[Bug 803917] Re: Do not appear in Startup Applications

 

This seems to affect Ubuntu Oneiric only (compared to previous releases as well as Fedora 16).
I'm having a hard time explaining how to disable a hidden item for one user in Startup Applications?

Would it be possible to expand gnome-session-properties to ignore
NoDisplay value:

$ gnome-session-properties --hidden

This would be a much simpler workaround compared to editing multiple
files (that may be written over by an updated package).

Bug description:
  It was decided at the last UDS
  (https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-o-startup-
  applications) to hide all applications that appear in "Startup
  Applications" by default.

  Each should have NoDisplay=true added to its .desktop file.

  This is an Ubuntu-only change as upstream GNOME has previously
  rejected our patch for supporting the NoDisplay key in autostart
  files.
