Start on login doesn't work

[Juan Simón]

I have activated "Start Real-time Sunlight Wallpaper on login" and "gtk-sunlight --nodisplay" is added to the init programs of gnome session but when I login in my session the wallpaper is the last showed when I shut-down the computer and it doesn't change.

Maybe this is useful?

For me too similar problem is happening. Actually the wallpaper is only updating when we click the apply or OK button otherwise it is not refreshing, while we run the program, neither it is updating upon log in.

[BrownieBoy (mike-brown-hotmail)]

Same for me, as for Ray. The map only updates if I open up the app and click the Apply button. I have the Start ... on Login checkbox ticked.

Syslog shows the following error on start up:

gtk-sunlight[1832]: segfault at 0 ip 008c919a sp bffcc0cc error 4 in libc-2.11.1.so[856000+153000]

I'm on Ubuntu 10.04 Desktop Generic, but with AMD processor.

Thank you everyone for the report. This issue should now be fixed

[Ray (arindom-ray)]

Thanks for the fix. For me it seems to be working.
