I have a simple script to run linuxcnc, similar to this... #!/bin/bash echo "Starting LinuxCNC" 2>&1 >> ~/linuxcnc.log linuxcnc myinifile.ini 2>&1 >> ~/linuxcnc.log echo "Starting LinuxCNC" 2>&1 >> ~/linuxcnc.log
That works fine when I run from the command line. However, I have my machine set up to launch this script from .xinitrc when it boots. In this case, the 2 echo commands appear in the log file, but the output of linuxcnc does not. (linuxcnc runs fine) I also have a line in /etc/rc.local to start x as me on boot... nohup su myusername - -c /usr/bin/startx Any ideas why this may be happening? _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
