generic way to find where something is being called, if you known the name of that something:

enter as your user in terminal:

# su - youruser
$ grep -irs skype . | less

now just need to parse the output, find where its being called (probably .X?? or .x?? or .gnome??), remove it.

 Subject: [CentOS] NUX Skype for Linux
      To: centos@centos.org


I had cause to install the Skype for Linux package from the NUX repo.
I discover that this package is configured to automatically start
Skype whenever one logs on to the Gnome desktop.  This behaviour I do
not wish.  However, there seems to be no option in Skype to turn that
'feature' off. Is there any way to disable this in Gnome or elsewhere?

I will be removing Skype shortly when the present need for it passes
but I do not wish this thing automatically starting in the meantime.
