ctkarch-autostartx
This systemd service unit automatically runs an X11 session at boot.
Sources / installation
git clone http://ctkarch.org/git/autostartx cd autostartx makepkg -si
The package is also available on AUR.
Usage instructions are displayed when installing the package.
Feature history
- 2.0 directly runs `startx` as the specified user with his shell.
- 1.0 uses agetty and just autologins the specified user into his shell — adding a line to the shell's profile file is necessary.
You can checkout the tag corresponding to the version you prefer before running makepkg. (for example: `git checkout 1.0`)
Future changes
- Drop the configuration file and make this a parameterized service instead, when https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73290 will be implemented.
