Creating configs

  • M

    Hi,
    don’t know if I’m stupid or what, but while reading the tutorial to set up the Raspberry (link: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/wiki/Configuring-the-Raspberry-Pi), in the last section for VNC, I am asked to create a config file like this:
    Create an auto-start file:

    cd ~/.config
mkdir autostart
cd autostart
nano x11vnc.desktop

    My Problem is, that I don’t know at all where this stuff has to be written to get the wanted effect.
    Pretty sure now it is stupidity, maybe I also got the wrong Forum, please forgive me…

    Thank you!

    After you type nano x11vnc.desktop you should type

    [Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Type=Application
Name=X11VNC
Comment=
Exec=x11vnc -forever -usepw -display :0 -ultrafilexfer
StartupNotify=false
Terminal=false
Hidden=false

    which causes x11vnc to autostart
