Hi,
I've read the various wiki pages about autostart, but they are all about starting programs. But I need to start or restart a daemon. Adding for example
/etc/rc.d/powernowd restart
to the openbox autostart file (either the local or the global one) or to /etc/rc.local doesn't work. These files seem only handle normal programs, not daemons. How do I do it?
Endut! Hoch Hech!

I think you need to be root to run daemons - maybe that's the problem? Have you tired running it via openbox autostart with sudo?

Thanks, but at the moment I'm still configuring the system and therefor are working as root, no users have been added yet. So this can't be the problem.

what happens when you try
/etc/rc.d/powernowd restart
in a terminal?
I don't really understand what your trying to do or rather why your not just putting powernowd in the daemon line of
/etc/rc.conf
The installation section of powernowd's wiki shows you how to do this. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Powernowd

It works as expected, it restarts the daemon.

I've installed Powernow as documented in the link, but somehow it doesn't take control over the CPU until I restart the daemon. May be it has something to do with Trayfreq? I'll test this if this thread is a dead end.
And I'm using Powernow instead of Cpufreq because the ondemand governor will not be used when the CPU driver is p4clockmod. If there is another solution I will be glad to hear about it.
