Hmm. Then I do still wonder why I've not been asked. I have a KDE desktop 
environment, but I thought that was supported. Although I'm not sure that 
KDE supports /etc/xdg/autostart. Starting kerneloops-applet manually 
works, but does not result in anything.

Any checks/tests I can do to see what's missing?

For Matthew:
- running '/etc/init.d/dbus restart' will kill any active kerneloops
  daemon
- accidentally running '/etc/init.d/kerneloops start' as normal user will
  result in a "permission denied" for the PID file, but also in kerneloops
  being started for that user (looking at 'ps ax'), which seems incorrect

Cheers,
FJP
