Is there a place in the login/startup process that I can do this?
With Gnome's "Startup Applications", a script is not guaranteed to be
executed before the rest of the desktop.
You can try putting it in .xsession or .Xclients in your home directory.

I did try but to no avail.
Every page on Google from a "gdm x session startup" search claims that
GDM does not execute the classic X user session scripts unless you
specifically select "Custom..." as your session type rather than "GNOME"
or "KDE". And in that case, you are responsible for launching the
window manager/desktop yourself.
So X session scripts are a no-go. Just have to poke around some more, I
guess.
