Default second part

I will keep working on getting the service to boot on run level 5. Shouldn't take long. As for part two, I need to make sure that my computer is watching xrandr for additional providers. I think I will create a secondary daemon off a function in the /etc/init.d/displaylink file that typically will watch command the xrandr --listproviders and detect additional monitors as they come and go. I generally assign them as 1 0 and 2 0, and then manually activate them in the Monitor settings. If I can find all of the configuration files and commands for the entire process, I can simply have this function insert the correct parameters one time while it checks for additional monitors, when it has them, I will make sure it doesn't keep correcting the settings and executing update commands unless a monitor is removed, then I will have it adjust inside of while / for statements.

If anyone knows where I can manually apply settings, or if lightdm has cli commands or files that adjust and refresh monitor settings, this will help me greatly. I'm not too shabby with shell scripting.
