Is there anyway to automatically start applications when logging on to the graphical logon (X, gnome or KDE or whatever)? By that I mean when you logon via the graphical logon screen into X (Gnome or KDE), having x-apps like gaim and evolution automatically start. I know about ~/.bash_profile, but if I put something in there it would also start when I ssh or scp into that host (which I don't want). I was thinking along the lines of windows idea of Start > Programs > Startup, but it doesn't need to be that easy. Any ideas? -- Ken Chamberlain University of Toronto phone:416-978-1582 email:ken.chamberlain@xxxxxxxxxxx
