    starting X programs automatically

    Hello,
    I am building a custom knoppix CD which uses fluxbox as it's window manager, what I would like to do is after fluxbox is finished initializing, automatically launch mozilla/firebird to a documentation page. Thanks in advance, hopefully this will not be an rtfm post...

    Create a script named .xsession in /home/knoppix with the command for starting mozilla inside.

    Stop X via <ctrl><alt><backspace>.
    Start X via /etc/init.d/xsession start and see if mozilla starts up.

    See http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8157 for customizing home directory.

    Good luck.

    This doesn't work with Knoppix 3.4 c't edition. With 3.3 it's ok.
