So the efreet cache is being generated then....Hrmm, That means the _e_startup_event_cb should be getting reached then. If it is, then e_exec may be failing (for some unknown reason). You could add some printfs in e_startup (around line 65) to check the return of e_exec...something like:
if (!(e_exec( NULL , desktop , NULL , NULL , NULL0 ))) printf("Failed to exec startup application: %s\n", desktop->name); Tho that is only going to tell you which app failed to start, not necessarily why, Add the above and see if e_exec is indeed failing. If so, we have to dig deeper. dh ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeff Hoogland" <jeffhoogl...@linux.com> To: "Enlightenment developer list" <enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> Sent: Sunday, June 24, 2012 11:45:57 PM Subject: Re: [E-devel] Debugging a Startup Applications Issue Just a gentle nudge of other places I can stick debug messages (and what they should output) into the E code to figure out what is going on here...
