I've been playing with KDE4 lately. I found that I would like to autostart some scrips when I log in, but I have not been able to figure out how. In KDE3 there was the Autostart folder, I have not found a similar folder in KDE4. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Re: Autostart in KDE4
Try this:
- Create a script
- Move it to your /etc/init.d file
Code:sudo mv /.../scriptname /etc/init.d
Code:sudo chmod 755 /etc/init.d/scriptname

Won't that start the script when the computer is booting? I'm sorry I wasn't more specific, I'm looking to autostart a scrip when I log into my profile, and my profile only.

Re: Autostart in KDE4
I've been trying to do this for the past 2 hours and finally figured it out. Here's how I start Synergy at KDE4 startup...
Code:[email]niko@dawn.nwps.ws[/email]:~# cat /usr/lib/kde4/share/autostart/synergy.desktop [Desktop Entry] Name=Synergy GenericName=Synergy Exec=synergyc -f 10.0.3.9 Icon=klipper Type=Application Terminal=false X-KDE-autostart-after=panel
