+Runs the EARS application fullscreen on tty3 at boot, with no desktop
+environment around it. The normal Xubuntu desktop remains available on
+tty7 for development and troubleshooting.
+
+**Status: semi-permanent.** Nothing here replaces the Xubuntu desktop.
+lightdm still runs, the default systemd target is unchanged, and GRUB is
+untouched. Removing two files returns the machine to stock.
 
 ---
 
-## 1. Prerequisites
-- Windows 11 (or updated Windows 10) with WSL2 and **WSLg** enabled for GUI support
-- Ubuntu 24.04 (noble) or similar WSL distro
+## Quick reference
 
-Check WSLg is active:
-```bash
-echo $DISPLAY
-```
-Should return something like `:0`. If empty, GUI apps won't display.
+| Action | How |
+|---|---|
+| Switch to kiosk | `Ctrl+Alt+F3` |
+| Switch to desktop | `Ctrl+Alt+F7` |
+| Exit kiosk to a shell | Press **Close** in the app |
+| Start kiosk manually | `~/kiosk/kiosk-start.sh` (from a text console) |
+| Disable kiosk at next boot | `rm ~/kiosk/enabled` |
+| Re-enable | `touch ~/kiosk/enabled` |
+| Live log | `tail -f ~/kiosk/logs/current.log` |
+| Kill the app | `pkill -f program.exe` (relaunches automatically) |

-## 2. Install Mono
+## Layout
 
-```bash
-sudo apt update
-sudo apt install mono-complete
+```

+├── kiosk-start.sh        launches the X server on the current VT

 ```
 
-Verify:
+Application: `/home/ears/Desktop/Kazi/v3/linux/program.exe`
+
+---
+
+## How it boots
+
+```
+power on
+  → GRUB → systemd → graphical.target
+      ├── lightdm on vt7          (normal Xubuntu, untouched)
+      └── getty@tty3 autologin as `ears`
+            → ~/.bash_profile sees tty3 + ~/kiosk/enabled
+              → exec kiosk-start.sh
+                → startx on vt3
+                  → kiosk-session.sh
+                    → display-setup.sh, matchbox, unclutter
+                    → loop: mono program.exe
+```
+
+`kiosk-start.sh` calls `fgconsole` to find the VT it was launched from,
+so it works whether started at boot on tty3 or by hand from any console.
+
+### Exit codes
+
+| Code | Meaning |
+|---|---|
+| 0 | Clean exit (Close button) — session ends, shell on tty3 |
+| other | Crash — relaunched after 2s |
+| 3 crashes in <20s each | Recovery console (xterm) opens with the log |
+
+---
+
+## Dependencies
+
 ```bash
-mono --version
-mcs --version
+sudo apt install --no-install-recommends \
+     xinit matchbox-window-manager unclutter xterm x11-xserver-utils
+```
+
+Plus `mono-complete` for the application itself.
+
+---
+
+## Installation from scratch
+
+### 1. Scripts
+
+Place `kiosk-start.sh` and `kiosk-session.sh` in `~/kiosk/`, then:
+
+```bash
+chmod +x ~/kiosk/kiosk-start.sh ~/kiosk/kiosk-session.sh
+mkdir -p ~/kiosk/logs
+```
+
+Confirm the app path at the top of `kiosk-session.sh`:
+
+```bash
+APP_DIR="/home/ears/Desktop/Kazi/v3/linux"
+APP_CMD="mono program.exe"
+```
+
+No `$` before the path, no trailing slash.
+
+### 2. Display and touch
+
+The rotation script is shared with the Xubuntu session
+(`~/.config/autostart/Rotate Display.desktop`). Symlink it:
+
+```bash
+ln -s /path/to/rotate-display.sh ~/kiosk/display-setup.sh
+```
+
+It handles: 90° right rotation, the matching touch coordinate matrix
+for `SIS0457:00 0457:11ED`, and disabling blanking/DPMS.
+
+### 3. Autologin on tty3
+
+```bash
+sudo systemctl edit getty@tty3
+```
+
+```ini
+[Service]
+ExecStart=
+ExecStart=-/sbin/agetty --autologin ears --noclear %I $TERM
+```
+
+```bash
+sudo systemctl enable getty@tty3.service
+```
+
+### 4. Boot hook
+
+Append to `~/.bash_profile` (or `~/.profile` if that's the one bash reads):
+
+```bash
+# --- kiosk autostart on tty3 only ---
+if [[ -z $DISPLAY && $(tty) == /dev/tty3 && -f $HOME/kiosk/enabled ]]; then
+    sleep 3                      # let lightdm claim vt7 first
+    exec "$HOME/kiosk/kiosk-start.sh"
+fi
+```
+
+### 5. Enable and reboot
+
+```bash
+touch ~/kiosk/enabled
+sudo reboot
 ```
 
 ---
 
-## 3. Install GTK# (GTK# 3.0, for Ubuntu 24.04)
+## Troubleshooting
 
-> Note: `gtk-sharp2` is **not available** on Ubuntu 24.04 (noble). Use `gtk-sharp3` instead.
+Always start here:
 
