Enabling the custom desktops for users

To activate the changes made using TLDC, create a symbolic link in /opt/thinlinc/etc/xstartup.d:

$ sudo ln -s /opt/thinlinc/bin/tl-desktop-activate.sh \
   /opt/thinlinc/etc/xstartup.d/35-tl-desktop-activate.sh

The ThinLinc session startup will read this file and write a ~/.config/menus/applications.menu (and possibly create symbolic links under ~/.kde/share/apps/kdesktop/Desktop if you’re using KDE).

Note

The TLDC activation script only runs TLDC for non-root users. Test your TLDC configuration using a normal user.
