The goal is to have my screen rotate to normal and start Barrier (keyboard and mouse share software) on boot up.

So, i have a laptop laying on top of my desktop monitor that i use kinda like a second monitor. But it boots up with the display sideways and i have to login to be able to use mouse and keyboard from my desktop.

I have tried everything to get a systemd service to handle those problems. But no luck, i think the service isnt running properly on boot. Please help me out.

Let me know if there is a better community to post to or if additional info is needed. Thanks.

Instead of a script try the command directly in ExecStart. Systemd should take care of keeping the process running without you having to do nohop and disown.

If you insist on using a script you should use a full path to sh or bash with the path to your script as an argument like ExecStart=/usr/bin/bash /path/to/script.sh.
