Hello all,

Lenovo Dual-Core with OpenSuse 11.2... Just so you know what you're dealing with

I use Basket and I like to have it autostart. In order to do that, I have a script in ~/.kde4/Autostart/ called autostart.script with only the following two lines:

#!/bin/bash
kstart --iconify --skiptaskbar basket

It's executable and the permissions are set correctly.

Goal is to start it minimized without a place in the taskbar so that I can have it running in the system tray. This worked for a while, but recently it hasn't been iconifying any more, so I have a window that I can see when I start up. That's not what I want, since I normally don't need Basket right away. Any idea why that could be happening?

I had also modified the script to:

#!/bin/bash
kstart --iconify --skiptaskbar --skippager basket

to see if I could stop seeing basket when I pressed Alt+Tab. Didn't work, and I think that might be where the problems started. However, since then I've created an entirely new file and its content is exactly as I posted above, without the parameter --skippager. I've also deleted the backup copy in the folder.

When I run the top script by executing it in a KDE session, or when I enter the command into the terminal, it acts the way I want it to.

I've tried exiting Basket before logging out to make sure that KDE's not just restoring my windows.

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
Daniel
