Notification on login - liamjake05 - 02-18-2016
Hi, anybody knows how to make a notification appear when somebody logs in to an account. I am upgrading a PC and I want a message to appear after log in.

Hi liamjake05,
If you just want a notification shown without confirmation/ interaction you could add a line like this to the file /home/<user_name/.profile
Code:
notify-send "Big brother is watching you."With confirmation/ interaction:
Code:
zenity --info --text="Big brother is watching you."Hope that helps
