Hi,
Can anyone give me the steps needed to get UbuntuOne to auto start?
I have followed the guide here:-
http://lubuntublog.blogspot.co.uk/p/ubuntu-one.html
...but it does not work for me. Google search shows that autostarting
applications in Lubuntu is a problem for quite a few users, but I
cannot find a consistent answer. Also most of the advice is for
pre-13.10 installations with a couple of suggestions that the
autostart method changed with 13.10, but no specific answer for 13.10.
When I manually start the UbuntuOne service it asks me to enter my
Keyring password, even though the password is the same as my log-in
password. The Google answers to this problem suggest that I should
select "Details" from the pop-up window and choose "Automatically
unlock this keyring on login", but I do not see the "Details" option
on my machine? What am I missing?
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Cheers,

Perhaps the biggest clue concerning auto-start *applications* (from
Julien Lavergne, 11/18/13 -- and note that it does not apply to
services/daemons):
- Change in autostart applications : all applications in /etc/xdg and
.config/autostart/ was disable by default. That's was a design
decision to reduce the number of applications launching randomly. It
was replaced by an application to define more clearly what
applications you want to start by default (with
lxsession-default-app). With some feedbacks, I think it was a bad
idea, it confused too much people. So, I turned this off by default
upstream, and I'll also do it in Lubuntu in 14.04. That was also the
goal of 13.10, doing experimentations.
If you want to turn it off now manually, go to lxsession-default-app
=> Autostart => Set « no » to « Disable autostarted applications ? »
Thank you John, that has fixed the UbuntuOne autostart problem. However,
after the reboot, I had two network apps running. I fixed this by
changing the Network GUI command option in Default Applications for
LXSession from "nm-applet" to "no", and then do a reboot.
The Keyring password problem was solved by installing Seahorse. The auto
unlocking sorted itself out at the reboot.
Cheers,
