That's perfectly normal behavior, you have to make jivelite start on
boot.
I don't know where your ubuntu is running on but the way to make it
start on a debian distro (and maybe Ubuntu) goes as following:
Install Xorg and “LXDE-Core”:
Code:
--------------------
sudo apt-get install xorg lxde-core
--------------------
After that we must make the system auto login:
Code:
--------------------
sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/[email protected]
--------------------
And change the "ExecStart=" line in the "[Service]" section to this
(with foo as example name):
Code:
--------------------
ExecStart=-/sbin/agetty --autologin foo --noclear %I $TERM
--------------------
CTRL X to save it.
For automatic `startx` edit “.profile” in your home
directory:
Code:
--------------------
sudo nano .profile
--------------------
And add this snippet to the end of the file:
Code:
--------------------
[ "$(tty)" = "/dev/tty1" ] && exec startx
--------------------
CTRL X to save it.
Now set the correct default.target to ensure the system boots to the
console (TTY) rather than to a display manager:
Code:
--------------------
sudo systemctl set-default multi-user.target
--------------------
To reverse this change, reset the default.target with (leave this for
now otherwise jivelite will fail to start):
Code:
--------------------
sudo systemctl set-default graphical.target
--------------------
Now finally autostart JiveLite by editing the following file:
Code:
--------------------
sudo nano /usr/bin/startlxde
--------------------
Scroll to the bottom of the it and you’ll see the last line says
this:
Code:
--------------------
exec /usr/bin/lxsession -s LXDE-pi -e LXDE
--------------------
Change it to this by putting a # sign in front of that line
Code:
--------------------
#exec /usr/bin/lxsession -s LXDE-pi -e LXDE
--------------------
Add another line below it that says this (with foo as example name):
Code:
--------------------
exec /home/foo/jivelite/bin/jivelite
--------------------
CTRL X to save it.
Reboot your system and hopefully it's working.
