I'm running Spideroak just fine on a 13.04 machine.
However, in a fresh installation of 13.10 Spideroak does not autostart.
I see that Spideroak's intended launch point is
~/.config/autostart/SpiderOak.desktop, and that shortcut is present.
In the current thread with subject ".config/autostart" there was a
reference to Leszek Lesner's 2011 video re Autostart:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6cuQvQBIAo
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6cuQvQBIAo&app=desktop>
That video includes coverage of Preferences > Desktop Session
Settings, but I don't have that menu item in my fresh full install of
13.10. Is this a bug, or is the functionality of Desktop Session
Settings now supposed to be provided via Preferences > Default
Applications for LXSession?
--------------------
Another question -- I find these two folders:
/etc/xdg/autostart (a global autostart location)
~/.config/autostart (a local autostart location)
But also these two files:
/etc/xdg/lxsession/Lubuntu/autostart
~/.config/lxsession/Lubuntu/autostart
Are the latter two files for a deprecated but still supported
autostart method? Is there nice documentation somewhere for current
autostart methods?
Julien's post from earlier today (Subject: 'Back on 13.10 release') gave
me enough information to get SpiderOak running. The problem was with
lxsession and its 13.10 default setting of
'disable_autostart=config-only.' Setting that to 'disable_autostart=no'
restores per-app control of autostarts, much like the functionality
previously provided by lxsession-edit, which has been removed from 13.10.
I have at least a couple other problems/questions that are related, but
I'll post separately for those.
