Thanks for the hint. There is nothing in ~/.kde/Autostart/ (this directory is empty), but I see an entry restartCommand6=/usr/bin/skype, in ~/.kde/share/config/ksmserverrc . I guess this must cause skype to start on login. "rpm -qf" says this file is not owned by any package. But I see on googling that ksmserver is "KDE's session manager". However, I don't see how entries get into this file. The references I find by googling all refer to files that do not exist on my system. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
