to select/login an unprivileged user (you might need to create one) * I bet there is some headless manager/script available doing the (auto)login stuff. I don't know such because I am always using lxdm (or sddm from meta-qt5-extra). Hope that helps Andreas -- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
