Dear Nameless, at first doublecheck that you have all updates installed! There have been some changes in autostarting apps the last 3 months. You should have at least tcos-scripts 2.1-28.6 installed.
Please ensure that your configured autostart apps appear in /home/tcos/.config/autostart/YourAppName.desktop . These files are picked up by mate, once mate itself has successfully started (not before). If these files do exist correctly, but your app does not start automatically, hmmm.... Please check your name resolution, routes/gateways and so on. You can also cat your /home/tcos/.config/autostart/YourAppName.desktop in a xterm (CtrlxAlt+x) and copy/paste the command right of "exec=". Run this command in the same xterm and look if there is any error. Good luck!
