You probably need to use "start on started xsession" since vnc requires a running xserver?

Success!!!

The "start on started xsession" did the trick!

Thanks everyone!

I hadn't heard that one, but what the hell.

So, I copied the start sym-link to /etc/rc2.d and rebooted.

Still no vnc processes running at boot.

Maemo 5 uses upstart I think (I dont have an N900... yet) so make sure the rc script has the right service comments and then run update-rc.d I think

Hello,

I have a problem with event.d.
I have:

Code:

Nokia-N900-42-11:/etc/event.d# cat proximityd
start on started dbus
stop on stopped dbus
respawn

script
        exec /usr/sbin/proximityd
        sleep 5
end script

and

Code:

-rw-r--r--    1 root     root          114 Dec 17 21:42 proximityd

Running

Code:

/usr/sbin/proximityd

from CL works fine. However, app is not started on boot. Any ideas what to do/to check?

hey hopbeat!

did you manage to get the script working on started dbus (or startup or anywhen else)?!

i have nearly the same problem.

it's working from terminal calling with "sh script" but doesn't do anything when called by event.d on startup.
(if it's actually called by event.d ... ://)

@b666m, yes, we are using this in proximityd and shortcutd:

Code:

start on XSESSIONS_STARTING
stop on stopped hal
#stop on stopped dbus
respawn
respawn limit 15 3

script

        ## get dbus session bus address
        sleep 2
        PATH="/bin/:/usr/bin"
        pids=`pgrep dbus-daemon`
        for pid in $pids; do
        FILE=`cat /proc/$pid/environ | perl -pe 's/\x0/\n/g'|grep SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS_FILE \
                |sed -e 's/SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS_FILE=//g'`
        done
        eval `cat $FILE`

        export DISPLAY=:0.0
        exec su user -c "exec /usr/sbin/shortcutd"
        sleep 5

end script

If I can help with anything else, just ask!

Any idea if it would be possible to run a script every time network connection is estabilished? That action doesn’t emit any event.

Figured it out myself…just put the script to /etc/network/if-up.d. Works!

Hi guys, do you know what start condition I need to use to launch a script as late as possible during a boot? I would prefer to have the acutal script in MyDocs, so it needs to be mounted at the execution time..
Would start on started xsession do? Or is there something better fitting? Maybe start on started hildon-desktop?

i believe the latter (hildon-desktop) is the latest possible event to hook on.
but you won't have any luck placing your scripts on MyDocs, unless you reformat it to ext2/ext3, because VFAT doesn't support the executable flag. just so you know
