I have done a number of searches here on the site and with google. I am trying to get dsl to load feh at start up and have entered it in the ~/.xinitrc file I tried time and time again to get it working then I decided to see if I could get the dillo getting stated off at boot just to see what might be going on so I put # before the command and it still came up at boot then I deleted the command all together. Dillo getting started still started at boot. as far as feh I did have & following the command(at the top of the file it says to add at also, but none have that in the file what is this referring to)? One question regarding the command I had the path to feh and then after that I put some options followed by the file path is that followed by & I have since erased this command to try to figure things out # For non-US Keyboards if [ ${KEYTABLE:0:2} != "us" ]; then xmodmap -e "clear Mod4" -e "add Mod5 = Mode_switch" & fi if [ "$ICONS" == 1 ]; then for x in `ls -1 .xtdesktop/*.hide 2>/dev/null`; do rm -f ${x%.*}; done iconsnap.lua &>/dev/null & xtdesk.sh fi if egrep -qv lowram /proc/cmdline 2>/dev/null; then torsmo 2>/dev/null & fi case $DESKTOP in Posted by bmenge on April 20 2007,22:06
I didn't have anything more than feh and unclutter on the machine so I just reinstalled and got things working?

I'm guessing that, for some reason, no backups were being made, so your changes weren't executed upon reboot.
