I have a simple script start_chromium.sh
:
#!/bin/bash
DISPLAY=:0 chromium-browser --start-fullscreen --kiosk http://server:8080
When I do sudo crontab -e
and add @reboot /home/pi/start_chromium.sh
to the bottom, it seems ineffective. However, when I do the same with just crontab -e
(as pi
user) it works as intended.
I have a vague memory as to why this is the case but I can't recall and would love to learn what the holdup is.
