Hello all!
Everytime I start a new session appears two undesired applets: Printer applet and Kmix. I don't want them starting with the session. How can I get rid off them? I don't want to delete them, just that they don't start with the session.
I use KDE 4.7 in Fedora 16.
Sorry for my english. Thanks in advance!
Hide KMix Applet
Create the file .config/autostart/kmix_autostart.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Hidden=true
Hide Printer Applet
Create the file ~/.config/autostart/printer-applet.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Hidden=true
I learned a new form to hide an autostart program :P thanks for your question!!!
For any program autostarted in /usr/share/autostart create a file with the same name in your ~/.config/autostart with that content. It will start hidden.
Disable autostart of KMix & Printer Applet
Delete the autostart files as root (backup them first if needed)
/usr/share/autostart/kmix_autostart.desktop
/usr/share/autostart/printer-applet.desktop
Maybe, if you update the kde desktop they will be created again. Create a empty file in its place.
Remove completely KMix
yum remove kdemultimedia-kmix kdeutils-printer-applet
In my system I can remove the two package without having to remove anyother.
No. I don't want them hidden, I wan't them disabled. I don't want them running in my session. I don't have any printer and Kmix mistakes my sound, I use PNmixer to control volume. So, I don't want them just hidden, I don't want them at all
Thanks in advance!
