Hi
Does anyone know how to get LinuxCNC to run a startup script at logon?
Ive installed from the image so my system is debian. I've created a script to remap keyboard keys using xkb as per a guide online but it's doesn't run automatically. I've tried numerous methods to get the script to work including putting the script in;
/etc/X11/Xsession.d/
Which should automatically be sourced and run but it doesn't.
I've also tried adding the script path to the initrc file as well as the /etc/X11/Xsession script that should be run at logon.
Any help would be appreciated.

Applications menu => Settings => Session and Startup => Aplication autostart => add
on command place the linuxcnc laucher, something like
/usr/bin/linuxcnc '/home/jtc/linuxcnc/configs/sim.axis.gladevcp/gladevcp_panel.ini'
I tested it now and worked.

I had trouble making that work. (maybe because I didn't quote the path to the config. Butwill open the last config chosen from the picker, and that is working fine for me. (letter lower-case L not number 1)