 ```bash
-sudo add-apt-repository universe
-sudo apt update
-sudo apt install gtk-sharp3
+tail -60 ~/kiosk/logs/current.log     # app + session errors
+tail -40 ~/kiosk/logs/startx.log      # X server failed to start
+grep -E '\(EE\)' ~/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.1.log
 ```
 
-Verify the package is registered:
-```bash
-pkg-config --list-all | grep gtk-sharp
-```
-Expected output:
-gtk-sharp-3.0 Gtk - Gtk
----
+| Symptom | Cause / fix |
+|---|---|
+| `Only console users are allowed to run the X server` | Launched from a terminal inside Xfce. Use `Ctrl+Alt+F3` and run from the text console. |
+| `Cannot open virtual console N (Permission denied)` | Asking for a VT you don't own. `kiosk-start.sh` uses `fgconsole` to avoid this — check it wasn't edited to a hardcoded `vt8`. |
+| `Server is already active for display 1` | Stale lock: `sudo rm -f /tmp/.X1-lock /tmp/.X11-unix/X1` |
+| `cd: $/home/... No such file` | Stray `$` in `APP_DIR`. Path must be literal. |
+| Black screen, then "session ended" | X started, session script exited. Read `current.log`. |
+| App runs but not fullscreen | `matchbox-window-manager` missing. |
+| Rotation right, touch wrong | `display-setup.sh` not executable, or `xinput` device name changed. Check with `xinput list --name-only`. |
+| Boot lands on vt7 not vt3 | lightdm won the race. Increase `sleep 3` to `sleep 6`. |
+| No sound | See below. |
 
-## 4. Install Glade (visual UI designer)
+`xf86EnableIO: failed to enable I/O ports` in the Xorg log is normal and
+can be ignored — rootless X doesn't need legacy port access.
+
+### Getting a shell inside the kiosk
+
+Add temporarily to `kiosk-session.sh`, before the `while true` loop:
 
 ```bash
-sudo apt install glade
+xterm -fa Monospace -fs 14 -geometry 100x30 &
 ```
 
-Launch it:
+### Audio
+
+The kiosk session does not start an audio server; on the desktop that's
+done by Xfce's autostart. Check from inside the kiosk:
+
 ```bash
-glade
+pactl info                    # "Connection refused" = no server
+aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav
 ```
-Design your UI visually, then save as `yourfile.glade` (XML format).
+
+If a server is needed, add to `kiosk-session.sh` before `matchbox`:
+
+```bash
+if command -v pipewire >/dev/null && ! pactl info &>/dev/null; then
+    pipewire & pipewire-pulse & wireplumber &
+    sleep 2
+elif command -v pulseaudio >/dev/null && ! pactl info &>/dev/null; then
+    pulseaudio --start
+    sleep 2
+fi
+```
+
+**Test with the Xfce session logged out**, not merely switched away.
+Both sessions run as `ears`, so an audio server started by the desktop
+will serve the kiosk too — giving a false pass that breaks later when
+lightdm is removed.
 
 ---
 
-## 5. Optional: libgdiplus (only if using System.Drawing)
+## Updating the application
 
-Only needed if your code uses `System.Drawing.Bitmap`, `Graphics`, etc. (not required for plain GTK#/Glade apps):
+Replace files in `/home/ears/Desktop/Kazi/v3/linux/`, then from a shell:
 
