I suppose you could cron the start up, but why go to that trouble? If you're
using either of the "main" window managers couldn't you just save the session
and watch it resume after you log back in? I'm fairly positive kcron would do
it, but the folding app runs in user space so why get root involved at all?
<g>
I never shut K-Mail (Kontact now) or Mozilla-Thunderbird (different focus and
e-mail server/accounts) or gkrellm and a few others down. They have their
space and resume in that space when I log out and in or after a reboot and
login. Since I choose to run cooker for testing and since new kernels,
changing init-scripts etc are the norm in testing that's the easiest way for
me.
I stopped using a console (Ctrl+Alt+F1-6) for folding a while back, I just run
it in konsole on desktop 6 and leave it there with any other command line
apps that have to run unattended for long periods.

Charlie
