Thanks Camaleón. Been there, read that. However, the offical how-to need us to hack into offical display manager's start up files. I thought this was bad, because when the display manager is updated, all your hacking is lost. So I asked myself, "is there any better places, universal to all 3 display managers and doesn't need to hack into exiting official code"? First thing I thought of is the .desktop files that freedesktop.org has specified as the standard method of how the applications should be started when you start a X session. . .
