Update the one-shot script to set screen rotation using kanshi based on kernel command line parameters, replacing the previous wlr-randr method. The script now writes the configuration to ~/.config/kanshi/config and sets the GTK dark theme (PiXnoir or Adwaita-dark) at first login. Additionally, enhance documentation to reflect these changes and clarify the role of the new script in the first-boot process.
Files for the file server
first-boot.sh downloads from .../files/first-boot/ (e.g. http://10.20.50.1:5000/files/first-boot). Put all first-boot assets in a first-boot subfolder of portal-files so provisioning works.
Required files (host under .../files/first-boot/)
| File | Purpose |
|---|---|
| start-chromium.sh | Chromium kiosk launcher (executable). |
| chromium-kiosk.desktop | Autostart entry for the kiosk. |
| splash.png | Boot splash + login + desktop wallpaper (single image). |
| custom.plymouth | Plymouth theme config (from plymouth-custom/). |
| custom.script | Plymouth script that displays splash.png (from plymouth-custom/). |
| 99-wallpaper.conf | LightDM greeter wallpaper (from config-files/). |
| 99-default-session.conf | LightDM default session rpd-labwc (from config-files/). |
| maliit-keyboard.desktop | Maliit on-screen keyboard autostart (from config-files/). |
| 01-set-rotation-once.sh + .desktop | One-shot: writes ~/.config/kanshi/config with rotation from cmdline and sets GTK dark theme at first login. |
Desktop wallpaper is set once during first-boot via pcmanfm config (first-boot.sh). Optional one-shot: 02-set-wallpaper-once.sh.
