Different programs are started from different places. Things like the artsd (KDE's sound server) are started by KDE. Some things may start from a saved session (when you log out and leave programs running it will save what those were and what they were last doing if they are session-enabled) Some things can be started using the Autostart directory Some things can start in the global kdmrc file Some are panel applets that are controlled by configuring the panel etc... Now that list may be incomplete but those are KDE specific. There is also the ability to start things with various X facilities like... /etc/X11/Xsession /etc/X11/Xresources ~/.Xresources etc... So it is really up to your needs as to what you want to start/stop and when and where in the process of startup they need to. And none of that includes what can be done with the .profile and .bashrc as well. -- Brian Ashe CTO Dee-Web Software Services, LLC.
