Auto-start apps

SuSe 9.3/GNOME

Where do I go to configure apps to start when the OS is booted? (And where
to remove apps from startup?)

Thanks,
Bryen

If they are servers with a script in /etc/init.d, go there as root and do
insserv script-name

e.g.,
innserv apache2

That does it.

KDE restarts any apps I have open automatically.

That depends on whether you want them to start on boot, or when a user logs
in or starts the desktop. For example, if when the system boots,
there's /etc/boot.local or /etc/after.local. If logging in to a terminal,
you could use one one of the bashrc or profile scripts. If when the
desktop starts, there's the autostart folder etc.
