I assume you'd put it in /opt/bootlocal.sh

Patrick.... because your posts on Xfree86 setup were of indirect value to me I did some digging for you...

On page 12 of the bootcamp I found this from ico2

heres another one:

Q: how do i make xscreensaver load on startup in my hdinstall.

A: here goes:

install the xscreensavergtk dsl, open scite and load up /home/dsl/.xinitrc, edit it and just above the "fluxbox" line add the line: "xscreensaver -nosplash&" (without the quotes but with the &).
ctrl-alt-del, startx and away you go.
you can use the menu item for xscreensaver in order to edit prefs.




good luck

The DSL Forum Search default is 'OR'
If you search for "cat dog" you will get all "cat" posts and all "dog" posts.
If you search for "cat AND dog" you will only find results that contain BOTH "cat" and "dog"
Add '*' for wildcards, " cat* and dog* "

Yes this works for me for xscreensaver and a few WM dock app .DSLs but, for some reason, 'Wmmoonclock &' does not  work on any line position in the .xinitrc file.   It just does not open up on boot.  Any ideas?
