Manager Startup program in Gnome

Some application must started in X windows environment.
So, I can't set the script as init program.
Hence, I found anther way to achieve my goal.

Gnome allows to add, modify and remove the autostart entries(your script).
This autostart entries will automatically executed after a successful login.

• alt+F2, (open Gnome shell)
• gnome-session-properties
• add shell script, following the GUI.

If you use others desktop program, such as KDE. see [2].
