I tried adding it to the /etc/skel/.xinitrc & .bashrc

.xinitrc doesn't seem to work & .bashrc only runs when I open aterm

Anyone know where I can put it?


Incase it helps, the script starts cupsd then installs a printer with lpadmin.

Thanks in advance

Since it requires root power, it should be run from /opt/bootlocal.sh
