Autostart sequence

Hello everyone,

is there any possibility to take an influence on a sequence of autostarted applications? i.e. I would like to start an application "abc" as the first one, then application "xyz" and then the rest whith all applications from the saved session.

Thanx for your help.

Re: Autostart sequence

I guess, that xfce starts the applications which are linked in ~/.config/xfce4/autostart/ in inverted alphabetical order, so rename them and make numbers before the filenames. e.g:

01_abc.desktop
02_xyz.desktop
03_efg.desktop

this should first start efg, then xyz and for the last one abc

Well, ok.
That helped with autostarted applications. But how can i make to start them before saved stuff? Or to make the session-manager-saved-stuff on the very end? First the things I want, then the rest.

Re: Autostart sequence

copy "/etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc" to "~/.config/xfce4/xinitrc" open in a text editor add any thing you want to start before
"# Run xfce4-session if installed"