 ```bash
-sudo apt install libgdiplus
+pkill -f program.exe
 ```
 
+The session loop treats this as a crash and relaunches within 2 seconds
+with the new build. No reboot needed.
+
 ---
 
-## 6. Compiling & Running
+## Removal
 
-### Plain console C# program
+Temporary (next boot only):
+
 ```bash
-mcs myprogram.cs
-mono myprogram.exe
+rm ~/kiosk/enabled
 ```
 
-### GTK# 3.0 program (no Glade)
+Complete:
+
 ```bash
-mcs -pkg:gtk-sharp-3.0 myapp.cs
-mono myapp.exe
+sudo systemctl disable getty@tty3.service
+sudo rm -rf /etc/systemd/system/getty@tty3.service.d/
+# remove the kiosk block from ~/.bash_profile
+rm -rf ~/kiosk
 ```
 
-### GTK# 3.0 program using a Glade file
-```bash
-mcs -pkg:gtk-sharp-3.0 -pkg:glade-sharp-3.0 myapp.cs
-mono myapp.exe
-```
-Make sure the `.glade` file referenced in code sits in the same folder (or update the path in `new Builder("...")`).
+Nothing else was modified. lightdm, the default target, GRUB, and
+`~/.config/xfce4/` are all untouched.

-## 7. Minimal Working Examples
+## Known limitations
 
-### Hello World (console)
-```csharp
-using System;
-
-class Hello {
-    static void Main() {
-        Console.WriteLine("Hello from Mono in WSL!");
-    }
-}
-```
-```bash
-mcs hello.cs
-mono hello.exe
-```
-
-### Hello World (GTK# window, no Glade)
-```csharp
-using System;
-using Gtk;
-
-class GtkCheck {
-    static void Main() {
-        Application.Init();
-        var win = new Window("Hello GTK#3");
-        win.SetDefaultSize(300, 200);
-        win.DeleteEvent += (o, args) => Application.Quit();
-
-        var button = new Button("Click me");
-        button.Clicked += (o, args) => Console.WriteLine("Clicked!");
-        win.Add(button);
-
-        win.ShowAll();
-        Application.Run();
-    }
-}
-```
-```bash
-mcs -pkg:gtk-sharp-3.0 gtkcheck.cs
-mono gtkcheck.exe
-```
-
-### Loading a UI built in Glade
-```csharp
-using System;
-using Gtk;
-
-class Program {
-    static void Main() {
-        Application.Init();
-        var builder = new Builder("myui.glade");
-        builder.Autoconnect(new Program());
-
-        var win = (Window)builder.GetObject("window1");
-        win.DeleteEvent += (o, args) => Application.Quit();
-        win.ShowAll();
-
-        Application.Run();
-    }
-}
-```
-```bash
-mcs -pkg:gtk-sharp-3.0 -pkg:glade-sharp-3.0 program.cs
-mono program.exe
-```
+- Both lightdm and the kiosk X server run simultaneously — roughly 200MB
+  of RAM that will be freed when lightdm is eventually dropped.
+- No lockdown yet: VT switching, GRUB editing, and USB boot are all open.
+- No in-app power control; shutdown is done from the desktop or a shell.
+- `startx.log` grows without bound; truncate occasionally.

-## 8. Custom Output Names, Targets & Exporting DLLs
+## Next steps toward a permanent kiosk
 
-By default, `mcs file.cs` names the output after the source file (`file.exe`). You can control this with `-out:` and change what kind of binary is produced with `-target:`.
+In this order, testing each before moving on:
 
-### 8.1 Custom output name
-```bash
-mcs -pkg:gtk-sharp-3.0 Program.cs -out:MyCustomApp.exe
-```
-Run it the same way:
-```bash
-mono MyCustomApp.exe
-```
+1. `systemctl set-default multi-user.target`, disable lightdm
+2. Move autologin from tty3 to tty1
