What I did was created a file called xscreensaver.desktop with the following contents :
Quote:
#!/usr/bin/env xdg-open
[Desktop Entry]
Exec=xscreensaver
Name=XScreensaver
Type=Application
|
The file has to be executable. ie
Quote:
-rwxr--r-- 1 cliff cliff 118 2010-01-11 13:49 xscreensaver.desktop*
|
I'm running KDE4 and stored the file at
Quote:
/home/cliff/.kde4/Autostart/
|
Every time I log in, what is in the Autostart directory gets run. Of course you have to have xscreensaver installed. Not sure how you autostart on other desktops. If you are not running KDE, you may have to find that out. Hope this helps.
