    execute command without login

    Hello,

    here is my question: I want to start my Ubuntu 10.04 and without logging in I need a command started. The command is setxkbmap ....

    So, I will not put the command in my .profile, nor in my .bashrc, because I am not going to login.

    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    Do you always want it to run when the system boots? If so, then put it in /etc/rc.local which is a shell script designed for such a purpose.
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
