Broken Startup-folder

#1 Post by jogreer »

Hello.
For a while back I have noticed that the files in /root/Startup/ aren't executed on X startup so my question is where is the code for executing the files in Startup. I guess there is a "for each $@ in Startup/"-line somewhere but I can't find it after a couple of weeks of searching. My 5.2.0 works fine with executing the Startups, but on this 5.1.1 it doesn't work.

What file makes the call for executing Startup files?

Thanks in advance,
Jonathan

/usr/sbin/delayedrun

Its called from ~/.xinitrc

But don't you think it's better to see what caused the issue?


Perhaps fsck the drive and pupsave (if applicable)

Next time don't scan the entire computer. If you use frugal install, you only need to scan /initrd/pup_ro2 :idea:

Oh, yeah!

anyway...

Code: Select all

/usr/sbin/delayedrun
#100513 jwm tray now uses freememapplet_tray and blinky_tray. NOTE: future, move these to /root/Startup.
#100517 freememapplet_tray moved to /root/Startup.
if [ -d /root/Startup ];then
 for a in /root/Startup/*
All the lines which have "/Startup"

hmmm.. i got some very interesting results from this.
