Kubuntu 8.10 boot Autostart How ?

[packet]

Hello All,

I am new to Ubuntu as well as kubuntu ... I installed kubuntu8.10 USB on a 2 GB Flash .
its booting well but i need following things to run my application !!!!!

In Knoppix5.1.1 USB ,while booting it will search for a knoppix.sh file in Knoppix directory to execute user commands . knoppix.sh file is like post-configuration shell script. and we can put a our application script in the path /etc/skel/.kde/Autostart .

my question is how to i get in kubuntu ? is there any other option to run my application script in the boot up ?

thnaks

Have you tried working with /etc/rc.local ?

I do my on-boot stuff in there.

I have not tried ...

let me explain some more points ....

In Knoppix5.1.1 USB ,while boot up it will search knoppix.sh

the file contains as follows

#!/bin/sh

sudo mkdir /mnt/USB
chmod 777 /mnt/USB

sudo cp /cdrom/knoppix/application1.sh /etc/skel/.kde/Autostart

sudo cp /cdrom/knoppix/application2.sh /etc/skel/.kde/Autostart

etc

after boot up the applications will run automatically.

Before inserting USB to boot we need to put a knoopix.sh file in knoppix directory.
( i.e you need to put all the application.sh files and knoppix.sh in a /cdrom/knoppix )


Is there any such file we need to put in a ubuntu or kubuntu ?

If you want those commands to run on boot every time you just put them in /etc/rc.local

I think that's what you want.