+3. In-app power menu (sleep/shutdown/restart) with a polkit rule
+4. Developer unlock: PIN pad, `exit 42` → Xfce session
+5. Lockdown: GRUB password, `DontVTSwitch`, mask tty4–6, BIOS password
+6. Move the app out of `Desktop/` to `/opt/ears/`
 
-### 8.2 `-target` options
-| Target | Produces | Notes |
-|---|---|---|
-| `exe` (default) | Console executable | Shows a console window when run on Windows |
-| `winexe` | Windows GUI executable | No console window — correct choice for GTK#/Glade GUI apps distributed on Windows |
-| `library` | `.dll` class library | No `Main` entry point required to run directly; used by other programs |
-| `module` | `.netmodule` | Rarely used; for combining into a single assembly later |
-
-Your example, building a windowed GUI executable with a custom name:
-```bash
-mcs -target:winexe -pkg:gtk-sharp-3.0 Program.cs -out:programwin.exe
-```
-This produces `programwin.exe`, which on Windows will run without popping up a console window alongside your GTK window.
-
-### 8.3 Exporting a DLL
-
-If you want to package reusable code (helper classes, business logic, etc.) as a library instead of a standalone app:
-
-```bash
-mcs -target:library Program.cs -out:MyLibrary.dll
-```
-
-- No `Main()` method is required in a `library` target (though it's fine if one class in your project has one — it just won't be used as an entry point for the DLL itself).
-- This creates `MyLibrary.dll`, a Mono/.NET assembly that other C# programs can reference.
-
-### 8.4 Using a DLL in another program
-
-Suppose `MyLibrary.dll` contains:
-```csharp
-// MyLibrary.cs
-namespace MyLib {
-    public class Greeter {
-        public string Greet(string name) => $"Hello, {name}!";
-    }
-}
-```
-Compiled with:
-```bash
-mcs -target:library MyLibrary.cs -out:MyLibrary.dll
-```
-
-Then in a separate consumer program:
-```csharp
-// ConsumerApp.cs
-using System;
-using MyLib;
-
-class ConsumerApp {
-    static void Main() {
-        var greeter = new Greeter();
-        Console.WriteLine(greeter.Greet("World"));
-    }
-}
-```
-
-Compile it while referencing the DLL with `-r:`:
-```bash
-mcs ConsumerApp.cs -r:MyLibrary.dll -out:ConsumerApp.exe
-```
-
-Run it (make sure `MyLibrary.dll` is in the same folder as `ConsumerApp.exe`, or on Mono's library search path):
-```bash
-mono ConsumerApp.exe
-```
-
-### 8.5 Combining `-target:library` with GTK# packages
-If your DLL itself uses GTK# types (e.g., a shared custom widget), include the package flag when building the library too:
-```bash
-mcs -target:library -pkg:gtk-sharp-3.0 MyGtkWidgets.cs -out:MyGtkWidgets.dll
-```
-And reference both the package and the DLL when compiling the consumer:
-```bash
-mcs -pkg:gtk-sharp-3.0 ConsumerApp.cs -r:MyGtkWidgets.dll -out:ConsumerApp.exe
-```
-
-### 8.6 Quick reference
-```bash
-# Console exe, custom name
-mcs Program.cs -out:myapp.exe
-
-# Windowed (no console) exe, custom name
-mcs -target:winexe -pkg:gtk-sharp-3.0 Program.cs -out:programwin.exe
-
-# Class library (DLL)
-mcs -target:library Library.cs -out:MyLibrary.dll
-
-# Program referencing that DLL
-mcs Consumer.cs -r:MyLibrary.dll -out:Consumer.exe
-```
-
-### 8.7 Running the compiled .exe on Windows (outside WSL)
-
