How to auto start chromium after boot on the Raspberry 2 (2015-01-31 debian wheezy)?

Question

I tried this tutorial on the latest debian wheezy (2015-01-31) http://www.lukebrowning.com/hardware/raspberry-pi/touch-screen-chromium-kiosk-on-the-raspberry-pi/ but its not working anymore... (If I made the same thing on an older debian wheezy (2014-06). Its working fine. What I should modify?

Answer 1

It appears there is now a different autostart file to use located in /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart

To get Chromium to autostart follow these instructions

1. Type

   sudo nano /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart"
   

2. Add the following line:

   /usr/bin/chromium --kiosk --ignore-certificate-errors --disable-restore-session-state "http://www.domain.com"
   

3. Press Ctrl+x

4. Press y
5. Press Enter

Worked for me!
