Yes there is desktop files in /etc/xdg/autostart, and there is desktop files in /usr/share/applications that contains X-GNOME-Autostart-* keys. I don't know if desktop files in /usr/share/applications are used if they contains autostart keys even if these files are not placed in /etc/xdg/autostart. I don't know. On my system, some desktop files in /etc/xdg/autostart are softlinks to /usr/share/applications, but not all are.
By the way, it means autostart candidates can be listed this way: ls -1 /etc/xdg/autostart/*.desktop and perhaps also: grep -R 'X-GNOME-Autostart-' /usr/share/applications/ | cut -f1 -d: | sort -u To disable one of them, just copy it in ~/.config/autostart/ and add the line: X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=false -- Thomas DEBESSE 2016-05-04 16:20 GMT+02:00 Christoph Schulz <ch.sch...@joinout.de>: > Am Dienstag, den 03.05.2016, 17:44 +0800 schrieb Chenxiong Qi: > > Hi, > Hey :) > > > > I recently noticed that there are a few programs launched > > automatically that I don't use anymore or I don't want to use it so > > far at least, such as gnome-software and evolution-calendar-factory. > > I > > tried to closed them from tweak tools, but Statup Application does > > not > > list all the programs except VMware User Agent (I actually don't know > > which packages installed it).
