Thank you all

@asisisyah a quick search of "Linux add group to user" would have been quicker. See for example here.

@asisisyah
i did add many group my username (nvidia)

@asisisyah said in Qt app work on boot ubuntu:

yes i set it , but problem is that i used /dev/mem file for gpio ,

This is my Ubuntu:

$ ls -l /dev/mem
crw-r----- 1 root kmem 1, 1 Jan 14 06:53 /dev/mem

So, your process can read and write (rw-) /dev/mem if it is run as root (i.e. via sudo) , and read-only (r--) if your process is run by a user in the kmem group, and no access at all (---) for anyone else. This restriction is for a good reason.

I will guess that your nvidia user is not in the kmem group; no standard Ubuntu user is.

$ id -a chrisw
uid=1000(chrisw) gid=1000(chrisw) groups=1000(chrisw),4(adm),24(cdrom),27(sudo),30(dip),46(plugdev),122(lpadmin),133(lxd),134(sambashare),136(docker),137(wireshark)

and service accounts are generally far more restricted:

$ id -a dnsmasq
uid=111(dnsmasq) gid=65534(nogroup) groups=65534(nogroup)

asisisyah

my /dev/mem ls -l
$ ls -l /dev/mem
crw-rw----- 1 root nvidia 1, 1 Jan 13 21:13 /dev/mem

and please what i must do. if you explain i think i do it.
step by step.

thank you all

Were these the original rights of the device ?

asisisyah

@asisisyah
No , its not. Originally that root:root
My user name : nvidia

SGaist

@asisisyah what distribution are you running on your device ?

asisisyah

@asisisyah
first of all thank you so much everyone.
i made a "starter.sh" file... than echo nvidia | sudo -S ./myApp ...
than start it with startUp Application .

its worked. no problem just now

thank you so much everyone
