Trying to get chromium to autostart - Raspberry Pi Forums


i installed rasbian jessie 4.4
need chromium run automatically upon boot. i'm still new rasbian , i've researched quite bit , usual found conflicting information.
autostart should editing? i've found , edited 3 different autostart files, none seem trick.
1. /etc/xdg/lxsession/lxde-pi/autostart
2. /etc/xdg/lxsession/lxde/autostart
3. /home/pi/.config/lxsession/lxde-pi/autostart

in autostart file i've added:
@chromium --browser --kiosk

here on i'm missing?

i recommend solution based on option 3 different.

edit file named /home/pi/.config/autostart/chromiumkiosk.desktop , add these lines:

code: select all

[desktop entry] type=application exec=/usr/bin/chromium-browser --noerrdialogs --disable-session-crashed-bubble --disable-infobars --kiosk http://webpagehere hidden=false x-gnome-autostart-enabled=true name=chromiumkioskautostart comment=start chromium when gui starts 
then reboot system.

note: rpi forum webpage breaks line "exec=/usr/bin/chromium-browser --noerrdialogs --disable-session-crashed-bubble --disable-infobars --kiosk http://webpagehere". argument http://webpagehere should appear on previous line located in new line, @ least on monitor.
