Hi,
I see these entries in the warning log:

Now, where is that bad "Exec=" line?
...
Not there.
Found it.
I used "mc" to do a text search for any file containing "/usr/lib/xapps/sn-watcher/xapp-sn-watcher" and found one:
/etc/xdg/autostart/xapp-sn-watcher.desktop:
Desktop Entry] Type=Application Name=xapp-sn-watcher Comment=A service that provides the org.kde.StatusNotifierWatcher interface for XApps Exec=/usr/lib/xapps/sn-watcher/xapp-sn-watcher X-GNOME-Autostart-Phase=Panel
Ok, now I have to decide whether to install that program or remove the desktop file.
(I don't have yet ARCHIVES_15.5.gz, so I'll search on 15.4)

Two different locations for the same file? I do have installed "xapps-common". I'm not sure I want to install "mate".
I believe you have gone toooo far. xapps-common is not your target to fine the missing "Exec=" line. it is contained withing <app>.desktop files which for XFCE are below /etc/xdg/autostart/ or ~/etc/xdg/autostart/ if my searches are correct grep -L Exec= /etc/xdg/autostart/*.desktop ~/exec/xdg/autostart/*.desktop may help you more the xapps-sn-watcher I believe is trying to identify and hstart the files designated for autostart. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet oftc
