           Summary: Autostart doesn't start a script
    Classification: Xfce
           Product: Xfce4-session
           Version: 4.7.2
          Platform: PC (x86)
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Medium
         Component: General
        AssignedTo: xfce-bugs at xfce.org

If I create a .desktop-file in the autostart-directory that points to a script,
it doesn't execute the script correctly. If in the script is a xfce4-registered
application (like Terminal), unexpectedly it starts, but if the script points
to another command, it doesn't. In the last case, not even the registered
application runs. Curious...

If I run the .desktop-file manually from thunar, it runs correctly...


BTW: It isn't possibly to use any variables (e.g. $HOME) inside a
.desktop-file. But I don't know, where to report this bug
