Thanks for your help! It's indeed about the permissions/ownership:
$ touch ~/.config/autostart/test touch: cannot touch `/home/nano/.config/autostart/test': Permission denied $ ls -lah ~/.config/autostart total 12K drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K 2007-05-29 18:21 . drwx------ 6 nano nano 4.0K 2007-05-31 05:49 .. -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 108 2007-05-29 18:21 beagled.desktop Quite strange though, mmm, maybe that Beagle installation somewhat messed the permissions there. I think I've installed it using Automatix, so I'll report with them too, and of course now that you helped me identifying the problem I'll chmod/chown that directory and try again using the interface. So again thanks much mein freund +1 karma for you! -- Session does not persist after reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/118495 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
