 |
|
I need to run openbox as a minimal de and after it has done loading, I need it to run a script
I thought of doing the following:
| Code: |
#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/openbox-session
sh foo
|
will that work?

just a reminder

That's the place you put your stuff to be run after Openbox is up. Use sleep command to delay your foo if Openbox is not ready yet. |
question is, how much time to put in the sleep

the content of /etc/X11/Sessions/openbox is /usr/bin/openbox-session
