Autostart Chromium in Lubuntu 12.04

Question

I'm new Lubuntu and I want to start Chromium at boot. I've no idea where to start. Could someone point me in the right direction.

Answer 1

• Press Window key and search for Startup Applications
• Click on Add Button
• Name: Chromium
• Command: /usr/bin/chromium-browser

PS: I use Ubuntu and not Lubuntu but I think it should do the job.

Answer 2

I believe that the answer to your question will also help me solve mine... I am a linux newbie too.

I discovered Lubuntu does not have a "Start up Applications" in the menu. From googling I found that to auto start apps, you have to:

gksudo leafpad /etc/xdg/lxsession/Lubuntu/autostart

I think you can just add a line to this:

@chromium

That is an educated guess. If that doesn't work, try the full path to the executable. Something like:

@/usr/bin/chromium-browser/chromium

Please let me know if that works. I am learning too!
