[LXDE] (solved) wicd-client is autostarted, but from where ?

Hi,

I have a strange problem (not really a problem, but this is strange).
Every time I start my computer, wicd-client starts too (which is what I want), but I don't remember where I decided to autostart wicd-client.
I have no display manager, but X starts automatically from /etc/inittab (with startx), and I use the desktop manager LXDE.
I have looked in ~/.xinitrc, ~/.config/autostart, ~/.config/lxsession and ~/.config/openbox, and found nothing.

Do you know of another place where I could have asked wicd-client to start ?

Thank you

Fractal

Presumably it is in your daemons array in /etc/rc.conf - as per the wiki entry:

#edit Just read that you meant wicd-client - disregard...

No, in /etc/rc.conf this is only the daemon.
wicd-client is the graphical interface for wicd, so it can't be launched by /etc/rc.conf.

[ disregard what was previously here, I can't read ]

pacman -Ql wicd | grep desktop

shows that wicd installs /etc/xdg/autostart/wicd-tray.desktop and /usr/share/applications/wicd.desktop .

Thank you!
That was /etc/xdg/autostart/wicd-tray.desktop (and now this is in my .xinitrc )

Good to know, was wondering how it did that too.  For future reference Fractal, mark your posts as solved please to help other readers from unnecessarilyreading the thread.
