That is not true Bilal. You mistook my meaning. I was never talking about any setting for autoconnection. I was and still am talking about the problem, that when you put empathy in the autostart, the status changer in unity's indicator don't work.
This still happens in 12.04 btw.

So i it up in start-up applications in the system preferences using /usr/bin/empathy -h as command line. Empathy starts fine at boot and connects to various networks. But the status switching via the messaging menu is grayed out, while being still available via the application window itself. The only way to resolve this, is to start empathy manually after the system has finished loading. I also tried without -h which would be the default behavior when starting manually, but that doesn't change the behavior with autostart.
