Hi I added Skype into gnome-session-properties. but I see it's annoying when you start your system see it on the first ! So is there a possible way to make it running while its minimized or closed?
Thanks Running Fedora 18 32bit
In the general options you can tick the "Start Skype minimised in the system tray" option
Fedora, rather your desktop environment, cannot control whether skype starts minimized. If skype has the option you can use it to start it in minimized mode where it's only a notification icon.
From what I see, there isn't a command line option, may be something in the GUI?
[ankur@dhcppc1 ~]$ skype --help

Usage: skype [options]
Options:
--dbpath=<path> Specify an alternative path to store Skype data files.
