I have this also in Ubuntu GNOME 14.04. Seeing albet fishnet's comment, I tried using gksu in my menu entry. That does not work. Nor does gksu from the terminal. sudo in the terminal will work, but I get the following errors: WARNING : Shell not installed or running WARNING : Error detecting shell Traceback (most recent call last): File /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gtweak/tweaks/tweak_group_shell_extensions.py, line 284, in __init__ raise Exception(Shell not running or DBus service not available) Exception: Shell not running or DBus service not available WARNING : Shell not running None WARNING : Error loading desktopfile: /home/randyb/.config/autostart/gshared.desktop INFO: GSettings missing key org.gnome.nautilus.desktop (key computer-icon-visible) Eventually, tweak tool will open with the Start Up plus button working properly. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1316289 Title: unable to add startup applications in gnome-tweak-tool To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-tweak-tool/+bug/1316289/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1316289] Re: unable to add startup applications in gnome-tweak-tool
Just an FYI: I was having this problem in Ubuntu 14.10 Gnome edition. Running tweak tool as sudo ( sudo gnome-tweak-tool ) allows me to add and remove startup applications. It aso allows me to make other changes that running tweak tool in a non-su capacity would not allow me to do. Maybe a patch that gives tweak tool SU by default might be a better long term fix. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1316289 Title: unable to add startup applications in gnome-tweak-tool To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-tweak-tool/+bug/1316289/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

So, I've opened usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gtweak/tweaks/tweak_group_startup.py but, to be honest i don't have the faintest clue of what to do next. Could you point me please? As a workaround, i just copied the respective *.desktop file from /usr/share/applications/ to ~./.config/autostart and it's loading my app at login now.

Ah, forgot to mention.
