Thanks for your comments. The f/ph type was quickly solved..... (thanks!).
But then it still does not work. After a couple of days experimenting and
googling  I get lost. I know most systemd commend by heart now.... ;-). Now
I get the error: ac.service is not loaded properly. Error: invalid
argument. My service is now:
[Unit]
Description ....
After = graphical.target
[Service]
Type = idle
Environment="DISPLAY=:0"
XAUTHORITY *{no arguments needed?}*
ExecStart = /home/debian/eme {*etc to run Python script and make log file}*
[Install]
WantedBy=default.target

I do hope you can get me going.
Thanks in advance,
Harke
PS: I considered using autostart that works perfect on my two year old
Debian on another system with LXDE. Now LXQT is used and I can not find
this anymore.
