Title: Open Remmina panel on boot and USB redirection
Post by: ekapco on February 19, 2013, 01:51:18 AM
I'm new to TCL so please forgive me if asking a stupid question.

I installed TCL and have sound and remmina working.
Is there a way to have the remmina panel opened automatically on boot ?

And I tried to get Autmounting for USB keys working but sofar no luck.
I need a script to have all USB insertions available for redriecting through remmina.
In other Linux clients all show up under a media directory which then can be shared on de RDP session.

Anyone who can help with this ??

Regards Erik ???

Hi ekapco
To start automatically, try this:
Create the following file in  /home/tc/.X.d
Code: [Select]
(
until ifconfig | grep -q "Bcast" ;  do sleep 1 ; done
remmina
) &

Tinycore does not automount USB thumb drives. This has come up before. Go to the search page and try to find
some of the previous posts on this subject. If you don't find a suitable answer, start a new thread for that question.

Change the to


(
until ifconfig | grep -q "Bcast" ;  do sleep 1 ; done
remmina
) &


or your .xsession will hang at this point until the network is up.
The "()" runs the script in a sub shell, and the "&" runs it in the background.

Hi ekapco
Without seeing exactly what you've done, it would be difficult to tell. You might want to take a look at the USB entries
in  /etc/fstab.  Also, what kind of file system is on the USB drives?
