Hello

I have compiz and superkaramba in autostart . First my system load superkaramba but during it, it load compiz so there is a " mix " (I don't know how to define it ) .

How to enable one autostart application with delay ?
If I could delay superkaramba of 5 seconds for example .........

Re: autostart

You could make a script and place it in .kde/Autostart, give it any name you like and do a 'sudo chmod +x' on it to make it executable. It can give you more control over your startup sequence. I'll show you mine below. Note: It's a work still in progress, I'm still trying to achieve all windows expect the very last one to be minimized and haven't achieved this yet, the wmctrl utility is not working as it's supposed, nor the dcop calls which are commented out, but you'll get the picture. The & at the end of lines means bash will wait untill the command is executed before going to the next line. If people have comments on the script, be welcome, I'm still learning bash.

#!/bin/bash

/usr/bin/amor &
/usr/bin/opera -notrayicon &
/usr/bin/krusader &

~/cal/bin/cal check
#dcop `dcop konsole* | head -1` konsole-mainwindow#1 minimize &
#dcop `dcop krusader* | head -1` krusader-mainwindow#1 minimize
sleep 1
wmctrl -k on
sleep 1
wmctrl -k on
sleep 60
opera -remote "lower()"
