Add application to Startup Application using script.

How do I put particular application on system startup on my Fedora 15.

For instance if I want to start my Firefox browseron system startup how do I achieve this?

What have I done so far is, I just created a simple shell scrip and put the command of starting a Firefox browser in that and placed that shell script in /etc/ini.d/ directory.

#!/bin/bash /usr/bin/firefox

Please point me to a right

I need to run my QT GUI application immediately when my linux system starts. I do not need any other things apart from this QT GUI application ..

I am running on Ubuntu 12.04 and would like to run an application on startup, in a maximized terminal, selected. I solved all problems exept the last one. so for now i have

gnome-terminal --maximize -x /home/user/myapp

which runs the application in a maximized terminal, but it is never selected that inputs are possible. the system should work without keyboard and mouse (only barcode scanner)

I have a cron that checks if there are pending mails to be sent each minute:

*/1 * * * * /usr/bin/curl http://localhost/path/application.php >> /var/log/application.log

This script is working for years without problems.

hy, i have a python script. It works. example:

Code: #!/usr/bin/env python print "hello world" i have put this script in the startup applications (system -> preference -> startup application)

i don't know if this script work at the boot.

I am new to Linux & looking forward to start application (which toggles a led every 10 sec). I have written the application program & it is working fine but now I want to start it automatically on boot.

The documentation here says to copy the startup script to the /etc/init.d directory and make a symbolic link to the copied script in the rc.d directory.

What should be the extension and n

I'm running Ubuntu 11.10. When I attempt to use the dash to search for an application immediately after log in, the search is unresponsive.

I created a java tcp server socket application. This program must always start when the PC boots up. From my research so far, I believe the correct way to achieve this is to run the application as a daemon process. I will use Upstart to start the appplication.

I have a samba server which is serving a mixture of files. One main application uses a data file and creates a temporary working execution file at startup and holds that temp execution file open for the duration of the program's execution (but doesn't use the file at all after initial startup).
