Howto: Mixxx (and other) kiosk mode with Salix Ratpoison?

Post by rrttdd »

Hi,

I plan to set up a kind of kiosk mode for my laptop with the DJ software Mixxx.

Description:

-I create a DJ guest user

1) when the DJ guest user logs in, Mixxx is started automatically.
2) when the DJ guest user closes Mixxx, it is immediately restarted
3) Special adapted Ratmenu (System shutdown, and perhaps ALSA mixer only)

I think, 3) shouldn't be the huge problem. It should be possible to implement that by creating special .sh files in the /.ratmenu folder of the DJ users home directory....

But how can I implement 1) and 2) ?
