issue trying to add a program using gnome-session-properties (opensuse 11)
 
Hi gents

I'm trying to add conky (resource monitoring small app) to start automatically when my gnome session is starting.

Therefore I used

Code:

/usr/bin/gnome-session-properties
to add it to the startup list and the generated ~/.config/autostart/conky.desktop looks as follows:
Code:

~/.config/autostart> cat conky.desktop

[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=1.0
Name=No Name
Name[en_US]=conky
Comment[en_US]=conky
Comment=conky
Exec=/usr/bin/conky -d
X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=true

conky effectively starts when my gnome session is starting but then immediately disappears..I tried to sleep and stuff but no luck...

anybody has any idea what's going on and how to fix it?

cheers gents
