I try to download a file with curl directly after logging into Gnome. This usually fails because mostly the WiFi connection is only established after login. If I wait long enough in the login screen before logging in, the connection is already established and the download works.
So far I have used Manjaro. WiFi was already active long before the login screen of GDM was even displayed. The download therefore always worked.
The download is initiated with a *.desktop file in ~/.config/autostart.
Is there another way to start the download after the user is logged in and the WiFi connection is really ready?
Ahh ok. Since in this case the script should only run at start and then exit, I use oneshot. Many thx.
