It seems like the Default applications for LXsession (I'll call this DAL) is doing something to break the compatibility with the /etc/xdg/autostart folder, and possibly other autostart functions. I am not sure if this worked during the Alpha stage of Lubuntu 14.04.... I do remember the DAL did not work right at all in the alpha stages.... so... maybe when fixing one problem another crept in. Does anyone else remember if the update manager worked during that time? I know running sudo apt-get update *should* bring up the update manager and tell you that you can install some updates. during the Alpha, I always ran the commands manually as I was doing other things in the terminal anyway.... But I don't recall if it brought up the update manager. I was testing out a few flavors, so I can't remember what is what back then.
