Run Program on Startup Raspberry Pi

Hi,

Today, I am goung to show how to run program at startup of Raspberry Pi. There are type to run program, whether before desktop is login/finished loaded or not even enter to desktop environment.

Run Program after Desktop Environment

  1. Go to : cd /home/pi/.config/lxsession/LXDE-pi/

sometime, the location of lxsession will be at another location such as:
    cd /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/

  2. Create a file name autostart: sudo nano autostart
  3. In that file, put this command

@lxpanel –profile LXDE-pi

@pcmanfm –desktop –profile LXDE-pi

@/home/pi/program.py

 

Notes: program.py is the program that you want to run.
