Description Florian Jacob 2016-04-16 13:37:55 UTC

Despite the „start rsibreak automatically on login“ option being enabled by default, rsibreak does not start after login.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install rsibreak
2. reboot


Actual Results:  
rsibreak did not start.

Expected Results:  
rsibreak started and the applet is visible in the system tray.

I found the line
```
X-KDE-autostart-condition=rsibreakrc:General:AutoStart:false
```
in `/etc/xdg/autostart/rsibreak_autostart.desktop`. If I understand X-KDE-autostart-condition right, this should actually be
```
X-KDE-autostart-condition=rsibreakrc:General:AutoStart:true
```
to use the config option right.

what is the value of AutoStart in your
.config/rsibreakrc
file?

Comment 2 Florian Jacob 2016-04-19 19:54:57 UTC

It was directly after installation, so the config file didn't exist at all.

I did some testing and was very irritated by the behaviour, I thought the results might be wrong due to automatic session restore.

I now found http://l10n.kde.org/docs/admin/autostart-and-runonce.html and that I made a wrong assumption, I thought the false in /etc/xdg meant the needed value of the setting to autostart is false, which turned out to be wrong: “The value true at the end of the line is used as default value if the key or config file is not present.”

In case it's intentional to start rsibreak automatically on login but requiring that it was started manually once, everything is fine. ;) Sorry for the noise!

Yes, we want the user to start it at least once, it's the least intrusive thing to do.

Thanks alot for maintaining rsibreak then, it's a really useful tool to me. :)
