- I posted the question about sndplay and nppower off in the rc.local
- script.
-
- I tried out the tips and the solution is in both cases:
- put a sleep command and then the other.
-
- (sleep 10; /usr/bin/sndplay ...) &
- (sleep 10; /usr/etc/nppower off) &
-
- I guess you have to wait until the loginwindow process is
- correctly started and then al the "services" have their correct
- behaviour.
-
- sndplay and nppower start now after the loginwindow appears.
- The printer is now "Private" after logging in, and that's
- what I wanted.
-
- Thanks for the tips,
