*** About the GUI session
**** Starting the X-server and the Session
The X-Server is started by using the two systemd units ~xlogin@.service~ and ~x@.service~ provided by the package *xlogin*.
The former is enabled (and started) for the vdr user - which results (using the default settings for the user *vdr* with the uid *666*) in the activation of ~xlogin@vdr.service~ when reaching the graphical.target.
~x@vt7.service~ is started automatically as a dependency of ~xlogin@vdr.service~ and starts the X-server.
~xlogin@vdr.service~ also starts a systemd user session using ~user@666.service~.
To prevent stopping the X-server when vdr is running, additional dependencies are set up - see the drop-in rules created in ~/etc/systemd/system/vdr.service.d/~.
Basic Services like the session DBus, pulseaudio etc. are started for the ~default.target~ of the session.
**** openbox autostart and yavdr-desktop.target
The openbox autostart script is used to update the systemd session with the needed session variables. It creates a file =~/.session-env= which is used as an environment file by ~vdr.service~ (so the vdr knows the *DISPLAY* and can access pulseaudio).
The autostart script then enables all services to be pulled in by yavdr-desktop.target. As the last step ~yavdr-desktop.target~ is startet, which results in staring ~yavdr-frontend.service~ and additional Units for a second display (openbox and a browser for osd2eb, if available).
**** yavdr-frontend
**** Shutdown of the Session
In order to achive a clean shutdown of the session, ~x@t7.service~ is set as a dependency of ~user@666.service~ and all processes within the session must be shutdown properly when stopping ~xlogin@vdr.service~.
If systemd units are used within the user session, they must stop their process(es) successfully (you should set them up to accept expected exit codes appropriately). The window manager /openbox/ is started using the =~/.xinitrc= and stopped using the systemd unit ~exit-wm.service~ (which runs on stopping the jobs pulled in by the ~default.target~ of the session).
