Tweak your auto start program
January 27th, 2008 | by TualatriX |I’ve made some work on tweaking the auto start program.
The Gnome Sessions has provided the same function, but there’s a little flaw of it. If you remove a item(especially system item, such as Bluetooth Manager), how you can enable it again? You may do the wrong action so you want it auto run again.
So this is Ubuntu Tweak does. Ubuntu Tweak can provide the same function of Gnome Session, and it’s safe to remove the auto start item, because Ubuntu Tweak only mark it hidden. You can always make it appear and auto run again.
Follows the screenshot:
There’s still some work to do, in a few days, Ubuntu Tweak 0.2.6 will come:)

Why don’t you just fix it in upstream instead? Have a look at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=468594
Fixing the problem in upstream means that it’s fixed for all Gnome users, and you don’t need to continue maintaining this functionality in your program if/when the Gnome Sessions dialog is improved.

I’ll try to fix it in upstream. I should practice my C language first.
