Re: Service to run user-owned init scripts at boot time?

I was wondering whether Fedora provides a package that'll provide this so I don't have to set up a solution myself. Thanks... This should work: cat /etc/rc.d/rc.local EOF for i in /home/*/.rc.local ; do user=${i#/home/} user=${user%/.rc.local} su $user -c $i done EOF Kevin Kofler This should work as long as all the prerequisite services have been started, such as mounting the file system. One other requirement is all users accounts are in /home. -pete -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

You want specific examples: And there are a multitude of specific examples where kde4 is better. This is certainly not constructive feedback. Sigh, if you like kde3, fine, stick with Fedora 8. It's about choice, NOT what is better about KDE4 its more about what is MISSING! If you can't understand that some users work in a specific way or need to work in a specific way then. There could be other reason why I want or might even need Fedora 9, but that is my choice. I would like a choice at least better KDE3.5 and KDE 4.x until 4.x has all the features of 3.5. I also think a complete previous revision should be supplied until the next revision is functionally equivalent. This will give USER the choice Please read the FAQ again. I would *love* to be able to provide just that, and asked developers point-blank if this is something possible(1) or supported. Answer was no. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/KDE/KDE4FAQ (1) without horrible hacks or FHS violations. Hmmm The FAQ provide some information, but not exactly what I was asking. What I really read was, that there was not enough resources to provide both KDE3.5 and KDE4.0 with ONLY one installed at a time. I didn't ask to have both kde4 kde3 installed at the same time. Yes, there will always be ways to shoot yourself in the foot. I'll consider this dead since there was a conscious decision to force this issue. I'll look at other distros or methods or means to obtain the features I need. so long... -- Rex -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