-Compiling in WSL produces a `.exe` that targets the .NET/Mono runtime — it is **not** a native Windows binary, and it will not run on Windows by itself. Two things are needed:
-
-**1. Install a runtime on the Windows machine**
-
-Pick one:
-- **Mono runtime for Windows** — install the [Mono for Windows](https://www.mono-project.com/download/stable/) package so `.exe` files built with `mcs` can run via the Mono runtime. After install, you can either double-click the `.exe` (Mono associates itself with `.exe` files) or run it explicitly:
-```powershell
-  mono programwin.exe
-```
-- **.NET Framework / .NET runtime** — for simple GTK#-free console apps, the .exe may also run under an installed .NET runtime, but GTK# apps specifically require Mono's GTK# libraries, so the Mono for Windows install is the reliable option.
-
-**2. Copy the required DLLs alongside the .exe**
-
-Your compiled `.exe` references managed DLLs at runtime (not just at compile time). Anything you referenced with `-r:` or `-pkg:` must physically travel with the `.exe`:
-
-- Any custom library you built, e.g. `MyLibrary.dll` or `MyGtkWidgets.dll`
-- GTK# binding assemblies your app depends on (typically already provided by installing Mono for Windows, since it bundles the GTK# runtime — but if you used a nonstandard package, copy its DLL too)
-- Your `.glade` file, if the app loads one via `Builder("myui.glade")` — this isn't a DLL but is just as required; it must sit next to the `.exe` at the same relative path your code expects
-
-Minimum folder layout to copy over to Windows:
-programwin.exe
-MyLibrary.dll (any custom DLLs you referenced with -r:)
-myui.glade (if using Glade)
-
-**Common pitfall:** a program that runs fine in WSL but fails on Windows with `FileNotFoundException` or `Could not load file or assembly` almost always means a referenced DLL (or the `.glade` file) wasn't copied over, or Mono for Windows isn't installed.

-## 9. Common Errors & Fixes
-
-| Error | Cause | Fix |
-|---|---|---|
-| `File does not contain a valid CIL image` | Ran `mono` on `.cs` source instead of compiled `.exe` | Compile first: `mcs file.cs`, then `mono file.exe` |
-| `CS0246: type or namespace 'Gtk' could not be found` | Missing package reference during compile | Add `-pkg:gtk-sharp-3.0` to `mcs` command |

-## 10. Notes on Alternatives
-
-GTK# is a legacy, lightly-maintained binding. For new projects, consider:
-- **Avalonia UI** — modern, XAML-based, cross-platform, actively maintained
-```bash
-  sudo apt install dotnet-sdk-8.0
-  dotnet new install Avalonia.Templates
-  dotnet new avalonia.app -o MyApp
-```
-
-Use GTK#/Mono/Glade for legacy projects or learning; use Avalonia + `dotnet` for anything new and long-term.
-
-
-Personal note:
-
-Compile note:
-    to compile the cs file
-        mcs NAME_OF_THE_FILE.cs 
-    for GTK appilcation
-        mcs -pkg:gtk-sharp-3.0 NAME_OF_THE_FILE.cs
-    custom output name / windowed exe
-        mcs -target:winexe -pkg:gtk-sharp-3.0 NAME_OF_THE_FILE.cs -out:CUSTOM_NAME.exe
-    export as DLL
-        mcs -target:library NAME_OF_THE_FILE.cs -out:CUSTOM_NAME.dll
-    use a DLL in another program
-        mcs Consumer.cs -r:CUSTOM_NAME.dll -out:Consumer.exe
-
-
-
-to run note:
-    same for all cases
-        mono NAME_OF_THE_FILE.exe
