startup

livarp startup applications are launched from two file types: your ~/.xinitrc and the 'autostart' scripts placed in your ~/bin/start/*_start.sh.

~/.xinitrc

this file is read by xinit and launch your X interface and some commons apps for the 9 sessions. here you can configure your dualscreen, your touchpad, your startup wall or pass livarp in single-session mode without editing system files.

• dualscreen: all sessions support dualscreen. to make it easier to configure, a little script is placed in your ~/bin/dualdetect.sh (edit and adapt it to your configuration). then uncomment the dualscreen section in your ~/.xinitrc.
• touchpad: for laptop users, touchpad/trackpad configuration is handled by synclient. the tapbutton1 feature is disable by default. to modify *pad behaviour, edit your ~/.xinitrc. more infos? man synclient.
• single session:if you always use the same session, you can edit your ~/.xinitrc to launch this specific session directly without display the session-selector. the file includes this option:

  ## launch single session ##
  ## replace "your-wm" by your favorite window-manager
  #exec ck-launch-session ~/bin/start/your-wm_start.sh
  
  ## launch session selector script
  exec /usr/local/bin/session_selector.sh

autostart scripts

the livarp 9 sessions are launched from scripts in your ~/bin/start/ directory.
if you want to midify autostart applications, just edit thoose files. each session have a menu entry to do that.
note that livarp doesn't use regular Pekwm and Fluxbox autostart-scripts, but you can do it as ou want.
