I made a small script with Job Scheduler in KDE.
If I run the script from terminal it works, but for some reason it doesn't when it's done with crontab.
the script keeps "tamed" the file .xsession-errors that some times reaches a couple of Gb .. no ideea why.
Code: Select all
@reboot [ $(du -k .xsession-errors | awk '{ print $1 }') -gt 20000 ] && tail -10000 /home/$(whoami)/.xsession-errors > /home/$(whoami)/.xsession-errorsDoes this have to do with the fact that I'm using init instead of systemd ?
