    How to run a pgm *after* "knoppix" user is logged

    I'm trying to get a pgm to run in a KDE konsole window *after*
    Knoppix automatically logs in the default "knoppix" user.
    I.E. I simply want to save the user the work of having to
    start a konsole session and type a command.
    I appended these commands to /etc/profile:
    konsole & (just a test cmd to try to get *any* konsole to display)
    konsole -e="x.bin" &
    But neither had any effect (no konsoles displayed).
    My *other* /etc/profile commands execute just fine.
    But I simply cannot get a konsole window to open.
    Any help would be *greatly* appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Greetings markgilmore,

    KDE has an Autostart folder.
    /home/knoppix/.kde/Autostart
    Note: .kde is a hidden file -- you must use
    view and select to show hidden files.

    On boot a script or link in this folder will start.

    Be sure to use sudo to run from root if needed.

    To open a Root Shell
    rxvt -T Root -bg black -fg green -cr red -ls -e sudo -s

    kfmclient can be used to open files with a specified program.
    see kfmclient --commands and kfmclient --help

    But perhaps this is now what you are asking?
