Where is xwindow start script

jwzumwalt · #1 (**permalink**) 01-01-2009

I am using a Mandrake spinoff (PCLinux) and would like to have a yakuake terminal started
when I launch xwin. Where is the start up script?
Thanks JZ

Depends on the desktop environment, if you don't have an existing $HOME/.xinitrc file.

If using KDE, look in $HOME/.kde/Autostart .
Not sure about GNOME.

I had tried...

/etc/x11/.xsession
/etc/x11/xint/.xinitrc
/etc/x11/xint/.Xclients
$HOME/.xinitrc
$HOME/.Xclients

So when I posted on the "expert" forum and the moderator
moved the message to the "dummies" I had to swallow my pride

the $HOME/.kde/Autostart WORKED!

Thanks
