Title:
programs won't run on login
Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gdm
not sure if this is GDM on not, I think this is a good place to start.
when I tell programs to run at login....they don't. i.e drapes is a wallpaper switching program I like and I usually just had to check off the box in it's preferences to run at login but it won't
also what won't run: update manager, dropbox. thinkpad buttons.
all of these are listed in "startup application" under the system -> preferences menu.
an exception to this is AWN. I have the Avant Window navigator set to run at startup and it works fine.
