Hi Robert, I finally got it working following procedure at the bottom of this link: https://gist.github.com/interwebjill/0b3dcdc56d2d9f0b646534a6207899f7
1. sudo vi /etc/xdg/autostart/myapp.desktop 2. Copy following in the file: [Desktop Entry] Type=Application Exec=/home/debian/./myapp Name=myapp Comment=Startup Myapp on load And just restart, and Qt program loads at bootup.
