http://ubuntuforums.org – When i do: sudo sh /etc/rc.local it works perfect but when i reboot my system, it wont start. There is my rc.local file: Code: #!/bin/sh -e # # rc.local # # This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel. # Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other # value on error. # # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution # bits. # # By default this script does nothing. sudo setxkbmap tr exit 0 I've added >> /var/log/rc.local.log 2>&1 to end of my command for see what's wrong and i've got this error from the lo (Hardware)

How do I insert a line of text into a specific location in a text file? I'm trying to write a script that installs itself and a few other scripts that run at startup.

I already solved this issues with Oneiric, somehow with Precise everything is back.

Initially, Ubuntu won't recognize my Wifi Card, after using this codes it does:

Code: sudo rmmod -f ath5k sudo rfkill unblock all sudo modprobe ath5k Some kind users here assisted me, and provided with this solution:

Please try this: Quote: sudo gedit /etc/rc.local Change it to: Code: #!/bin/

The header looks like this:

#!/bin/sh -e # # rc.local - executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel # # Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other # value on error.

What is the reason for this file (it does not contain much), and what commands do you usually put in it? What is a "multiuser runlevel"? (I guess rc is "run commands"?)

Hello,

I'm having a problem getting a program to run from /etc/init.d/rc.local. I can run my script manually once the system has booted.
