It's a bug, but I think there's an easy fix, mind filing a bug @ bugzilla.redhat.com against kdepim for tracking purposes?
In short, it's autostart file lives under /usr/share/autostart (used only by kde4) and not /etc/xdg/autostart
Thanks for the confirmation.
But can I ask a basic layman question..
How come the autostart file is in a root-only location like /usr/share/autostart or /etc/xdg/autostart? Shouldn't it be in a ordinary-user-writable location instead? Otherwise, how come an ordinary user starting KOrganizer gets permissions to install an auto-start file in these root-only locations? And if one user chooses to autostart KOrganizer, won't it be enabled for other users too?
Thanks and regards,
