System wide root run scripts use /opt/bootlocal.sh
User run non-X scripts use /home/dsl/.profile ( of course you could use sudo)
User run X scripts use /home/dsl/.xinitrc (again you could also use sudo here too) |

ahh, great to learn about .profile, I was looking for such. Instead, I clumsily placed non-X stuff in .xinirc.
Edit: I found no .profile. I created one in /home/dsl/, but that seems to have no effect. (back to .initrc)
Thanks,
Jörg |

When is this invoked? I hope not every time a bash is started, like .bashrc or such.
The content confuses me, it checks for runlevel and some ssh stuff, only then does startx. I guess this is to determine a successful boot. Should we place our stuff inside the if's, too? |
