Login other bash ttys after logging in to one

http://unix.stackexchange.com – Is there a way to login certain (or all) ttys after logging into one? I don't want auto-login because I still want to login once (for security). I've looked into things like "screen" but they are rather cumbersome and don't work with some programs (e.g. fbgs). Is there a command to simulate logging in to other ttys? (HowTos)

I've currently got 2 ttys logging in automatically, but I need to launch a node script from one and a C program from another as soon as the device loads.

The device is a Raspberry Pi running Raspbian.

I had to reinstall xfce

I used yum reinstall xfce*

but this time xfce did not appear automatically in the gdm login

I looked for information and found that I could bypass gnome completely and load xfce through X by editing /etc/ttys and also creating a desktop in /usr/share/xsessions/xfce.desktop

I created the xsessions/xfce.desktop but my /etc/ttys is completely empty since it i

I've found that when logging in graphically the shell loading process works differently than logging in through the console.

Unable to login 35 weeks 5 days ago

I was initially attempting to solve issues related to systemd not being able to open the system_bus socket in /var/run/dbus/system_bus.

Writing this from an older Dell Notebook, ugpraded to 12.04 32-Bit, which works well.

My more modern Dell Notebook worked well for 1/2 day after upgrading to 12.04 64-Bit, now I'm having problems logging in:

System boots normally, (Unity) can enter my password, the login-screen reports 'Logging in....', but that's the end, won't log in even after 30 minutes - it just stays on the login screen.

Hello, I had my laptop set up to allow logging in with an AD account using winbind and samba. I had cached password login working too. After I upgraded from 13 to 14, now I cannot login to the gdm (xfce) using my AD account, but I CAN login using it on a text console, OR I can login with a local account and su to the AD account.

XBMC auto-login + startup 45 weeks 1 day ago

Heya guys,

I am wondering if there is a nice and easy way to get XBMC to auto-startup on login without kicking off the underlying window-manager (eg, gnome/KDE).

I can get the user XBMC auto-logging in using either KDM or GDM (the initial login managers), but I don't really want to have to wait for KDE/gnome to load before XBMC is kicked off.

Just wondering if there was a simple solution

Hello!

I was looking for good way to remote login into my computer. VNC wasn't good because it causes problem to run before logging into gnome. XRDP haven't got such problems, BUT i can login only once.
