Xwrapper Question

[mckinleysh]

I am making a custom SuSE terminal client.

I have a minimal graphics system installed with python and rdesktop.

I am wanting to modify the inittab to start my own xwrapper script on bootup. I was successfully able to do this with fedora by editing this line in the inittab file:

x:5:respawn:/etc/X11/prefdm -nodaemon

I was able to replace the path to the prefdm file to a custom script to start rdesktop at boot up.

However the scripts in SuSE look very complex and I cannot find where to enter this custom script.

Any insight on this?

Woops, I did forget to mention that I am running SuSE 10.

BUT, I figured it out.

I change the /etc/init.d/xdm file from:

FIND:
xdm) DISPLAYMANAGER=/usr/X11R6/bin/xdm
REPLACE WITH:
xdm) DISPLAYMANAGER=/path/to/xwrapper script

FIND:
if [ "$DISPLAYMANAGER" = "/usr/X11R6/bin/xdm" ]; then
REPLACE WITH:
if [ "$DISPLAYMANAGER" = "/path/to/xwrapper script" ]; then



If anyone is interested in the whole setup PM me.

EDIT: Seems there is something in the xdm script that sets up the keyboard, because now it does not work....
