`rc-local` counterparty in Systemd [SOLVER]

Hi there,

Is there any way that I can add a couple of bash commands as root in Systemd files?

Even thought I still haven't figured a way to write a working service files; It is really meaningless to create something else that have no contemporary mean.

I'm trying to turn off extra-GPU with switcheroo.

This is rc-local I created:

#!/bin/sh
# Run command at boot-up

sudo chmod -R 705 /sys/kernel/debug
sudo chown -R gulver:users /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch
sudo echo OFF > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch

Service gave 203 error while running exec. Halp an idiot out

See if tmpfiles.d can fulfil your needs.

man tmpfiles.d

This seems like an overly complex way of disabling a GPU, but I'm not familiar with swicheroo. There is systemd-vgaswitcheroo-units in the AUR though, is that any use to you?

Thank you! Both works out, how did I forgot about AUR...
