Please read the book. http://tinycorelinux.net/book.html

Programs to run when starting X are placed in ~/.X.d

You put your start script in between the parameters of another command.

Change this:

Code: [Select]

[ -d "$HOME/.X.d" ] && find "$HOME/.X.d" -type f -print l while read F; do . "$F"; &
./autostart &
done

To this:

Code: [Select]

[ -d "$HOME/.X.d" ] && find "$HOME/.X.d" -type f -print | while read F; do . "$F"; done
$HOME/autostart &


Ironically, the comand you messed up is just what you need. q:

Thanks for the help Misalf & gerald_clark! I managed to make it work.

But... currently it start automatically but when I logoff it starting the script again.

What should I do in order to reboot the local machine when the user logoff from the terminal server?

B.T.W my scripts and texts are here:
