Re: [SOLVED] Plank autostart

Bunsenlabs Lithium uses ~/.config/bunsen/autostart for the default session. That is the one you need to edit, unless your application is using XDG to autostart.

## BunsenLabs autostart
## ====================
## When you login to your BunsenLabs session, this autostart script
## will be executed to launch any applications
## you want to run at startup.
##
## NB, like openbox's autostart script, this uses the default shell,
## so "bashisms" are not supported.
##
## (Environment variables are set in ~/.config/bunsen/environment.)
##
## Note: some programs, such as 'nm-applet' are run via XDG autostart,
## from .desktop files in /etc/xdg/autostart and ~/.config/autostart.
## To disable this, comment out the last line in this file:
## "bl-xdg-autostart"
##
## Run 'bl-xdg-autostart --list' to list any XDG autostarted programs.
##

Re: [SOLVED] Plank autostart

What is the command you need to start Plank? Add that to ~/.config/bunsen/autostart and then log out/in, or openbox --reconfigure

Read the autostart file and see how other commands have been used, Preferences > Bunsenlabs > Edit autostart

Open your file manager (keyboard shortcut Ctrl+f). Show hidden folders and files (Ctrl+h). Navigate to /.config/bunsen and open the autostart file. Scroll down to where tint2, compton and conky are being started and after those entries (or anywhere near or the end of the file, make it the last line is fine too) add a new line...

plank &

Save the file! Log out, done. It should start when you log back in. Post back if it doesn't!

I don't care what you do at home. Would you care to explain?
