Indeed, no application in /etc/xdg/autostart starts automatically in Lubuntu 14.04. Though, if you copy a .desktop file in ~/.config/autostart (which is what lxsession-default-apps does when you untick and then tick an application in the Autostart tab) then it auto- starts normally.
Below is the list of applications affected on a clean/default Lubuntu 14.04 installation: update-notifier nm-applet light-locker (you can't lock your screen in Lubuntu unless you manually run light-locker first) xdg-user-dirs-gtk-update -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1309698 Title: Lubuntu does not handle /etc/xdg/autostart To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxsession/+bug/1309698/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
