I tried everything, but I just couldn't add a program to the startup list... How can I do that in mint lxde 12? The desktop sessions settings only allows enabling programs that are already in the list....
Thank you!

Re: Startup programs
Is this what you want? http://lubuntu.net/blog/lubuntu-screencast-autostart
Re: Startup programs
So which ones get executed first or what is the order of execution?
/etc/xdg/autostart, /home/user/.config/autostart or the /etc/xdg/lxsession/Mint-LXDE/autostart?
I am using Mint 12 LXDE just in case you look and don't see the last one on yours.

Re: Startup programs
My experience has been that /etc/xdg/lxsession/Mint-LXDE/autostart has always been the relevant one: http://douwil7.100webspace.net/linux/Tuning.html#16.
Re: Startup programs
Hope you can help. Wanna make sure Update Manager does not auto-launch on start-up and plant itself in my systray.
I've checked:
1. Update Manager Preferences. No apparent option there.
2. /etc/xdg/lxsession/Mint-LXDE/autostart - No entry there.
No doubt there's a simple fix? TIA.

Re: Startup programs
For Mint 12 LXDE check /etx/xdg/autostart. See this for more info.

Thanks nunol. That did the trick.nunol wrote:For Mint 12 LXDE check /etx/xdg/autostart.
As root, rename 'mintupdate.desktop' file in /etc/xdg/autostart folder, as 'mintupdate.desktop.bk'. Then reboot to check.
IMHO this M$-like auto-launch update manager thingy should be ditched in future. Any other users feel the same way?
