SYNOPSIS

9       uxlaunch [OPTIONS] [-- SESSION]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       uxlaunch  is a program that initiates the X server and desktop environ‐
13       ment. It starts the main component of the desktop up as soon as  the  X
14       server is ready and relies on autostart .desktop files for other appli‐
15       cations to be started. uxlaunch Was designed to start the Moblin  desk‐
16       top but can launch Gnome, Xfce and other desktop sessions as well.

OPTIONS

19       -u [USERNAME], --user=[USERNAME]
20               specify an alternative user to start the desktop session as. By
21               default, uxlaunch will use the first user accound found through
22               various tests, or the user "meego" if none valid is found.
23
24       -s [SESSION], --session=[SESSION]
25               specify an alternative session to start. This overrides the
26               default session (Moblin) and attempts to start [SESSION]
27               instead.
28
29       -t [TTY], --tty=[TTY]
30               Specify to use tty [TTY] instead of tty2 to run the X server
31               on.
32
33       -v, --verbose
34               Display more information on stderr. All messages go to the
35               logfile (/var/log/uxlaunch.log) in any case.
36
37       -h, --help
38               Display terse usage information.
39               show the help message.
