dear bhaskar, yes! the following techniques you suggest are working :
<quote>if you are using KDE, use the ~/.kde/Autostart folder. Put the script or a link to it and it should start after X loads. In GNOME, use ~/.Xclients-default to load your programs.<quote> however, the following technique, in principle and concept which i want, is not working: <quote> If you use some other window manager, put something like this in your .xinitrc file: sleep 5 && /usr/local/bin/firestarter start<quote> so if i have a user on my machine who decides to boot into any random environment, the apps i want working on his/her logging into runlevel 5, will disappear. i created the .xinitrc file in the home directory of the user. first i just left it as a simple file, with just that command in it. then i tried it with a generous sleep 60 then i even tried to convert .xinitrc into a bash script and chmodded it accordingly. no luck. ab kyaa karey? ?
