A Newbie Question about Autostarting
I'm a long-time user of Ubuntu. Lately I've been using Openbox for my WM, so
I decided to try Lubuntu and get rid of some unused overhead.
I'm also a fan of Conky, and I quickly learned that it didn't get along with
pcmanfm. So I've commented it out and am using feh to manage my wallpapers.
I like it for its ability to rotate wallpapers on a schedule.
After some initial dismay I was pleased to find the option in Preferences to
enable window manager desktop menus.
A message on here today led me to the Ubuntu wiki page of derivatives, and I
was surprised Lubuntu wasn't there.
One confusing thing is the number of "autostart" folders and files. I
managed to edit enough of them to get most things the way I want, but I
still can't get alarmclock to start even though it runs fine from the menu.
Is there an official Lubuntu way to autostart programs?
