Hi all,
Is it possible to run cronjobs configured by a user to run only when he/she is logged (via GDM/KDM,etc.)?
Seems a little antithetical, so you may want to provide more details on what the issues are and what you are trying to accomplish.
That said, the cron job being run could include a bit of code at the top to check the user's logged in status and run or abort accordingly.
A different approach would be to use cron.deny to keep a user from setting up cron jobs, and instead have "at" jobs spawned when the user logs in.
Thanks Richard. I need to modify xrandr options for a nvidia graphics adapter depending which user is logged.
It could be easy using "Startup applications" under Gnome, but gamma settings are modified by the web browser or vlc...
