+# Desktop Session (Pre-)Autoloader
+
+FIXME: this README.md needs to be beautified...
+
+Old dirty hack. Stick this line in a file under /etc/rc.local.d/
+[ $(date +%s) -lt $(date -d 07:55 +%s) ] && su autoload -c "Xvfb :10 &
+DISPLAY=:10 /usr/bin/dbus-launch --exit-with-session startxfce4 &"
+
+This will start things if the machine boots up before 07:55, combine
+this with wol, so things are up and running before pupils arrive.
+
+Then, create a autostart.desktop file for the "autoload" user, which
+logs him automatically out after 90 sec, like this:
+/home/autoload/.config/autostart/sleepandkill.desktop
+[Desktop Entry]
+Encoding=UTF-8
+Name=sleepandkill
+Exec=/bin/sh -c "sleep 90; pkill -u autoload"
+Terminal=false
+Type=Application
+StartupNotify=false
+
+I stick these desktopfiles in under
+/home/autoload/.config/autostart/ as well:
+firefox.desktop
+geogebra.desktop
+libreoffice-writer.desktop
+sleepandkill.desktop
+Thunar.desktop
+
+
+That wau LO, FF, Thunar and Geogebra is already cached on the client.
+
+Dirty hack, but you notice the differene quit well.
