I have been trying unsuccessfully to launch XMMS automatically on boot, or alternatively whenever any user logs in. I use several different windows managers so a wm-specific solution such as using ~/Desktop/Autostart won't work for me. I've searched this list for ideas, and have tried:
* "xmms -p /home/warren/.xmms/xmms.m3u" in /etc/rc.local. I've tried it both as the last line and as the next to last line. Fails silently. * "exec xmms -p /home/warren/.xmms/xmms.m3u" in ~/.xinitrc. Fails silently. * "xmms -p /home/warren/.xmms/xmms.m3u" in ~/.bashrc. Works, but annoyingly restarts XMMS ever time I open a terminal, which is often. Yes, the command "xmms -p /home/warren/.xmms/xmms.m3u" given manually in a terminal does work. What else might I try? -- Warren Post Santa Rosa de Copán, Honduras http://www.srcopan.vze.com/
