Terry's comments are correct. System-level things should autostart at boot if they're enabled via "systemctl enable blah" or "chkconfig blah on" and the startup scripts don't abort if old PID or "/var/run" files are left around. Note these are SYSTEM services--not user-specific items. > Also, would it allow the gedit processes to be fired up with the > requisite files being edited?? gedit and such are desktop applications and won't autostart unless they're configured to start on session startup. Session startup won't occur until you log in as the desktop user OR you have auto-login of your user set up. > I saw something for ubuntu - dconf-editor, and I've seen some things > within the gconf where you can specify certain processes to be run on > startup. > > But I'm more looking for something I can run, so that if I have a > crash, the system is pretty much back running prior to the crash. If you've snapshotted your session (e.g. under XFCE, go to "Applications", then "Settings", then click on "Session and Startup", select the "session" tab and click the "Save Session" button), then your session should be restored to that state when you log in--but only to the level that the individual applications (and session manager) support session snapshotting. Not all do. I use XFCE with the xfce4-session session manager and xfwm4 window manager and they do a fairly decent job of snapshotting. Not perfect, but reasonably good. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, AllDigital ricks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 226437340 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - If this is the first day of the rest of my life... - - I'm in BIG trouble! - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
