Hi,
What to do to let QNX 6.2.1 login in as a default user at start up?
Thanks in advance

You should be able to add the following to you rc.local file to bypass

the login prompt when booting into Photon:

/usr/photon/bin/Photon -l ‘/usr/photon/bin/phlogin -O -Uuser:password’

Note: Your password will be in plain text, however this should not be a
big deal since you are bypassing login for this user account anyways.

See the “Controlling How Neutrino Starts” chapter of the Neutrino’s
Users Guide for more details:

http://www.qnx.com/developers/docs/6.3.0SP1/neutrino/user_guide/starting.html

Note: This guide was written for 6.3.0, however much applies to 6.2.1 as
well.

Hi,

I applied the line to rc.local and the autologin works, but my
keyboard seems to be messed up …
Shift works randomly and I don’t have any idea how to fix this …

(BTW:I’m using 6.2.1 …)

bye

This should have no effect on the input driver.

Could your shift key on your keyboard be sticky? Try will a different
keyboard.

Hi,
I had a servswitch attached, so my first guess was the same … but it

doesn’twork on 2 different machines , so it’s a real prob…

You just put the autologin into your rc.local, then open an xterm and
hold shift and write “///////////////////////////”.
This is impossible, as my system writes “/7/7///7/77”, but only if I
used autologin …
BTW: I allready tried the -B and -i options of phlogin without
success.
bye

Thanks,
