Knoppix startup hassles Mark Gilmore Thu, 30 Oct 2003 09:00:11 -0800

I added these commands to /etc/profile, but I still get no console
window upon bootup and auto-login:
         cd /home/knoppix/ecs                                    (works)
         echo x > 1.tmp                                          (works)
         konsole & (a test - trying to get *anything* to come 
up)        (nothing)
         konsole -e="ecs.bin" &                                  (nothing)
I know the command are being executed, as 1.tmp is being created.
If I enter the commands manually, they work.
Any ideas ?
To reiterate: All I want to do is to startup ECS in a console window
when Knoppix logs in the "knoppix" user. All my other login-init cmds
in /etc/profile work fine.
Thanks,

Mark Gilmore
