[yocto] Sato image runs, but doesn't start its GUI

[Iorga, Cristian]

Hi Mike,

What poky version are you using?
Have you tried to build your core-image-sato for a qemu machine and see if that runs correctly?
Sato starts with a graphical launcher/desktop/window manager.
Regards,
Cristian

Subject: [yocto] Sato image runs, but doesn't start its GUI

I finally got around to trying to use our custom board's BSP with Yocto images.

Since the board has a touchscreen (well, actually it has two) I built the core-image-sato.

I had to tweak the startup a bit, because our framebuffer is in the FPGA it won't be available until after programming it and loading the modules.

Setting psplash to S05 instead of S00, and modutils to load at S04 fixes the initialization order problems I saw.

What I get now is a nice Yocto logo on the screen, and a progress bar that almost fills up. But nothing else happens. I'd expect the GUI to start then, but apparently there's nothing to trigger that?

Display works, touch works, everything seems in perfect working order.

I can't find anything that attempts to start anything. There's nothing in inittab, and there's nothing in rc3.d that resembles an attempt at starting something desktop GUI application or so.

Am I missing something, is this a bug, or is this expected behaviour and am I supposed to type some magic command first?
