I do not have a $HOME directory, and hence no Autostart.
Everyone has a $HOME directory. The $ means it's an environment variable. $HOME is a directory with the name the variable HOME contains. This variable is automatically set to be the directory you get when you first login or open a terminal window, typically /home/name or for root /root. For example, when I log in as edlin, my home directory is /home/edlin. When one is in the shell in another directory, one go back by typing cd ~, and you get your $HOME directory.
You can also simply type "cd" to land in your $HOME directory. -rest snipped- Regards, Tim Sunrise in Stockholm today: 8:06 Sunset in Stockholm today: 15:01 My rail transit photos at http://www.kynerd.nu
