Hello, I was wondering if there is a way of starting an application
automatically on starting a vm in qubes. Say I want to start thunderbird
once the 'work' vm starts up. I usually do this using a cronjob so I type
crontab -e
in a terminal in 'work' and add the line:
@reboot /usr/bin/thunderbird
I save and exit. I read the following page
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/dom0-tools/qvm-service/
So I typed
qvm-service -e work crond
But either restarting the vm in 'Qubes vm manager' or stopping and
starting, or rebooting the laptop doesn't make thunderbird start when
'work' does.
Am I doing something wrong here? is there any other way to start
applications once a vm starts?
