Last modified date 2007 if you trust that to mean anything. Running cruft on the system now to see what it has to report. The list of unexaplained files is big, but outside of 60xprofile and stuff in '/usr/src' it mostly looks like autogenerated stuff. I still have a directory in /usr/src for the 2.4.23 kernel and google tells me that was released Nov 2003, so it's been sometime before that since I've done a clean install. Following unstable the whole time and making the transition from 32bit to 64bit the hard way somewhere along the way. I have had my binge and 'dpkg --purge --force-depends' moments along the way where I looked for and deleted related orphaned stuff before re-installing some or all of the purged packages, but it seems reasonable to expect I didn't get all the orphaned stuff along the way. >> So it looks like '~/.xsessionrc' is way to go. > > For what?

The path mainly, but other things come up once in a while. Seemed like it was short lived, but there was a variable that could be set to make 'Ctrl'+'Alt'+'Backspace' work in your X session. I had a locale issue at one point, so was setting the locale in .profile/.xprofile (whatever worked at the time) for a while, 'till I got that real issue sorted out. These are the things I would use '~/.xsessionrc' for. >> I guess the next question would be.... >> >> Can we expect this to continue working over the long haul with a Wayland >> session or will we have to start putting things into >> '~/.config/autostart/'? > > Pass. > It has it's uses. If I want a program to run independently of what desktop session I am running, I create a .desktop file or grab an existing one and modify it, then put it in '~/.config/autostart/'. https://linuxcritic.wordpress.com/2010/04/07/anatomy-of-a-desktop-file/ I made a copy of '/etc/xdg/autostart/pulseaudio.desktop' in my '~/.config/autostart/' and changed 'Exec=start-pulseaudio-x11' to 'Exec=' so pulse doesn't start automatically but is still available. KDE did have it's own .desktop file for starting pulseaudio, but I don't currently see one in '/etc/xdg/autostart' there may or may not still be one in a KDE specific directory, I do have a pulseaudio-kde.desktop file in my autostart that also has the target of the 'Exec=' line removed.
