That would depend on o GUI desktop manager, Gnome, KDE, LXDE, XFCE, Openbox, Enlightenment, Fvwm, Fluxbox, Window Maker, IceWM, Blackbox, Afterstep, ... o release/version of the desktop manager o whether it is to be a global or user level setting o release/version of your OS install You would think there would be blurb in the desktop user documentation. Of course there is the option of looking through the start up scripts. :) While waiting for a specific answer to your post, you might look through files in /etc/X11/xinit or /etc/X11/ > I am spending hours of irritable searching > for files placed there for someone else to edit,. and manually fixing perms. That is what cron/batch jobs are for. :) man find
