Hum… that strange for me to.

I made a symlink lsn -s .xinitrc .xsession but many commands are not executed:

xrandr --output DP2-1 --mode 2560x1440
xrandr --output DP2-1 --primary
xrandr --output eDP1 --off
setxkbmap -model logitech_base -layout us -variant altgr-intl -option terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp,misc:typo,compose:lwin
if [ -f ~/.Xmodmap ]; then
  xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap
fi

exec i3


The keybaord iѕ ok but the xrandr commandせ are not executed.

If I launch `sh .xinitrc` after login it works.

I suppose they are not in the right file, but which is the good one?


If someboday had an advice…

Thanks in advance.
