Title: Custom extension 'myEnxt.tcz:/etc/skel/.X.d' do not load file.
Post by: ipmeel on October 18, 2016, 11:39:54 PM

I have created an own extension 'myEnxt.tcz' and put a file 'startup' in it at '/etc/skel/.X.d/' that call a script '/opt/myDir/myScript.sh'. It also put a file  '/opt/myDir/myScript.sh' in it, added the extension to 'onboot.lst'.
It doesn't load the file 'startup' file into '~/tc/.X.d/' directory, but it load 'myScript.sh' in '/opt/myDir/.

If it put the file 'startup' file in 'Xlibs.tcz:/ect/skel/.X.d/', it is working fine.
Unable to figure-out, where I am making mistake?
Please help.

Hi ipmeel
If your extension requires startup commands they should be placed in  /usr/local/tce.installed/myEnxt.

Hi Rich,
It requires startup after GUI.

You need to clarify what you mean with "doesn't load". Is the file not there, or is it there, but doesn't call your script?

The file 'startup' is not copied in directory 'Home/tc/.X.d/'.

Extension loading happens after setupHome, so you should probably copy it there in the startup script.
