I think this is a good idea. I recently set up a Debian potato system to be a web terminal, thus I had to run a startx on boot. However, /etc/init.d/rmnologin is by default run at 99, which is bad if I want to have stuff happen *after* all other initalization. My solution was to create /etc/init.d/local: #!/bin/sh run-parts /etc/rc.local and do: update-rc.d -f rmnologin remove update-rc.d rmnologin start 98 2 3 4 5 . update-rc.d local start 99 2 3 4 5 . I just plopped my startx script into /etc/rc.local. -- Colin Walters <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://web.verbum.org/levanti PGP Fingerprint: A580 5AA1 0887 2032 7EFB 19F4 9776 6282 C207 843A
