Thanks for looking at this bug. I did edit by copy and paste from an exec that works to add the commands for example sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid LAUREL which works fine from the xterminal and did work from startup applications. The reason for this command is the automatic connection on raring automatically disconnects hidden wireless WPA which is another bug #1017738. Hardware works fine on 12.04.1 both 12.10 and 13.04 have nm problem connecting to hidden wireless on boot. Since it didn't work from startup I issue it from terminal and works fine.
Now that iwconfig works fine from terminal and did work from startup applications. I've verified the entry several times. Is there any way to verify that the startup applications are ever issued? The other startup command entered by edit by copy and paste from an exec that works into startup commands: xrandr --newmode "1366x768_60.00" 85.25 1366 1440 1576 1784 768 771 781 798 -hsync +vsync the reason for this is the vga external monitor where there's no way for ubuntu to know what the resolution should be. Again this was working from startup on raring until the latest updates. Since it didn't work from startup I issue it from terminal and works fine. Attached is xsession-errors. Some usual unity complaints no failures. ** Attachment added: ".xsession-errors" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-session/+bug/1084045/+attachment/3447928/+files/xsession-errors -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1084045 Title: raring startup applications don't work after latest update To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-session/+bug/1084045/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
