Its odd because i dont know what im doing, i sudo everything lol. So, i also tried what @dragnucs@lemmy.ml said. Changed the shellscript.service to use commands instead of a script and then checking status in terminal after a restart.

With xrandr it failed with “cant open display” which is what youre talking about. Is what youre saying is that i cant run xrandr before login?

With barrier it failed because “The Barrier GUI requires a display”. So, same thing, it cant be done before login??


![](https://discuss.tchncs.de/pictrs/image/6cef2adf-aeff-4165-9270-f2c0abdcf521.png) The goal is to have my screen rotate to normal and start Barrier (keyboard and mouse share software) on boot up. So, i have a laptop laying on top of my desktop monitor that i use kinda like a second monitor. But it boots up with the display sideways and i have to login to be able to use mouse and keyboard from my desktop. I have tried everything to get a systemd service to handle those problems. But no luck, i think the service isnt running properly on boot. Please help me out. Let me know if there is a better community to post to or if additional info is needed. Thanks.
