[SOLVED] Creating *.service file

Hello,

I have problem with creating .service file to enable it to systemctl

I have script

#!/bin/sh
xrandr --newmode "1440x900_60.00" 106.50  1440 1528 1672 1904  900 903 909 934 -hsync +vsync
xrandr --addmode DVI-I-2 1440x900_60.00
xrandr --output DVI-I-2 --mode 1440x900_60.00

Resolution change if i do

sudo ./script.sh

I also make setRes.service file

[Unit]
Description=setRessss

[Service]
ExecStart=/home/xyz/script.sh

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

What i expect ?
-> exec that script automaticly after start OS

Re: [SOLVED] Creating *.service file

What is starting the X server before multi-user.target so it is available for your service to use?
Edit:
Although you are not using a user service what is setting the DISPLAY and XAUTHORITY variables? User#DISPLAY_and_XAUTHORITY

ItalianoVero you accidentally hit report

    I do not understand what you are trying to say... sory im newbie

You either have to create an user service (read the entire page loqs linked to) or add those lines to whatever utility you use to start X it's initialization scripts instead of a systemd service. A system instance of systemd runs way before X has started so these lines will simply run into an error the way they are.

Re: [SOLVED] Creating *.service file

Is this not an XY problem?

The best way to set an unrecognised EDID is with an Xorg configuration file:
