--- Comment #2 from [email protected] --- Hi, Nate. This war then a very stupid decision in KDE development, changing such mechanisms, as this breaks many(!) 3rd party applications. Skype for Linux .... Uses a shell script to start up. When selecting "[Menu] -> Internet -> Skype" in KDE Settings -> Start -> Autostart, exactly this script is called. This works in KDE when I manually click that menu entry, but it does not from Autostart ???? A very poor decision to change KDE to not support this any more. I would recommend to add something in Autostart config, allowing to re-enable previous behavior. Here the original startup script /usr/bin/skypeforlinux ...... #!/bin/sh SCRIPT=$(readlink -f "$0") USR_DIRECTORY=$(readlink -f $(dirname $SCRIPT)/..) SKYPE_PATH="$USR_DIRECTORY/share/skypeforlinux/skypeforlinux" SKYPE_LOGS="$HOME/.config/skypeforlinux/logs" mkdir -p $SKYPE_LOGS nohup "$SKYPE_PATH" --executed-from="$(pwd)" --pid=$$ "$@" > "$SKYPE_LOGS/skype-startup.log" 2>&1 & WATCH LAST LINE ! All programs started with trailing '&' abort when the script ends. Same with other programs! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
