Hello,
When I leave the X session, how can I execute a shell command ? Thank.
If the command does not require graphics.
./command if the command is in your current directory /path to command/command if the command is not in your PATH command if the command is in your PATH
To see your PATH
printenv PATH

If you start it with startx, as the subject seems to suggest, then you could do
startx ; your_shell_command
or
startx && your_shell_command
and then your shell command will not be executed if startx failed.
