Eee PC boot setup services
January 21, 2008 - 10:08 pm Previously heard that there are ways to let Eee PC in the boot when normal services (service), for example, dbus, bluetooth.
It was mentioned recently to see / etc / fastservices, give it a try today, really ah, the original fastinit first call / usr / sbin / services.sh, the / usr / sbin / services.sh be strong, it is the only 11 will be the implementation of the "boot", in which:
1. Network parameter settings
2. Load modules, such as USB
3. Implementation of the acpid (hotkey is the service)
4. Finally, a sound card to open today is the focus of the code is as follows:
if [-f / etc / fastservices]; then
for i in `cat / etc / fastservices`; do
/ usr / sbin / invoke-rc.d $ i start
done
fi
Means to find / etc / fastservices this file, put inside his party and his party was to open the boot services, for example, we want to use Bluetooth, it is necessary to dbus, bluetooth two lines.

Simply put, is the boot time will be recorded in the / etc / fastservices
We have to do is to the bottom three lines
sudo / etc / init.d / dbus start
sudo / etc / init.d / bluetooth start
kbluetooth &
Written into the file, right?

No, that / etc / fastservices is used to implement "programs", so the content should be:
dbus
bluetooth
It has 2 line, it will be carried out in the boot, kbluetooth is the application or to open their own.

Re: Isabella
You can start KDE bluetooth support by using the "kbluetooth" command in the terminal.

Re: Isabella
From your output I think you haven't really install "kdebluetooth" programs, so you need to:
1. Add XEPC.org line in / etc / apt / sources.list as instructed in another post
2. Afterward, run "sudo apt-get update" to update the database
3. Then run "sudo apt-get install kdebluetooth" to really install the programs.

That is not to enter, and that is what I found / etc / fastservices this file.
You can see the screen shots on OK.

Hi Fai,
may i ask one more thing about this topic i can evolve the bluetooth since i bought a bluetooth adapter, but i cannot arouse the command with the icon on right hand bottom with the fast services command, can you show me the way to make it appear ? On the bottom bar when i switched on the eeepc?

Hi Isabella,
Sorry the bluetooth program inside the bar is not "system service" so you need to use command to start it (the easy way), it can be made to start automatically but it is very complicated for you, and as we know, Eee PC has little resources, so I prefer start it when we need.
So using a terminal to start "kbluetooth" is the easiest way at the moment.
